Very nice! It reminds me of a type of knight.

Thanks guys! I'm having fun with these KOTOR builds, might take me a while but I think I'm going to try my hand at the whole cast.

That's an incredible custom! The sculpting is really well done, the color scheme works well. Great job, keep up the brilliant work.

Here's a quick one I did. I've seen a lot of updates on the bad 80s hair Mara Jade, and found this cast head on ebay that looked pretty good to me. Not sure what the source is, but the ears were pointy before I shaved them down.

The cape is made from an Anakin cloak that I trimmed down, wrapped around the figure and melted together in front around the neck. I wasn't sure how it would work out but I'm pretty happy with it overall. I would have preferred a smaller hilt, but This was the only violet saber I had available.

Excellent work! Your scratch-building is topnotch! I've seen a few KOTOR Astromechs and that one is pretty spot on!

Thank you! I'm particularly proud of that one. I was pretty surprised to find out they never made a KOTOR style astromech with how many dozens of variations they did with the more recent models.

Here's another KOTOR2 I've finished: Visas Marr. Pretty straightforward build on this one: entirely reworked from the Padme Peasant Disguise VC figure with a slice cut out of the skirt, and some greenstuff sculpting for the veil and the belt. The saber is made from an unlit hilt accessory drilled out to accept a filed down missile from the new TFA Unkar's Thug pack. Pretty pleased with her overall, just need to finish working out a Nihilus to pair her with.

Nice job on Visas Marr - the green stuff work is really excellent. Mara Jade looks good as well.

Been kind of held up by the big move lately, but one I finished just before I left in the KOTOR line: Bao Dur. First time using a GI Joe Base, I thought it worked well because he always struck me as a taller character. Tunnel Rat body and legs, Darth Maul head (I had a hell of a time finding a ball-joint Maul head and ended up drilling out a swivel head instead, it actually worked out better than expected). The energy arm was made from a bunch of clippings of an emperor lightning-effect hand glued directly into a random cup-shaped piece of plastic that I drilled out into a proper joint. Genuinely had a hard time with adhesive because I was mixing light-colored soft rubber with hard plastic darker pieces for dynamic effect, but I like how it turned out in the end.

He sure looks good on the front page.
