First Real Custom - Star Wars - Jedi Sith Hunter

[Dr.FeelGood]

Hey folks,

taken me a while to get this started but here are a couple of pics of my WIP Jedi Sith Hunter.

Basic backstory, Sith Hunters "are" Jedi trained to hunt down Sith...nice and simple.

Character is based around the era prior to the prequal movies, 2500-1000 years before Episode 1


These pics are just the head repaint, the head originally belonged to the BBI body which it sits on, cant remember the character name tho.

Sorry for the MASSIVE pictures, camera is stuck in HD mode...lol

I will post more tomorrow while i work on the outfit.

Sweet, I like the concept. Looking forward to how this turns out.

 

[Dr.FeelGood]

Hey BuddyGus, thanks for the comments , i know need to do a paint-app on the neck to make it match the coloring of the face, a rather un-even tan...as if he'd been in the desert for a long while


Side note, i quickly took a pic of the "concept art" for the outfit, again its a big picture...i need to get into the scanner age!

Now i know...it looks a alot like the character from Assassins Creed, it was an un-intended likeness, but i kinda like it.

The finished item will be a mix of tan fabrics and black and brown leatherette, and i also hope to get his carry-bag and lightsaber "Holster" done in the brown leather/black leather.

looks like a good start. thats a good mix of materials and colors. I have always liked Quinlan Vos attire. Man that would be a really good custom.

Keep us updated.

 

[Dr.FeelGood]

Aiming for a more "functional combat" style robe, still having nods to all the other designs of robes in there but making it less "pajama" like.

Parts of the attire are changing as i start to fabricate them, adding bits here and there, i'll have some more pictures of it tomorrow when i have more of his outfit done (and redone the pants so they dont look like short-pants)

 

[BuddyGus]

Looks cool. I really dig the Lightsaber "holster". Keep us posted.

 

[Sniper33]

kinda looks like revans outfit a little, cant wait to see it finished

The sith shall pull my finger!!!!

 

[Dr.FeelGood]

LOL!!!


Yea i know, sadly i am limited in the hands i can use, you'd think that from 14 BBI bodies i'd have a varied number of hands...i dont

Ah well, another day to spend working on him, i'll keep you updated!

 

[Dr.FeelGood]

Well here we are, UPDATES

Got the "Tunic and Pants" done, i am aware he looks like he's 1) wearing shorts and 2) he's wearing a military style outfit...havent got his tabbard, belt, boots, gauntlets etc yet. They will come tomorrow hopefully.

Again, BIG images

Crits, as always, are more than welcome. Another update will come tomorrow, which should be the Boots, Tabbard, Gautlets, Belt and "Cowl"

The tunic looks good. It may be just me but the tonic looks a little bit but I dig the colors.

 

[Dr.FeelGood]

Yea i know, it'll slim out wonce i get the tabbard, shoulder-armor and belt on him...

 

[BuddyGus]

Looks good. Really looking forward to the end result. So you sew the clothing yourself? That seems pretty intense. I have thought of giving it a try, any advice?

Get a good seemstress to assist you on the tricky parts

My hands are so bad of late i can barely hold the figure some days, so i have a seemstress who helps me on those days when i cant even hold the figure...which lately has been every day

 

[drod26]

Any updates on the rest of the outfit?

 

[Dr.FeelGood]

Hye Drod,

Sorry for the lack of updates, had a busy few days been getting in the way of the work.


I'll have some more updates at the weekend, hopefully...

Plus some "blueprints" for the next Custom on my worklist...Darth Bane

 

[LOPIE]

Its looking good so far can't wait to see the finished product.

Here is a custom I just finished Starkiller

 

[drod26]

nice job Lopie.. I like how you did the belt. Also did you make your own lightsaber?

no worries man.. we are always busy doing other stuff... Glad to hear you are going to post updates over the weekend.

Barth Bane is going to be awesome... I just finish reading the rule of two and he kicks some serious butt...
Are you thinking about adding his orbalisk armer? thoese things are great protection by nasty to the body...

 

[Dr.FeelGood]

The Bane i work on will probebly be Pre-Armor, as frankly...i never did like the design of it (especially the helmet)

But yea, i'll be throwing up updates over the weekend, as i've pretty much bookmarked Sunday as a "custom" day ...lol...and most of tomorrow night too




Love the Starkiller, tho not one of my favorite characters, i like how you've done him
