Great job on these figures! I agree with you regarding the Echo base hat. Yours looks stellar, by the way. I like how both Antilles and Zalor turned out. Excellent use of parts, especially the Golden Compass head.

[FialaFernbrugg]

Both figures are phenomenal.
The best Captain Antilles figure I've seen so far.
Excellent work.

Repainted TVC Rebel Fleet Trooper cap. Belt made from harness leg hoop off SL Bossk. Lower legs from Comic 2-Pack Fixer Loneozner, with feet from the Russian Soldier.

These are great! Good job with the scuplting/modifications. The use of the Indie Russian soldier for the background rebel is great. I might have to borrow that!

[Tamer]

Very nice. Talk about some extensive recipes. Off to share.

[I-am-Boba-Fett]

Always great to see Original Trilogy custom figures. Nice work on your latest two!

[Sjefke]

Those are outstanding!
I love customs of the obscure OTC characters.
You and Stan do such nails very work.

BTW
Those Indiana Jones Russian soldiers and Ugha figures are available from an Asian seller cheap.  I picked up about ten of each for future projects.

Thanks Sjefke for the link. They're very useful figures. I got a pack of 10 soldiers from a shop near me that sells loose figures.

[StarAlien70]

Thanks again everyone. Here's some Han Solo customs that came about when I was working on the Yavin Rebel figures. 

Han Solo (Endor Strike Team): Modified torso and uppermost leg joints from TBS Cassian Andor. Thighs cut and drilled from SW Saga 02/05 Kit Fisto. Lower legs modified from TBS Luke (Yavin); feet cut off, fitted with TVC Rebel Trooper's. Arms modified from TLC Agen Kolar with hands from TBS Luke (ROTJ). Head repainted and drilled from SW Saga 04/19 Han (Endor Strike). Duster, waistcoat/vest and holster from TVC or VTSC Han (Trench Coat).



Han Solo (Yavin Ceremony): Mainly uses TAC Han (Smuggler/Gunner) with modified collar. Arms slightly modified from TVC or VTSC Han (Trench Coat) with hands from The Twelfth Doctor (Wave 3). Head is repainted and drilled from Han & Leia 2-pack (TFA packaging).

Han Solo (Cloud City Prisoner/Torture): Arms, repainted head and modified lower torso from TAC Han (Torture Rack). Upper torso modified from TBS Luke (Yavin). Jacket from Force Link Han & Boba Fett 2-Pack (This is quite a close colour match to the arms - arms have a slightly more purple hue). Upper legs modified from TSC Han (Carbonite) with lower legs from TVC or VTSC Han (Trench Coat). Repainted stripes on trousers.

Han Solo (Jabba's Palace/Skiff): Mainly uses modified TSC Han (Carbonite) with lower legs and slightly modified arms from TVC or VTSC Han (Trench Coat). Repainted stripes on trousers.

Wow, those are awesome. Let me take some of this to the front pages.

[UKHistory]

These Han Solo's are wonderful!  Your work really shows a keen eye to matching parts; it also demonstrates your painting skills.

And it also shows how great a job Hasbro did with their sculpts.  The Return of the Jedi Harrison Ford sculpt really captures  how Ford aged.  Maybe even more impressively is the fact that the "Blue eyed" Solo from the princess leia two pack is even more incredible. 

Paint the eyes and hair and it is an awesome sculpt of Han Solo.  A really good version. 

[Dag Marus]

Holy hell.  I totally want one of those ROTJ Han figures.  That is absolutely PERFECT.

[StarAlien70]

Thanks everyone for your comments and thanks Tamer for all the shares.

Totally agree about the sculpts - I feel sorry for the sculptors who must feel like crying when they see all their hard work ruined by bad paint apps.
For example on the Han from the 2-pack, the eyes were painted on his cheeks.
