Looks good, off to share.

Made the Solo twins, first Jacen, or Darth Caedus, gave him both a red, and green saber for the option. He's made from a Death Star Trooper, simple right? He's black to begin with, so no wear, had to slightly mod the belt to get the current one over it, made the cape, cut the chest armor out of styrene, and swapped the head with a cast of the Hasbro Jacen Solo. I love the way he turned out, wish Hasbro would have made this version, maybe with a sith eyes head swap?

He's for sale here if anyone is interested: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Custom-Star-Wars-Jacen-Solo-Darth-Caedus-3-75in-figure-jedi-sith-mandalorian-EU-/351899564526?hash=item51eed939ee:g:cqwAAOSw5cNYIN3M

The other half of the Solo twins, "Sword of the Jedi" Jaina Solo. This is the DarthArmoressCustoms 2.0 version, I think the outfit isn't as accurate, but the base figure is black, so no wear. She's a slightly modified Marvel Universe Black Widow, with a repainted MU Psylocke head.

She's listed here if anyone is interested: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Custom-Star-Wars-New-Jedi-Order-Jaina-Solo-3-75in-figure-sith-mandalorian-EU-/351899541111?hash=item51eed8de77:g:vWcAAOSwMVdYINpP

I like them, especially Jacen. Off to share along with your auctions.

Thanks Tamer, I especially like Jacen as well, he looks spot on to the way the jackwagon looked at Mara Jade's funeral (for those who don't know, he killed his aunt Mara, and then showed up to the funeral).

Finished another one already, from the cinematic trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic, Jedi Battlmaster Kao Cen Darach. Turned out pretty sweet, bought a bunch of the base figure for this one so I can make Ven Zallow, and Sith Warrior figures. It's a G.I. Joe figure with the Accelerator Suit, and this one's mostly a repaint, a little black wash too, for it looked pretty flat on it's own, with a Darth Maul head, and a slightly modified robe. The double sided blue saber has magnets in it allowing the blades to come off, it's cool, but it's more for practical reasons considering double sided sabers brake easier in shipping because they're typically glued together.

Wow back with another great one already. Time to go share again.

Just what I remember from those old video game trailers. Man I can remember those blowing my mind at the time. I can remember this guy and Shan in a ship battle where he holds em off while they get out of there.

Just happened to see this latest one on the front page and just had to swing by and comment on a very nice job here. That particular G.I. Joe figure is a great base for those SW:TOR Jedi and Sith, and if you mix it up with the GI Joe RoC Duke and Heavy Duty in Reactive Impact Armour figures, you're all set for creating quite a collection of Jedi and Sith.

Great custom of an awesome character! Thanks for sharing!

Turned out great! I really do like that accelerator suit for battle armor.

I know, those vids were crazy, I would have watched a feature length film like those.

Thanks Mr. Black I've been looking at those other armor sets you mentioned since the accelerator suit a is decent match I'd prefer something closer, but certain size differences are in my way, so I'll be experimenting. Speaking of experimenting, I also have a pretty cool Reactive Impact Armor/Marvel Universe mix in the works. Here's a quick pic, talk a bit more about it later, but can anybody guess what I'm making?.

Thanks Clone Crazy, happy to share here at the yards.

Thanks Starchaser, I do too, that's why I bought 18, or so, just a few. On ebay I think there are some left pretty cheap, especially if you buy a few.

Other than a little snipet of an update in response to Mr. Black's comment, here are to recent finishes. First up Lord Skere Kaan, former Jedi Master, leader of the Brotherhood of Darkness, betrayed by Darth Bane into unleashing the thought bomb, killing off the brotherhood so Bane could set forth the Rule of Two. Personally I hate the Rule of Two, I believe more in the the Revan, Malak approach, but I can see why Bane would see the need for it with the crap the Brotherhood was doing. He's a comic Luke, mixed with Vader, a Talon Karrde head, and custom soft goods.
