Really liking your customs. The Fett series is really cool. I like the Trandoshan too. I actually have the Arleil Schous that was made by JACKOFTRADZE sitting in my cantina display. Originally it was owned by Von Frost, but I bought it from him when he was selling off his collection. He had a lot of great JACKOFTRADZE figures. Keep up the good work

Thanks again Tamer! Wookie-balls thank you...it was kind of a thrown together custom done to experiment with creating rusted and worn look and I'm really happy with how it turned out. Glad to see others are as well. Darthdaddy you lucky dog! he. I would love to have some of his figures and FYI the young Boba Fett was inspired by something similar I had seen on your site. Also can't wait to see your trandoshans when you finish them. Mr.jedi1977 thank you. You would think that the Wedge would have been easy (I certainly did) but it required a ittle more work that I was expecting. Glad he turned out how he did.

Very Cool! Great Work and Welcome to the Yards!

I am on custom overload looking at these. Hard to choose a favorite from the sith lord or the anakin pilot. Great stuff!

Nice work, the Anakin is looking sharp! The Mon Cal Jedi looks pretty sweet too, I like the soft goods on him.

Thank you. I try to give credit where credit is due and I know that I saw a custom on here of Baron Fel that was the inspiration for the Anakin figure but I can't remember who made the figure. Also to some of the more experienced guys on here; I'm working on a few sets of figures based of the Jurassic Park franchise for my son and have run into a problem with one of the figs. The jacket I am using is very pliable and the paint keeps chipping off. I have tried to seal it the traditional way and when that didn't work I tried glue but I encountered the same problem. Any suggestions?

One update for the night: When I saw this figure a few years I knew it would make a great base for Valance the Hunter. Once I had finished putting it together I realized I liked the black and grey better than the blues from the comic. Originally he had an interchangeable head but I ended up using it on a second battle damaged version. I think I would like to go back and redo the battle damaged one at some point because I was experimenting with different things and looking at it now I am not entirely happy with how it turned out. To me it's just to messy I guess. Anyway enjoy!
