Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[Geil]

Is that the IKEA coffee table conversion? Great job!

Yes.. in fact it's two of them NOW I got enough space to display my Star Wars stuff .... kinda

 

[Geil]

I made it in Photoshop from a whole bunch of references I found. I printed it out on my works big printer. It's about 28x22. Copy and enjoy!

Thank you so much!! Now if someone could make a nice backdrop for the weather vane I would be eternally grateful

I'm working on that, too. Trying to find the right ref. for the sky and the bottom of Bespin. Ongoing project.

Does anyone else think the neck articulation on dx07 pretty bad? Sure it swivels from left to right, but that neck area prevents the figure from being able to look down or up! Dx08 joker has similar neck but at least I can tilt it up or down! Or is there something wrong with my Luke?

I got one more so I could weather his uniform a little. He's sitting on my tower on my desk at work. Made a little Bespin window for fun. Love this figure!

A BIG THANKS for posting this and background i'm gonna have my brother try and print these out for me ...

the head tilt is limited but use the pers to look up or down is what i do...

Yeah the plunger/connector is pretty tight on these. You can pull off the head from the connector before you can pull the connector from the body. Pain in the arse.

 

[guyver1]

I found if you have the connector facing a certain way. You can get some more movement. I think the whole idea that HT came up with is a neck that looks realistic with the HS, that's why the actual neck was not made to pose well, I think they wanted to focus more on the PERS.

 

[highlander1]

just got mine!!!! I love this figure!!!

Nice set of pics ...I believe your the 1st to put the cut off hand together with hilt ...

Finished (sorta) my custom RotJ Luke tonight. My second attempt at sculpting a hair wig.

 

[OSCORP]

Everything looks great EXCEPT THE HAIR.(don't look natural) I just think there's not much wrong with the ESB look. If anything at least it looks natural, good work anyways.

 

[plasmid303]

Yeah it was my second time sculpting anything ever, and. I agree there's much room for me to mprove.

 

[plasmid303]

The HT ESB hair pieces have some incredible detailing and fine strands that I won't be able to accomplish at my current level of ability, but it's not right for RotJ Luke and honestly, I'm not particularly enamored with them.

If anyone is willing to sculpt a better ESB wig, I'd sign up for that list.

Thanks for those backgrounds Chew.

 

[astro666]

Great job on that ROTJ Luke plasmid, looks good.

 

[stshammgod]

Nice work on the hair. Especially if you say that's your second time sculpting anything!

Can only go up from here!

Don't sell yourself short man, I think it looks great!
