Gurt custom Jedi/Padawan/Sith
« on: June 15, 2015, 01:23:28 PM »
Howdy,
Started customizing just over a year ago, here are some of my figures. Some non-custom figures included as part of same alien race, not trying to pretend. My painting stinks, working on that. Any feedback?

Thanks!

They look great! I for one am a fan of the Mon Calamari.

Lots of really great customs. I find the Misc. Alien Jedi 5 terrifying for some reason.

Good stuff!
I dabble in the Star Wars Universe of Toys... I rip apart little plastic people and turn them into other plastic people. Sometimes I take pictures of them and post them.

Welcome to the 'yards!
Man, you got a lot of Micronauts figures on your shelf.I loved those figures when I was a kid.
Great looking custom figures. You have some real standouts I really like especially in pictures 11,12,13 counting down from the top.

Thanks for the comments, you guys are great.
Jedi Alien 5 seems to be the figure most folk like, see attached picture for a breakdown. Red Faction Creeper figure from Gamestars is the base figure. Popped head, hands and feet. Cut pegs from arms and drill holes for Gha Nachkt hands. Cut off pegs for feet and realign for 90 degrees (so the figure can stand up, and not be on all 4s) and re-attach feet. Head is from StarWarsGeek's eCrater store. Paint, accessorize and there it is. I recycled the heads for Misc Alien Jedi 6 (Marvel Rhino bodies).
I also have included some copies of other customs I have tried to reproduce for practice.
I-Am-Boba-Fett- yes, I have been collecting Micronauts since the 1970's, I loved they were on the same scale as Star Wars figures! 1:18 for life...

Welcome to the 'yards Gurt. There are some really great customs in there. When I saw the Red Faction Creeper body and custom head I thought, "What a great concept. Nicely done. So question for you, the "bug" head on your Jedi underneath the Creeper - where did that come from? I also really liked the Rhino/Red Faction hybrid combos. Keep up the good work.
