I think you pulled it off great. I could so see a Trandoshan doing something like that.

[Starchaser]

Cool trandoshan! Potf2 aien figures are actually pretty good even by today's standard. The Zuckuss i think looks better than the legacy one. Yeah the cybernetics on his eye is well done.

Thanks, JDeck. I agree that the alien sculpts hold up pretty well on many of the POTF2 figures. I haven't looked at Zuckuss in a while, but wouldn't be at all surprised (newer isn't always better).

Thanks. I totally thought it would work (if the Wookiee bounty hunter Snoova has implants, why wouldn't a Trandoshan?).

[Tamer]

Good point about Snoova. I really like the Trandoshan Alien character. They make great everything.

Have you ever seen a Trandoshan Mando? I know I have a few Jedi and Sith Customs.

[Starchaser]

No, I've not seen a Trandoshan Mando - but that could totally work. Now I guess I have to try and figure out how to build an appropriate helmet.

[Tamer]

LOL. Sorry, was just kind of thinking out loud.

[Starchaser]

  No, but really, I kind of think it would be cool and have some ideas about the base parts for the design, my only question really is the helmet.

[Tamer]

Yeah, you would have to have the Mando helmet to fit him I would think.

[Starchaser]

Got an idea today. Let's see if I can assemble all the appropriate parts, shall we?

cool deal. Man, I can't wait to see what you pull off for this one.

Don't you have a 3D Printer? Man, you could design and print the first Trandoshan Mando helmet!

[Starchaser]

My son has one, but I haven't touched it yet. I'm overloaded enough that finished all the figure projects takes up what spare time I have and I haven't yet looked into the programs for designing .stl files. Maybe I'll get around to it in the winter, but we'll see.

I wanted to dive deep into 3D printing too, maybe design something original. The possibilities are unlimited.

Raam and Baash:(characters from the LEGO Freemaker Adventures).
Most often seen publicly working as bounty hunters for Garballa the Hutt, they often seem quite inept and easily distracted. They are under contract to Lady Shadowmark, who “releases” them to Garballa at Jabba’s request (its his way of sabotaging Garballa’s attempts to become independent). In a yet another layer of deception, Raam and Baash are actually cousins Samsir and Mekmil Taruun, intelligence operatives for the Rebel Alliance. The cousins suspect that Lady Shadowmark knows, but are playing a “don’t ask, don’t tell” game.



Recipes:

Raam:
Head and hands = ROTS Saesee Tiin
Torso = Boss Fight Blasted Lands Orc
Arms and legs = Indiana Jones Deluxe German Soldier
Belt = Jango Fett (TAC)

Baash: (I've shown him before)
Head and hands = ROTS Saesee Tiin
Body = VC Verdain

Tog Horog:
Much has been made of the near extinction of the Dashade species and there is an aura of mystery around them. Capitalizing on this mystique and their natural ability to dissipate heat so as to be very difficult to detect with scanners, they are in high demand as assassins. Tog’s presence in Lady Shadowmark’s council chambers tends to keep her visitors in line.





The source material on Dashade is a bit confused. They are described as "hulking" and shown with regular hands or large hands with three talons (one of which is opposable). But the original Dashade is Ket Maliss from the Holiday special and he is human sized and has two large clawed hands. So... I did one with "normal" hands and one with claws - though I might modify them as the Ket Maliss costume had smooth pinchers.

Recipe:
Head = customs cast from someone - I think Starwars Geek.
Head wrap = Force link Jyn Erso
Upper torso and arms = VC Klaatu
Lower torso and legs = Fortnite Battle Hound
Claws = Boss Fight mini-pack (crustacean)

Nar Bevan:
Advozse, the senator appointed to represent Riflor loyalists when Silvu Donte tried to secede from the Republic. He ran afoul of the newly formed Empire, however, as an outspoken advocate of representation. His life was saved through the intervention of Lady Shadowmark and a distraction caused by his friend the Advozse Jedi Knight, Salu Nurn who lost his life battling the Inquistor and troops sent to “detain” Nar. Or did Salu and Nar change places, banking on the inability of many humans to notice the difference between Advozsec so that Salu could escape because Nar was fighting a terminal disease that no doctor in the Republic could find a treatment for? Now uses his insight and diplomatic skill as Lady Shadowmark’s Majordomo.



Recipe (pretty simple):
Head = Bom Vimdin
Body = Greef Karga
