Sneaking in at the last minute, heres my entry to the EPVII contest! I'm realitively new to customizing, but I was so excited with the theme this time around that I just had to dive in and create the whole cast!
From left to right, Jaina Solo, Gai Akbar, Convoy Escort Stormtrooper, Jedi Master Luke, Darth Mon'Doom, R2-D2, C-3p0, Imperial Tracker, and Brax Skywalker. I didn't wanna take up too much room with individual photos of every figure, so I just picked a few of my favorites for close ups here. I'll probably start a custom thread soon and post more there, along with my other customs. Anyways, starting off with my personal favorite of the group,
Gai Akbar!
The son of Admiral Akbar, Gai chose not to follow in his fathers legendary footsteps, instead becoming a mercenary and bounty hunter. Rather then go the typical route of trying to blend in, Gai dresses as flamboyantly and stylishly as possible, doing everything he can to get noticed in pursuit of his dream of becoming the most famous bounty hunter in the galaxy. The question is, will his talents be put to use in service of the Alliance, or the Imperial Remnant?
Darth Mon'Doom, Sith Master, former apprentice of Asaj Venteress, and leader of the Imperial Remnant. I wanted a masochistic, Hellraiser meets Star Wars look for this guy, and I'm pretty happy with how he turned out. My original plan was to sculpt Darth Maul horns onto him but, alas, I ran out of time
The
Imperial Tracker is a special, highly trained class of Stormtrooper in service to the Empire. Sent to far off worlds and space stations, the Tracker is willing to go to the ends of the galaxy in pursuit of his target. As the Empires strength and numbers continue to dwindle, the role of the Tracker becomes more and more important, his guerilla fighting tactics resembling the Rebellion of old.
The Imperial
Convoy Escort Trooper serves as the first line of defense aboard shipping and medical convoys, in addition to serving aboard fuel depots and "Imperial Shipyards." (See what I did there?) More than anything else, this one was about creating a cool trooper, haha.
