Benjani, these are great customs, and I'd love to put them on the front page!  Do you have any closer, clearer pics of these?  The ones you posted here are a bit fuzzy and small and won't show up well, but your work definitely needs to be displayed!

sorry phatty,only just checked in...........had the kids at mine the weekend,been a bit busy. I'll see if i can clear up some photo's of the finished figures or take some better ones.

Glad you like them,also i got a diorama in progress and making just the figure to finish it off a dream. Also another vehicle custom,waiting on some materials and custom bits off ebay though....may take a while.

Just a little update....... plenty of photo's to go up,been working on a diorama this week and it's taken up much spare time.

Will re-take the wip and sith photo's after the weekend,I'll try the digital camera instead of the iphone.
All customs are on hold the weekend,the missus has booked in an engineer for monday to rip out and re-fit new loft insulation so the whole lot (hoth shelf included) has to come down and make room for them to work aaagh.

Got Rako Hardeen looking pretty good,body sculpting nearly done. Lord Maleval,Darth Wyyrlok III,Darth Tenebrous,Mird(Walon Vau's pet strill),blue ghostrider,should all be posted during the week

I got fed up clearing out the loft space of the collection,had another go at rako........wasn't happy with the head so i made a siligum mold of pre vizsla's head,nubbed it using a CW mando torso i butchered.
Instead of epoxy resin i used milliput epoxy putty,takes longer to cure but it's more workable when near cured,just when it was firm enough to pop out the mold i took a scalpel to his hair and gave him a trim,i reckon it looks spot on.

Just gotta sand the body a touch more,made the sniper rifle and ready tomorrow for painting.....how's your's coming along??

Just finished Rako.........body was a CW mando,shaved off armour and holsters in certain places and built up the bodywarmer and knee parts with milliput,the Mcquarrie helmet was just too small so had to be cast in 2 pieces and extended to fit over the modified Vizsla head. Head was cast from milliput so it could be trimmed before fully curing. Sniper rifle boshed from bits of missiles,blasters and a bit of hardwood for the angled undersection.
