Looks great! Where did you get the walls/floor from?

Thanks. It's part of my diorama (other thread on this forum)
 
Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS298 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Leia Organa Collectible Figure

Finally get my Leia in a couple of weeks, this is slow to reach other parts of Asia.

Really don't care enough to replace the dress, I'm not that fussy.

Yeah, as Jazz says, the dress can be worked to look okay/decent. It kinda bugs me, but not enough to spend $$$ to fix it.

I think the HT Luke poncho bugged me more - so I swapped it with a modded Hasbro one and I like it. Problem solved, cost = $0:yess:

Leia looks right at home between the boys and their walking carpet.

Leia's dress looks good there. I don't really see a problem with the drapery or the fit.

Thanks but that took a lot of work. I removed wires from hood. Put them in the bottom hems of the dress. Removed underskirt. Cut all the inside seams as close as I dared. Lots of water treatment and futzing. Then double sided tape. Added beauty marks and other minor details to face.

Looks awesome Jazz. Oh, to have the ability to paint.

Do you just collect SW 1/6, or do you have other amazing repaints and dios in the mancave?

I have a few custom pieces. I tinker with all of them. Here is some custom painted 1/5 pieces

What R2 and C3PO is that? (company)

Those are fully customized versions of the Tamashii C3PO and the sideshow R2
 
Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS298 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Leia Organa Collectible Figure

I cannot justify a dress that's twice the price of the figure, especially after I worked on the Hot Toys dress. It's not THAT complicated

Jazz, what did you do to the Leia dress if you don't mind saying. I'm assuming your not open to commissions.
 
Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS298 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Leia Organa Collectible Figure

Looks like he pressed or ironed some folds. It's about all you can do with it.

He did a nice futz job with what HT gave us ... but that's not the dress Leia wore in the movie.

I found this on the previous page...

@Jazz - Taking the goofy underskirt out makes a big difference. How did you tighten those pleats?
