Your work is very impressive, and so many great choices.  You mentioned that you didn't think it was 100% accurate, but I think that's part of the fun of making a custom: designing it to your own tastes.  Regardless, he is very cool, the paint apps are crisp and clean, and his skin tone and imperfections were captured very well.  He's excellent!

Oh I agree totally man, making customs is all about putting your own spin on a character. I put that in there because I get a lot of comments from the "accuracy committee" (which is what I call some posters anyway) telling me every detail that isn't right. Already though, I have been reading through a lot of the threads here and I do not see that at all here!!!! 

Thanks for the compliments everyone!!!

Absolutely amazing, Malgus looks great, Big fan of Cade Skywalker as well. Always thought they could have done more w/ that character. The arms did it, thinking of making an attempt on it myself, hopefully I can capture the details of Cades tattoos as well as you did. Thanks for sharing your work.

No problem! Here is the recipe...

Head= Red Skull
Torso= Draco or Krieg (doesn't matter)
Upper arms= Concept Snowtrooper
Lower arms= Clone Commando
Legs/lower torso= Vader
Feet= Clone Commando
Saber= PoC Storm Shadow weapon with red blade attached
Hood= TVC Sidious (the latest offering)
The rest is bits and sculpt work

I am impressed with your shades and washes technique and the colors application & smoothness... can you color me green?... envy green (lol).

Patty is right "designing it to your own tastes" is where the fun begins, accuracy is a must in a commission work for a client but in my opinion is overrated especially in a galaxy like SW where the Millennium cockpit outside doesn't fit the insides properly, the blasters change from scene to scene and teddy bears beats the Empire. lol
