[Tamer]

Awesome! Hey dabooma is that a cast backpack?

[DaBooma]

Thanks guys for the compliments!

AjuntaPall, it's GI Joe Wraith's backpack.

Well Surfs up. Looks awesome.

Hey guys! It's been a while.

I've becoming a HUGE fan of Marauder Task Force figures, and thought it would be cool to work on a custom of what Boba Fett's armor would have been like, during the Clone Wars, and before he modified it with jets. And bounty hunted for Jabba Hutt to finance his 'Vette. Wicky, Wicky. Its only appropriate to call his armor marauder, since this is a Marauder figure.

One thing to note. The Prequels are garbage and are all wrong. Boba is not a clone of Jango, doesn't inherit his "dad's" ship and he's not a young man when we see him in Empire.http://starwarscollector.com/photo/orange/boba_412/412pic/412cbl.jpg

He's a seasoned, hardened, trained super commando during the Clone Wars, and obviously much older. And I loved the idea of Boba looking similar to Jeremy Bulloch.

The entire figure is a Marauder Task Force soldier, I cut the range finder/antenna and mask from an old Jango, then used a silver marker to add some abrasions and added a few Mando water decals.

Awesome.  Those marauder figures are indeed great to make customs of, especially mandos.  Besides myself, your the only other person I've seen use them for mandos.

Here's 2 I made:

Looks great! I haven't purchased any of the Marauder figures yet, but I've been looking at them.

[Tamer]

Wow, wow, wow. I like it. You can read more of my comments on the front pages.

There's a hundred Mando customs out there, but this one is really good.
Your base figure is great.  I have to look into the marauder figures.
Your armor is excellent.  What bits and pieces of other figures did you use?
That is an amazing paint job.  Love the weathering and wear.
Where did you get the head?  He does look like a broad face Jeremy Bulloch.  Is the helmet hollow or does it swap with the head?

Thanks for the compliment guys!

I didn't use any other pieces from other figures, other than just cutting the face part of Jango's helment and gluing it to the Marauder helmet

I'm working on a Rebel pilot as well, but trying to find the right vest, or a cast of Renegades Airtight's vest.

[AjuntaPall]

That xwing pilot looks like great potential bro. Cant wait to see the outcome. Cool boboba too 

[Tamer]

I am gonna have to change the xwing code for that smile.

Anyhow, loving some of that Marauder stuff. Gonna have to check out those guys.

Time to get your Rebel Pilot on the fp. I like the background on that figure too!

[DaBooma]

Hey guys! Here's a few customs I recently finished. A Rebel Pilot in Marauder Armor, complete with his own droid I call him R0-B1, or Robi. And a few other pilots I did a while ago, just as diorama filler.

Pilot is made from Marauder Task Force Figure, with the 5 POA X-Wing Luke's helmet. Vest is from a GI Joe Airtight.  Droid is a Power Rangers Alpha head and an old R2 body.

Enjoy!

[Tamer]

Nice very nice. Off to share.

Still kinda wondering if your main pilot needs a flight harness. Course I am a bit biased as I just walked around in said flight harness last weekend.
