Replace the base with a Death Star floor, it'll be straight out of Force Unleashed game, it is an awesome dio mate.

Thanks heaps mate and I never played Force Unleashed and the DS base sounds great.

Vader looks amazing! does the figure still retain all of its articulation? An would you mind telling how you got the 7 inch scale neca parts to work with the 6 inch hasbro figure?

Thanks mate and there won't be any articulation as this will be a statue diorama. The NECA parts are perfect for Vader as he is taller then 6" and their scale is perfect for him. To make them fit with the figure I just had to trim down the NECA parts a little.

Hi All,

Have puttied up the joints where it was needed and I used putty to do the damaged clothing. I have started painting him and will have more pics tomorrow.

Ron this is really looking good, well gruesome, which is your intent. I would like to see who he was battling to get this banged up!

Off to share the update.

Hi All,

Vader is now completed.

Recipe

Vader - is a KO version and is perfect to do a Battle Damaged Vader as they are cheap. I glued the joints and then used putty to cover them and also used putty to make the damaged skin area's and the ripped suit.

The cyborg parts are from a 7" NECA Terminator figure and I just took the parts I wanted and trimmed the ends so they would fit perfectly with the Vader figure.

The loose wires are some old LED lights that don't work anymore and I cut off what I needed. The cape is some black fabric I picked up form the local craft store and I added thin wire to give it a flowing motion.

Base - is a mould from a Woodland Scenics rubber mould that you make yourself which I got from a mate and the grass tufts are form the local gaming shop.

Both the figure and the base were painted and weathered using Vallejo paints and pastel chalks.
