Your hired, this mando can join my crew anyday, nice color scheme, I'm customizing a jodo kast figure into a Mando with a very similiar color scheme. But the head, you didn't have to do all that sculpting, you look like Rock & Roll from GI Joe could have just took his head LOL.

THNX wheeljack - U'r the 2nd person to tell me I resemble Rock & Roll - LOL - that head sculpt came that way... it's a custom cast from SlayerDesignStudio - so no sculptin' on this custom @ all... :)

Hey, is SlayerDesignStudio still around?  I keep going to their website and it says "Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)".

SDS is still around - they're "re-doing" how their store... or I should say STORES, are set up... there are now (4-6) distribution hubs that carry their inventory... here is a link to the new forum -

Yet another WiP to add to the GROWIN' pile... my TOR era Mandalorian... I went w/ a less tech heavy look - light body armor... NO rocketpack... padded greaves & just simple forearm bracers... I also like that some Mandos are depicted w/o the traditional T-visor in some instances durin' this era... LMK what'cha think & I could use some color suggestions - my wife thinks multi-greens w/ my usual tan & brown treatments... I haven't done a lot of greens, but, I'm also considerin' some shades of yellow - maybe both? Also - the GI Joe PoC Dusty upper torso fits the Kashyyyk trooper lower torso, once ya crack the lower & replace the shorter SW peg w/ a longer JOE part & then it's REALLY loose between the 2 - so ya gots to pack some epoxy up N2 the upper torso to fill the void...

This TOR Mando is gonna be sick!  I especially like the kitbashed blaster...almost all of my Mandos have custom weaponry too. I think it adds to the individuality of the character.

I think this has become my favorite Mando of the ones you've done recently (and he's not even finished yet)!

I love the helmet variation and the Cap'n America boots add nicely to this guy's infantry look; I recently used the same boot over a pair of Count Dooku SA legs and they really do like nice.

I support the use of a bit of yellow on this guy, whether it's stripes or just a patch of shoulder armor, but the color isn't one that used often and the tans/greens could benefit from a splash of color...

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Ok, so I decided to go w/ just 1 color along w/ the muted earthtones - green was just very garish to me... I really like this subdued school bus yellow... This guy actually turned out to be more heavily armored than I had originally thought... I also wanted to do some outdoor pics - it was such a nice MANDO morning...
