Re: Agonistes' collection *2017 Update - Death Star diorama & more*
Thanks, guys. @firefighter, I always enjoy seeing WIP shots from other people, as it helps to understand how the things are built so you can learn, so I always try to take some myself as well.

And here my finished custom Nazgûl.
There's actually not that much left from the original Asmus version, only the hands, feet, vambraces and shin guards (optional as not visible), weapons, belt buckles, and "head" (to keep the hood up).
All the work I did:
Compared to original hand:
The Gandalf is still WIP (e.g., still missing hair, beard too long, not weathered, etc.)
And finally, compared to my earlier reworked version, where I only made him a new hood.

First time I have looked at all these pages and have really enjoyed looking at them all. Such a wonderful collection and a pleasure to see all the WIP photos. Great stuff.

All the work I did:
- switched the body to a knock off TT
- replaced the belts with faux leather
- modified the "head" slightly, increasing height
- resculpted the left hand to be more splayed open (right splayed hand is still in the works as well, for different posing options)
- repainted/weathered the feet, hands, & weapons
- made a completely new costume from scratch and weathered it
