Chakaman's customs, mods and repaints

[Chakaman]

Funny how much Crumb adds to the place, isn't it?

Yeah, he really does. I am pretty happy to have him.

Question Chris. Not really relating to anything about those guys in particular, but on the gloves of the guy on the right, where'd you get or how'd you fashion the little device on there? Looks very similar to what needs to be on my Snowtrooper Commander.

looks like the communicator that comes with Hasbro Hoth Luke and Han?

Yup. That's it. Good eye Nate. The Hasbro stuff is great for random greeblies.

Man, I need to do a Snowtrooper Commander soon.

I really didnt want to spend $200 for the new phase 2 Rex. I am pretty happy with the phase 1 and I am not a "clone junkie". I do like the phase 2 bucket though. I decided to pick up a bucket from TA to see how it would look on the phase 1 Rex. I know its not totally accurate, but for what I spent on the upgrade I am pleased. I will probably add a ammo pouch to the pauldron.





...and Mr. Crumb in his new home.

Hey easy with the clone junkie statement pal. Haha

Nice dude. I managed to get Crumb as well from TA yesterday to go with my Slave Leia.

Ha! What I meant was that I don't get caught up in the details or making them 100% accurate etc. I like the looks of them, I have a whole shelf of them.

Yeah, Crumb adds a lot to the display. I am glad to finally have him.

Chaka, that Klaatu and Nikto look awesome with Jabba. Really amazing pieces there. Nice work.

Thanks man. I need to do some work on Nikto, but I want to finish some other stuff first. I also need to add wrist armor to Klaatu.

Really a lot of fine work here! I love your klaatu!! Hope to see picture of him finished soon!

Wooof is stellar. I love the finer attention to detail you put into your stuff.

Klatuu is off the charts man. I dont think he could get much better than that from any company.

 

[Hewer]

Always love going through your posts as it is awesome and that I'm not the only one with figures half complete

I have been wanting to add Salacious Crumb to my display for quite sometime. He, along with R2, will really add to my Jabba setup.

I am going to use these Bossk heads to upgrade my Saurins Garon Nas Tal and Hrchek Kal Fas...

Oh bummer - they parted another Bossk and I missed the jumpsuit again!

Those heads are going to be so great for those two Saurins. Are those old heads the GG statue heads?

Thanks man. He is one of my favorites. I loved the vintage figure as a kid.

Thanks man. I appreciate it my friend.

Always love going through your posts as it is awesome and that I'm not the only one with figures half complete ��

Cheers mate. Yes, sourcing parts/outfits for kitbashing has been proving more and more difficult. Add less free time, equals 1/2 finished figures.

Thanks man.

I don't think TA parted out another Bossk, they just had a headsculpt and hands/feet available. After I saw Steven's Saurins, I knew I needed to upgrade mine. Yes, the ones I have now are repainted GG busts. I will find other uses for them.

 

[Chakaman]

Starting to paint up my Saurins.....



I am planning on repainting the eyes.

 

[Kodiak3d]

Good start so far

 

[Chakaman]

Good start so far

Thanks. Little sloppy tonight, kinda tired.

I need to buy some gloss and some dullcoat tomorrow. Then I will add some more detail.

Here is what the profile will look like, collar up on his vest...

always amazes me...

always amazes me...

Thanks man.

I am really enjoying going back and upgrading many of my customs. I have learned quite a bit and have gotten a lot of cool ideas from some of you the past year or so.

Now, I just need to finish some of them. Stay on target, stay on target......

 

[Spudtrooper]

....Almost there......almost theeerrrreeee.....
