 Thanks for the kind words--and the front page!

A few more of my cantina denizens:

Tonnika sisters, head sculpt inspired by Jack-of-Tradze


Garouf Lafoe--though I'm pretty sure Peter Diamond was more follicularly challenged, I liked the head sculpt



"Little Aunt Beru"--another good use for a peg warmer


The Moisture Farmer Formerly Known As Ariq Joanson

Is... is that Colm Meaney?

I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

Thanks!  Finally got around to painting a few of those cargo crates up--they're really quite nice!

I'd be happy to hook you up with something to cast, if you like.  Will PM you for the details.

I agree, these are fantastic! Off to share.

I really like the Lead Engineer with that data pad.

Nice customs. Did you do the heads yourself?

Glad these are so well received--the praise means a lot from this group of artists!

The heads were individually sculpted from Apoxie sculpt.  Initially the antennae were as well, however, they tended to be a bit fragile.  I redid the antennae and mouthparts in a flex Sculpey product to allow for some flexibility, and they seem to be holding up much better.

I should add that I was inspired by I-Am-Boba-Fett's Clone Wars-styled Verpine Jedi, but wanted to blend with Vintage Collection figures.  He has this posted in his thread.  It's worth checking out.
