Merc that is awesome work! Love the sculpting work and the fresh look of the design! Can't wait for more!!!

Thanks; I'm glad with how it turned out---even if it's rather basic.  I mean, I'm no SithFire, that's for sure! 

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

Really love the look of your new Jedi.  Really liking the use of Aves on your figures too.  I have always admired your custom figures and seeing you breaking out the Aves is really exciting.  Can't wait to see some more figures now that you have thrown another tool in your box.

Nice Ray, I think we could all see Luke looking like this for our next movie.

Ray, had to use your Grand Jedi Luke on the front page for an update.

Also folks, please do not forget when you submit your final pics here you also want to go here:

http://www.yakfaceforums.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=7121&sid=e9b519948c2dde7e8873a323602201e7&start=15

to also submit your entry as there are going to be two random prize winners in addition to the grand prize winner. These random prize winners will just have their names put into a hat and one will be drawn. If you enter at both places you will get your name entered twice.

I'm not eligible of course, but I'm working on a couple of figures - Han Solo and Junior.

I'm on a 19 day solid deployment - not sure if I'll get time to finish my other two figs :(

Pulled a 16 hour shift yesterday and 13 today! Still all the extra cash will be going to my Wookiee Cave!!

I've not made a Star Wars custom for years but I think I might have a go at this.

We figured since we are judging our own contest and we can't submit entries that Customs for the Kid should definitely support others in the community by participating in our friend's event in the meantime.  

Here are the entries we threw together.  Just background characters. Although, if there is one thing that can be said about Star Wars, it is that the background characters even have great tales told about them along the way.  Here are our characters, but their stories are still a work in progress.  Hopefully we'll have them done by the end of the contest.

I see a lot of folks I recognize here.  Finally got around to posting.  Here are a few Episode VII characters I'd like to see.  Jagged Fel, Jaina Solo-Fel, Jacen Solo, NJO Luke, and Han Solo
