Yes well done! I believe his name should be "Mandalore the Spectacular."

Absolutely phenomenal!  I love the group pic with the lady Jedi and droid...definitely has me thinking Middle Ages  with the Mando as knight and the Jedi as Robin Hood.  Don't know if that was intentional or not, but cool nonetheless!

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

Know you.. I find that things turn out best if I let them become what they want to become. If that makes any sense.... I definitely like the way the aesthetic is heading and your assessment of the characters seems plausible. I did have a more Grey-ish Jedi in mind when I made the Jedi. Jolee Bindo is one of my all time favorite jedi and I always thought that his attitude towards the force was sensible, preferring balance rather than leaning to one side or the other. He is a good example of a Robin Hood-like Jedi. Once I get further along with my Star Wars, figures I'll put more time into some backstories.

Amazingly, Spectacular rendition of what the Star Wars is: Endless possibilities to inspire and leave many in awe.  I have seen this with many of our colleagues here and now with you.  Thank you for sharing your creations with us.  Can't wait to see more!

So have been experimenting and am pleased with the results. I figured you guys would get the biggest kick out of my endeavor, so i'll post it here first.





Not bad for a prototype. I went for making the wires discrete, rather than making myself crazy trying to conceal them completely. Looking at it now I guess  I could have made the terminal a little smaller, but oh well.  Anyhow, I hope you kinds like it.  Comments and questions, welcome.

I was very happy just seeing the great figures you made, and then I nearly fell from my chair when I saw that lightsaber.
You've got some serious style and talent, sir! Well done!
