Chakaman's customs, mods and repaints

[asgardianboy]

I used a TrueType knockoff slim-shoulder body I picked up off of ebay a few years ago.

OK thanks.
Sorry if I am so specific: the problem was that SSC's Tusken body was too floppy to use? Even at that fairly recent point in time, SSC could still put out garbage bodies?

My main problem with the Sideshow Tusken Raider bodies were that the arms were too short. I never had a problem with loose joints.

Made this today from spare parts lying around. I didn't realize I had this much extra ANH Luke stuff.

Looks great. Yeah, it's always great when you realize you have enough parts to make a full figure.

I'm considering putting my SSC Luke X stock head under the training helmet. I realized you can see the lower 1/4 of the face (and a bit more from the sides,) so it does make sense to put an actual Luke head of some sorts under there.

Which shirt is that?

Thanks. I used an extra Luke Hoth sculpt with HT hairpiece under the helmet. The outfit is Sideshow ANH Luke.

I also did some work on the chest box for my Sullustian pilot...

Thanks guys!

I wanted to give a shout to "Lopie"(Jason) for sending me the SSC Throne environment .

He asked me if I got the HT deluxe Palpatine. I said, no. He recently upgraded to the HT throne and asked me if I wanted the SSC version. I said, sure how much? He said, don't worry about it. He wouldn't even let me cover the shipping!

Jason I can't tell you how much I appreciate the kind gesture. Thank you so much. I owe you one dude!

 

[generalgrevious]

heck chris if i known you wanted a throne i would have sent you mine as i did get the dlx version.

 

[D.R.37]

Nice score

 

[TonTon]

Looks great. His old bones need a rest every once in a while.

A plus with the SSC throne is that its a more accurate gunmetal color and it isn't as deep as the HT throne so makes for a better backdrop for a standing palps because it doesn't take up as much display room. So as a behind-Palps background piece I almost prefer the SSC one. Obviously if he's sitting in it, the HT one is spectacular though.
