Here's a couple of customs that I finally had a bit of time to put together. Nothing too complicated:

Desta Bucerind, co-owner of Celestial Stars and Gems. She is slowly taking over the business from her father, a moderately well known jewel cutter.



The figure is a simple:
     Body = Clone Wars Luminara Unduli (with paint touch ups on hands and neck)
     Head = Luna Lovegood (Harry Potter)

Desta travels widely, carries valuable merchandise, and has serious (and sometimes unscrupulous) competition. She needs security and her father has hired former Iktotchi commando Wenway Stam as a bodyguard for his daughter.



Head = Saga Legends Saesee Tiin
Body = GI Joe 25th Anniversary Zartan
Blaster = Marauder Gunrunners Sci-Fi rifle
     (I still have a few paint apps for this figure)

One other figure, inspired by the Yakfinities poll for Order 66 survivors:
Karaa’lini Tamdarru, recently advanced from Padawan to Knight, was studying to be a Jedi librarian and had been sent By Jocasta Nu to a remote archaeological site to record the findings for the Jedi Temple library when the Clone Wars broke out. Far away on the Outer Rim, she was cut off from the Republic by Separatist forces, but with the help of the archaeological team (who had no use for senseless violence) she went underground. She stayed in the Outer Rim acting as a free-lance scout, guide and explorer. She kept her lightsaber, but usually had it hidden.



Head = McQuarrie Starkiller
Body = GI Joe Agent Helix
Vest = Yavin Ceremony Luke (30th Anniversary collection)

This is Loj Cenari, a Chagrian militia officer, part of the Chagrian resistance movement. He eventually joins the Alliance to Restore the Republic.





Loj's recipe:
Head = Mas Amedda (ROTS)
Torso and arms = Captain Typho (TLC)
Legs = Savage Opress
Sword = Mini-mates Battle Beast sword

Here's a stray that I had in my photobucket account. I don't have a name or species yet, but he functions as security for some outlaw mechanics and shipwrights. He's built from a Cobra trooper body and the head from the Grasia Star Trek Kreon.





It was a simple head-swap and I'll probably paint over the Cobra insignia at some point in the near future.
