Chakaman's customs, mods and repaints

[Chakaman]

Thanks guys!

Yeah, I won this guy on Tuesday and the seller shipped it that day, fast to be sure.

It was just nice to finally have an evening to relax, drink a few beers and work on some dollies. Its nice when the wife takes the baby and goes and visits grandma!

Looks great ! I've had a trooper helmet for ages , but have been on the lookout for a jumpsuit to go with it . Anyone have any suggestions ?

I just used the Hasbro suit, I think it is just fine. You could also maybe use a SSC Praji outfit.


Mark, you need to cast some more Praji gloves mate!!

 

[thundergod]

Don't suppose anyone has either of the above ?

Cheers guys!! I decided to pose Garindan with my Sandtroopers...

That is sooooo sweet. Alway loved this guy, he looks great with the sandies. Chaka I'm just blown away with all of your customs. Awesome work my friend

 

[Chakaman]

Cheers Daz, thanks mate! I appreciate the kind words. I need to get a place where I can take better pictures. My lighting is pants at the moment.

Moving on, I was able to finish my second Death Star Trooper today. I still need to add the holster, I am waiting on it.

Here they are with Vader. I dont know why Vader's robe always turns purple in my pics. I apologize for the crap pictures.

Double sweet! Troops,especially Imperials(of all branches)look so much cooler in numbers

BTW Chris,in your recipe you stated that you removed the bulky velcro from the tunics,how did you go about fastening them back?...small button snaps?stitched them closed?

Thanks! I just used a couple tiny spots of super glue to keep them together. Stiching would work also, but I am not much of a sewer.

Thanks. No, I dont think I am. What forum is this? Got a link?

 

[AndreTK421]

Yea its www.threeaonline.com/forum The reason why I asked there was someone on there with the same avatar. Weird huh

 

[Chakaman]

yeah, that is weird. No, I am not a member there.

I am just a big fan of the "Bricktop" charactet.

 

[Chakaman]

I decided to work on something that has been sitting on my bench unfinished for a few months. Its Yotts Oren...

I am not quite finished yet, I still need to do the shoulder pads and a few other small details. I plan on trying to knock my unfinshed Jabba's skiff guards here in the next few weeks.
