Cool Fettator. I still think a BVP (Boba vs. Pred) movie would be so awesome. Can't wait to see the helmet on this figure....  bbfet

Wow, that turned out great. It will be sporting on our front page soon. What a great idea for a crossover custom.

I really enjoyed this one.

Here's a custom I kitbashed, used some soft goods, and little paint. Sith Lord Dod. I carded him with a new template I made for a What If Series, being what if Dod was a sith lord. Pretty much gives me free reign to do what I want.







Here's a side by side of a vintage boba I wanted to clean up next to an original. WHen I first got this it looked absolutely terrible. I need to start taking before and after shots.



Just for Fun here's a Boba group shot


And since I got my new laminator as seen below



I started making some more cards. Here's my potf2 blue snag custom carded.



New Trilogo Template made

Pretty cool new What If Series. Had to get one of those new carded Bobas on the front page though.

Nice use of that laminator. I would love to see a video sometime of start to finish where you custom design the card to printing it, to putting it on the cardstock to laminating it to putting the bubble on, etc. We are gonna have to get you on an episode of CAFN to just go over that whole process if you are game?

DS, that new Fett card back is awesome!  Great image choice for the backdrop.  I love the Fett variation figs you've put together recently; great seeing them displayed here all together.

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

Sure, I'm game. I will try to make a template in the next couple of days using freeware image editing programs like photoscape or pixlr so that those who don't have access to photoshop can follow along with the directions. I had made a series of 2 videos a while back but since then my process has changed slightly. I switched from using glossy photo paper and spray adhesive to using glossy photo sticker paper, because that was the most annoying and messy step. I also have a better tool for rounding corners now. I siwtched from using glue to hold on the bottom part of the bubble to using double sided invisible tape. Anyway I can explain that and all later.



Thanks everyone for the kind words. I really like those old trilogo cards so I had to make up a template for them. Don't know why I've been on a boba/mandalorian kick recently but it's been fun. Anyways, here's some pics of the beginning of my Dark Times wave carded.

Bomo's tail was too long to fit in the bubble correctly, that's why he's angled. :(




And the back of the wave

Cool on those answers.
