Thanks Brinn.

I scrapped the first "neck-bit" area. I used some vinyl, painted it greenish-grey and wrapped it around the neck. I need to figure the collar out.

I added a belt and padded his waist/hips area so he would fill out the suit a bit. Added some zippered pockets.

Still toying around with this guy. In most of the ref pictures, this guy has white gloves on. Should I give him gloves or Hammerhead hands???

You're knocking these out at a pretty good clip man. Looking forward to once you get cracking on Wuher.

Thanks Duane, Barry.

Thanks man. They arent finished, but I am off to a good start on them.


I have pretty much got the outfit for Wuher sorted out, painting the head is going to be the problem. As Lopie mentioned in his thread, I too hate painting human heads. It should be a challenge, but a fun one.

Now if that isn't a dodgy little crowd of fellows,I don't now what is.
Great job as usual Chris! It's always great seeing your take such characters & bringing them alive

Thanks guys! Cheers!!

I put a coat of gloss on the jacket to give it that "leathery look". I did the belt, but may tweak it. Im still deciding on what to use for the knee pads. I also need to finish up the neck and paint it.

Hey mate, sorry to bring up an old custom, but I just bought one of Enauds beautiful sculpts & was wondering if you could help me with the recipe for the outfit?

Hey no problem at all. Most of the outfit was just kitbashed together and painted up. The main piece is the jacket. The jacket is a Dragon Russian winter jacket turned around backwards and modded. I added the shoulder padding and collar was modded to fit the neck I sculpted onto the body. The belt was custom made and the boxes are from a Hasbro Imperial commander belt.

Here are some pics that may help....

any other questions, let me know. Hope this helps.
