Jess looks fantastic. Such a great job lengthening the legs and those pants. That fabric looks tops. I can see where you glued it together! On the front page.

Loved seeing the details on how you reworked Leia to create Jess. Great stuff!
I dabble in the Star Wars Universe of Toys... I rip apart little plastic people and turn them into other plastic people. Sometimes I take pictures of them and post them.

If I'd known it would go to the front page, I would have photo shopped some flames in the background.

Love it !

Lucas thought a scene was too racy for the kiddies... yet he left the Twi'lek boobs in the final cut. Classy.
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

Thanks Smeagol. I hadn't noticed.  My OCD made me sit and watch the scene frame by frame to catch it.  It was like ONE frame. ::)

Hey Yarders

I've been busy with a few projects and commissions which I haven't finished yet.  I think I was in a rut because my last two customs were females and I in the process of making 5 other female customs.  I needed something with testosterone quick, so here's a simple touch-up.

Can you believe I haven't opened my TVC Kithaba yet?  I only have the brown bandanna version, so of course in the interest of screen accuracy, I had to tweak my opener.  Once I got started, I couldn't stop.  Kithaba is a great figure, but Hasbro left him so bland, and the mismatched  joint colors of didn't help.

Here's what I did.
1.  Painted the bandanna red. (Duh!)
2.  Detail painted the face.  I got a nice vein on his forehead, that I couldn't capture on the camera. 
     I painted the gums a nasty grey, pink, and separated the teeth,
3.  Dremelled down the ball joints, dabbed on primer and paint and put on a teeny, tiny application of acro-cyanate glue as a sealer. 
     So far it's holding nicely.
4.  Weathered the leather pouches, belts and boots.
5.  Added shadowing.
6.  Detailed the monotone pistol and staff.











 



Thanks
More soon.

Wow, now that was some tweak! Looks great! On our front page it looks great too.
