Chakaman's customs, mods and repaints

[Chakaman]

I did some touchup work on Kithaba's face.....

I also hacked up Pons Limbic's boots a bit and gave it a brown base coat. I may darken them up a bit. They will look better when weathered. I also painted his pants.....

As always great work.

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks man!


I darkened the boots, also weathered them up. I think I may have gone a bit far, oh well.

I also did the belt. Its a Hasbro Imperial officer belt repainted.

I lighted up his furry cufflinks too.

Next up, the shirt...

I had started on Hrchek Kal Fas from the Cantina a while back. I added some more details on the face and painted up the flightsuit.

Looking excellent! What do you paint the flight suit with to stop the paint from cracking/flaking off?

Thanks. I used water based acrylics. I also water them down a bit and do several coats. It takes a while and is a major pain, but it works.

Here are some more pics. I found some more reference pictures. I decided to add light green to the front of his shirt and I added a stripe down both sleeves..

That is awesome!!!

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I know the Hasbro figure has bare, Bossk like feet and hands. The ref pictures I have seen show him having boots and gloved hands. I think I am going with boots and gloves.

Small update on Hrchek Kal Fas....

Im not sure I like the grey gloves, but they appear to be grey in the pictures. I need to add a pocket and cylinder to the vest.

Hi Chaka, Looking good

Have you considered a Deep Bottle Green( almost black) or a tan colour for the gloves ?

Either would probably work better.

 

[LOPIE]

Looks great.

I am for sure going to try some different colors. I think a tan would look cool. Thanks for input mate.

Looks great.

Cheers dude!
