Chakaman's customs, mods and repaints

[Chakaman]

After seeing some of the other Biker Scouts that you guys were doing in the other threads, I decided to revisit mine. I did these over a year ago, so I wanted to do a few upgrades...

Hey Me too!!! Looks great now, what you gonna upgrade? gonna have to keep tabs on you lol see what i need to do to mine, it's my first biker scout so might be ask for some tips , just won the scout on the bay and here what i got so far shoulders are from Dorgmal ( thanks again btw )

 

[big guy]

My goal is something like that........one day. So what body are you using for the Biker Scout? I`m not to sure what`s best and looking at some on that bid site have scary prices for a nude 1/6th figure lol

that biker scout rocks chakaman.............

i had debated keeping the original boots for mine as well but really liked the DiD boots repainted. although i kept them in case one day i want to switch them out....

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks guys. Actually, the pics above are after I redid some things. I guess I should have mentioned that.

@BigGuy..I used a Dragon body, nothing really special to be honest. I didnt want to pay big $$$ for a TT.

Shoulder bells are SSC Stormtrooper ones sanded down. I made his "diaper" myself. I also found some gloves laying about that I painted black. I am not sure where I got them, sorry.

The sides pouches were cut off the Koto statue. The pants were from Ignite toys, the Viking. I liked them because they were a bit baggy. They look really good after they were painted.

Right now I have Hasbro boots on him. These boots are from the scout that comes with the speeder. The boots that come with the Scout that is boxed are WAYYYYY to big. I do have a set of Dragon boots painted that I am using on my second scout.

I think thats it....

 

[big guy]

Chakaman, ahhh great as I`m thinking of a DML figure for budget reasons too lol

Look forward to seeing this completed and your second lol

[big guy]

Hell Yea Nature has provided the battleground, you provide the troops and propaganda corps
BTW Dengar is looking fantastic.

 

[Chakaman]

Working on Dengar today. Coming along. Next up is to thicken up the neck bandages and add the metal pins.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Oww top stuff man, and great paint job on the head....

 

[Gregorbian]

Wow, great work on Dengar so far! Are you combining Sideshow armor with Hasbro's armor? It looks seamless! I can't wait to see the finished product!

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks guys!!

Yes, its a combination of Hasbro and Sideshow Stormtrooper armor.

Hasbro chestpiece, thigh armor, shoulder bells and feet.

Sideshow Stormtrooper waist armor, cod piece, wrist armor and Sandtrooper lower leg armor.

Sideshow Luke Bespin holster, handmade belt and Hasbro Snowtrooper pouch repainted. Cannot remember where I got the gloves. I had to mod the wrist armor to get the gloves to fit over them.

Here are a couple shots of the head. I think I got the bandages the way I like them, just now have to paint them up a bit...

 

[Chakaman]

I gave Dengars bandages and body suit a few washes of dirty water, He just looked too clean before...

Here are a couple shots of him on my display shelf...

 

[Artoo]

Fantastic work!

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks!

Well I got my Gammorean Guards yesterday. I havnt had a chance to mess with them or anything, but I think I am going to have a go at repainting him. I want to lighten him up a bit. Here are a few pics of him straight out of the box..
