Commander Wolffe is a wonderful custom figure. Thank you for the tutorial with all the materials you've used for the figure. I wish it would be easier to get the Bandai stuff here in europe.

The AT-AT head is going to be an impressive giant. I'm looking forward to see it finished.

Excellent work!

Hi All,

I woke up this morning and opened my emails to find Jeremy Bulloch had sent me an email. with a pic of the figure on display It made my day and what an awesome guy.

I have left out his email for privacy.

Hi Ron

Sorry for the delay in emailing you, but it has been mad since we got back from Australia, we have also been to the USA since.  As you can see the figure made it back to the UK in one piece and is now sitting happily in my office.  Many, many thanks - it was a lovely gift.

All the best

Jeremy

Hi All,

Started a quick commission piece for a client and he wants Darth Nihilus so here are some WIP pics so far.

The body is a Hasbro Kylo Ren and the head is a Hasbro Finn, the maks is made from plastic card, putty, wire and small 1/72 scale parts.

The robes and cape are done from material I picked up from the local craft store and I used a pair of scissors and sand paper to give it a good wear and tear fill to it.

Thanks Shawn, the build so far has been good except the mask which I have played around with a few times already.

I immediately thought of the great mask work on the Phantom of the Opera Doll you helped me out with for my daughter so many years ago. I can't wait to see wait you come up with for the final version of Nihilus too.

Hi All,

Darth Nilihus is done.

Recipe

Nihilus - is a Hasbro Kylo Ren body and Finn head and I used plastic card and putty to make the mask and I then used 1/72 scale pieces and wire to do the sliver parts.

I used light black material for the robes and cape and teh light saber is a very simple modification of Farm boy Luke's saber.

Base - is made up using Bandai 1:12 bases and then balsa wood was used for the sides. The ground work was done by mixing spakfilla and sand together and the rock were doen using foam and then the spakfilla/sand mix was added over that.

The green wisps were done by mixing light green with Woodland Scenics Realistic Water and then applying it the base with a brush.
