Glantern Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Thanks for the compliments everybody! Oh, C3PO is cool as well! You added some plastic for his upper legs, right? C3PO has the upper thigh armor from the IM movie MK I. You can't really tell from the picture, but he also has DCD Flash's treaded feet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check back tomorrow for the next set. Comments are appreciated. Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Could we get a picture of Han's head or Luke's head on the Stormtrooper's body?? That'd be pretty damn funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I really like Han's facial expression. Keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glantern Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 Thanks again for the compliments guys! Glad you all liked Han and the Trooper Well, let's move straight into the 'mates themselves! STAR WARS Week Day 3! PRINCESS LEIA: There is almost no way to make that hair not look silly. DARTH VADER: I swear I had like 20 red light sabers laying around before I started on these, but when it came time to take pictures of ol Vader here, not a single saber was to be found. figures and before we end this installment I will fulfill TTF's request for a picture. Here ya go And that ends today's installment. Check back tomorrow for the next pair. Thanks for looking! Comments are greatly appreciated.

luke314pi Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 The new ones look really good. I think Vader could use some more detail on his mask. It looks a little flat right now. Maybe something like the Vader mimobot has. The chest looks nice though. The Han and Luke Stormtrooper pic is pure awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe something like the Vader mimobot has. The chest looks nice though. The Han and Luke Stormtrooper pic is pure awesome. Vader actually does have a good deal of detail on the mask, I just couldn't get any particularly good shots of it, so yes, it looks flat in the picture. I may still change the face anyway.

Twisted Two-Face Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Very, very nice!! It's a shame about Vader's lightsaber; that kind of stuff seems to happen to me a lot too... And i thank you for the Luketrooper and Hantrooper pic!! Luke is right; it's pure gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 Thanks for the complimaents guys! TTF: Glad I could help First things first. I managed to get a *slightly* better shot of Darth Vader's head, showing a little more detail And on to STAR WARS Week Day 4! R2D2: This one stretches the word "custom" a little bit, but I did do a little work, changing the original figure's legs, and doing some slight repainting(hasbro paint ops suck!) CHEWBACCA: Well, gotta say, this is my least favorite of the set. Don't like how the head turned out. That's it for this installment. Check back tomorrow for the variant figure of the wave, as well as some various group shots of the mates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinimateEspo25 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 actually, that chewie is pretty awesome, i love the arms/hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 (edited) thanks for the comments! Ok, just going straight into STAR WARS Week day 5! Today, it's the variant: HAN SOLO IN CARBONITE: I know, being from ROTJ her doesn't reall fit the theme of the series which so far has been fairly ANH. But I think this idea just looks so cool mateized. And now, some shots of the 'mates together: (Some use Galactic Heroes Mllenium Falcon, just in case anyone's wondering) And that concludes STAR WARS Week! Thanks for looking! comments are appreciated. Edited July 10, 2009 by Glantern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I love the group shots! Also, I think Chewie looks fantastic, especially when you can see him from different angles in these other photos. What a cool set of customs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glantern Posted August 1, 2009 Author Share Posted August 1, 2009 well, I'm back from a little bit of a break, and I have quite a bit of stuff I can't wait to show off. I've gotten used to doing my stuff a set at a time, so that's a theme I want to keep. I've got an idea that I've been working on for another week of customs which I plan to debute starting Monday of next week, but I figured I would post a WIP pic for you guys to look at. Feel free to guess if you think you know what I'm working on, but just to have some more fun, I'd be quite interested in seeing if you guys can guess what specific characters I'm making. Look for more on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
