Psyclone's Custom Figures - Sith Lord Darth Teloc
« on: August 13, 2009, 07:47:59 PM »
Darth Teloc

This one was made many years ago.  It's a generic Sith Lord that I just made up and put together using various parts and named Darth Teloc.

   

   









Imperial Turbo Tank or AT-ST Driver

My first post here in IS.  I have been looking around the past few days and thought I'd go ahead and post. Some of you may have seen my posts on Rebelscum but for those who haven't...

These guys were made before I saw that Hasbro is releasing a Scanning Tech figure.   I'd been waiting for years for a figure like that to use for these guys and just couldn't wait.

Head - Imperial Officer (Blonde version)
Helmet - POTF2 AT-ST Driver (hollowed out)
Chin Strap - Death Star Trooper Helmet
Goggles - General Veers (cut and shaped)
Goggle strap - Elastic (glued to goggles)
Torso - AT-ST Driver
Field Harness and holster - GI Joe (Firefly vs GI Joe Troopers Multipack)
Pistol in holster - GI Joe
Electrobinoculars - Sandtrooper
Communications box with antenna -Death Star Gunner helmet.
Upper arms - Moff Jerjerrod
Lower arms - AT-AT-Driver
Control box on sleeve - AT-ST Driver
Hands - TIE Pilot (I think)
Belt - Imperial Officer
Legs - AT-AT Driver
Boots - POTF2 TIE Pilot

Paints - Polyscale Light Gray, Model Master Acryl black, gloss black and silver, Model Master Acryl Medium Gray (helmet)
Imperial logos - Erikstormtrooper.com

The figure can sit with knees bent due to the use of the AT-AT Driver legs, the goggles can be brought down over the face or removed, head turns, arms and elbows move, boots turn and  gloves turn. That's it.  Now I have to make another one.

Imperial Field Trooper (Idea also taken from "To the Last Man")

 

AT-ST Driver

Great stuff! How/where did you get the combat  harnesses?

Why go through life base fig, when you can customize?

Those turned out really nice, I also like the added harness!
That Veers helmet really comes in handy for Imperials with caps, if that is indeed the one you used.
Ive been meaning to do some as well but now that Hasbro's upgraded the Tech I don't have to. ;D

forgot to ask,  do you have a group shot of the guys without the headgear?  I can tell they have different head sculpts or are painted differently but would like a closer look.

Psyclone,

First off I rarely venture outside of my comfort zone over at the Diorama section but I have wondered outside of my comfort zone to see your work.

What a treat it is to see your dramatic customs, they stand head and shoulders with some of the best people on the net, it's so inspiring to see such detailed and skillful work.

A word of warning, the guys on this site are totally awesome, they are going to lap up what ever you do (as will I), since joining this little community I have become totally hooked.

A warm welcome.

Jules

Hey, Psyclone!  Welcome to the 'Yards!  I love these guys!  The first time I saw them, I thought of the Imperial troops listed in WEG's Imperial Sourcebook for the SWRPG.

Inspired by the games Republic Commando and Ghost Recon I wanted to design a squad of commandos that would be a crossover from the Old Republic to the Empire. So, these Imperial Commandos were born.

These guys were cobbled together in a couple of days. The hardest part was trying to stop myself from overdoing it. I'm always tempted to add more or redesign the figure the longer I look at it. I'm sure they'll change soon. Anyway, here is what they look like now.









Here are some shots of them individually for more detail. . .

Imperial Commando Commander -

Helmet - AT-AT Driver, Clone Commander visor, Death Star Gunner antenna.
Torso - 30th Anniversary Stormtrooper
Legs - #41 Clone Trooper
Backpack - Scorch, misc accessories, Mark IV sentry patrol droid from POTF2 Cantina diorama.
Hip holster and pistol - Clone Commander
Hip pouch - Scout Trooper
Rifle - Marauder Inc's E-11
Rank Badge - Commander Cody
Belt gizmo - Clone Pilot




Imperial Commando Technician -


Helmet - AT-AT Driver, Death Star Gunner antenna, Jango Fett range finder
Torso - 30th Anniversary Stormtrooper
Legs - #41 Clone Trooper
Backpack - Sandtrooper (modified)
Rifle - Marauder Inc's E-11
Wrist Computer - Some GI Joe
Leg Gadget - I forget




Imperial Commando Sniper -


Helmet - AT-AT Driver, Death Star Gunner antenna
Torso - 30th Anniversary Stormtrooper
Legs - #41 Clone Trooper
Backpack - Snowtrooper
Ammo pouch - Sandtrooper
Hip holster and pistol - Scout Trooper ankle holster and blaster
Thermal Detonators - Clone Trooper belts
Rifle - IG-88 with some Joe scope.




Imperial Commando Grenadier -


Helmet - AT-AT Driver, Death Star Gunner antenna
Torso - 30th Anniversary Stormtrooper
Legs - #41 Clone Trooper
Backpack - Scorch
Rifle - POTF2 Stormtrooper blaster with Scorch's anti-armor attachment added.
Ammo - Scorch

Now those are some cool custom clones! Tamer's gonna love the atat driver helmets you used. He has this thing for atat walkers and drivers, you see.
Very nicely done.

See, me and Psyclone are on the same wavelength - the Commandos going from the huge Katarn armor down to more standard trooper armor.  That ATAT driver helmet does look sharp, there!  Love the fact we both went for a rangefinder on one and a macrovisor on another.  Very nice looking squad.

man I can't pic a single thing on these that I like.... cuz I love all of it.  I never liked how they said that when the empire formed the troops just got brand new armor.  An army can never be completely resupplied with new uniforms everywhere over night.  There will be shipments missed, parts left out and most units are going to have to wind up cobbling together parts of their old uniform with their new one so that they are still protected in battle!  I picture these guys being stationed out on the outer rim somewhere and doing just that, having to invent a half imperial half republic set of armor.... 

LOOKS AWESOME.


on a side note, and I don't know that this realy matters, but I think everyone here tries to keep a single thread going with all their customs instead of posting seperate threads for each one.  I know it gets kind of confusing to have to read through a 66page thread (clint... ;) ) but it does cut down on some of the clutter in the board.  If it doesn't matter to anyone else though it realy doesn't matter to me.  On ST6 we make seperate threads for each figure custom as well, of course there isn't as many people on there and each of us have our own board section to post our "best of" stuff to showcase them.
