Really like your Bo-Katan paint colors. The red mando colors turned out great. I also really like the lego shield on the mando. Very creative and resourceful. Can't wait to see more from you.

I will be honest, I don't think I would change the hair on that head. If anything maybe just get another head to put on there like Shae Vizla or the Avengers Widow or maybe even that new Marvel Aurora (per CH's latest parts post) would look good painted up.

Awesome!  I always love Mandos.  No end to what you can do with them.

Clone Troopers are my joint favourite customs so here's a batch I finished in my two week marathon. Again, these were started a while back but only got round to finishing them.



Gregor, Lock, Banks, Wolffe and Havoc.



As I said before I hate weathering. Gregor came out OK and I am happy with the result.



I wanted to do a different version of Wolffe and used the aerial assault helmet on Evolutions body. Havoc is a hotch potch of ideas. I started doing the Turbo Tank Crew, with black shoulders and looked around for a way to make the CW style chest armour but to no avail. As I had a spare Keller I decided to use this a alternate armour. Finally, Havoc had such distinctive head paint I had to incorporate into this guy.

My final one for today as a total scratch built.

Series 6 'Fives'

The only think wrong is he has a heavy 'tache which I'm going to redo.

Happy Mothers Day to your wives and mums in the UK.

Hey great work on your customs! Really liking the mandos! I always hated those solid sculpt Jango Fett legs, but with your paint I would have no issues proudly displaying those on my shelves :D Keep cranking out the excellent ideas!

Thank you. I am working on two more Mando's which are part painted at the mo which you will see soon. Shame they are not so vivid as the Clones. The Supercommando has a good colour scheme.

So here's my final batch of figures I completed in my two week marathon.



R2-O1 (Jabbas drinkserver)
Delta Squad R5 - U8-C4? Working slowly through the Delta squad when I get the fodder.
and R2-CQ. I didn't like the head that came with Yoda's Starfighter so I came  up with this chequerboard Idea. But I didn't have a body. After abandoning several Tatooine and Rebel R5s I put it to use to finish CQ. I may revisit with a checquerboard design later.

Other styles of figures I touched on during this time is 5inch

The War Doctor set came with The War Doctor, Moment and alternate head for Doctor 8. Paul had to have a body so this is a 'Dark Eyes' rendition using a 'Primeval' figure.


And if you were wondering what I was doing with my daughter and her lego...
Surf dudes and life guard.

The only other figure I did but haven't photod yet is my Nightsister Caris.

Finally, here's a teaser for later. A clone I'm working on.



Thanks for your comments, keep them coming

Suffering with a bit of nerves on that one. Once I make the first 'cut'...

Hey Buddy! Nice work you have here. I love that Brethup Ewok and the R4-Bad1, Satine and Obi-Wan are cool too. The Dr. Who figures rock as well... we could use a few more Who customs around here! Great stuff and nice to see you posting my friend.
