I’ve also finished formulating the body for Zero. I’m having to basically make the hip articulation, which is so fun. I’m really learning a lot about figure construction from this project.

I found a better body formulation than I was originally using. I’m seeing Fett now more than ever.

Been pretty busy over the last couple months. I did manage to get some work done on a couple things, Here’s some WIP photos.

Everything looks great!

I'm just seeing these. I'm interested in x3 weathered robes, and one of the stands.

WOW!

Woo-Hoo! Just got a loose Sany for a decent price. The last one I need for the OT detachment. Now I can use the old Sideshow sandy I've had on my Dewback as a base for a custom Dengar.

Holy crap! So excited to see this completed! Is this one of his small runs, or does he make these to order?

I've considered just making these parts out of actual leather myself. The HT parts are actually very inaccurate, so making them myself would satisfy the "accuracy demon" and would make them last as long as I'll be around to appreciate it.

Wow, that is looking so good.

Looks awesome!

I’ve been working on knee articulation all day today. Not printing just playing with Meshmixer, which is a 3D model editor. Had a flurry of great articulation ideas for the knee and ankle. I’m overbuilding it so it’s not going to be fragile or delicate, and no rattling loose joints or armor...

Here’s mostly every part all test fit together. Let me know if you guys see any glaring accuracy issues. I trust your judgment. Nothing but skilled customizers in this neck of the woods. Second pic is for scale comparison.

Been busy over the last 24hrs. Made the hips and thighs. Here’s some pics of the prints. second pic is a scale reference.

Finished printing the forearms and the hand plate. I still need to print the pistons that go on the left arm. I’m using OT Stormtrooper hands since they are just plain black. The tough part about the hands is going to be the minute finger digit armor and finger tips. We’ll cross that bridge when...

No plans to make a kit. I have a ton of modifications to do as well. Theres a hand full of minor inaccuracies to address, and I basically have to make the leg articulation from the hips down to the toes. I want to make the hips, knees, ankles, and toes articulate, but if I can't make it work...

Having a head to test fit the helmet around and attach to the neck also gave me an opportunity to see if the scalding looks correct. At first the Zero parts looked slightly over-scaled, but after comparing him to another armored Hot Toys figure like my Mimban Stormtrooper, I can see that the...

I just realized that I can use the dud head that goes in the Hot Toys Fett helmet to build Zero’s head around. It works perfectly and the neck joint from the Stormtrooper body I’m using fits into it nice and snug but not overly tight, and the head fills out the interior of Zero's head quite...

Congratulations on the baby! I hear you on how challenging Fett is. Part of the reason mine is on the back burner is because of the amount of work involved. Painting the helmet alone will be a nightmare. I plan to use stencils to get the paint job perfect, which should be lots of fun in 1/6...

The best thing about the Sideshow Dewback is that the sculptors incorporated the best elements of the ANH original puppet (head, neck, shoulders, and saddle), and the CG model of the SE. But they took it a step further, and actually blended both versions in such a way that it looks like a real...
