Is nobody making custom figures anymore ??

Sounds great.

That looks great! But to answer your question, I'm sculpting the head and hands myself. A big key for me is making the neck and collar area all one seamless piece with the head. The Ree-Yees costume leaves that collar/upper chest area exposed, so I'd like my figure to have that exposed area be as seamless with the head as it was in the movie. Plus, sculpting is the most enjoyable part of this for me; especially sculpting creatures/aliens.

The funny thing is that I've been designing it to fit onto the most common TTM knockoff body that is all over eBay, in case this turns out really well and I can cast multiples for other people. Now that I see that set in your photo, I guess I don't need to worry about making multiple versions of mine after all.

i could use an upgrade set if you are selling extras

Does anybody know if anyone is doings lobot head ?
I made my own but would love a really decent one and hot toys aren’t filling me with hope?

I made some progress last night blocking out the basic shapes of the hands and the arms. For casting purposes I am keeping the hands and arms separate but that might be a mandatory segue into articulation, at least in the wrists.

So beautifully done, even with rough sections.

Incredible that no one has ever done a 1/6 Amana. Such a unique SW alien.

Outstanding job so far, Cagoda. Just thinking about the logistics of making this figure (especially the hands) makes me marvel at your commitment to it. If there was an award for custom figure of the year, you'd already have my vote - without even seeing it all finished. Incredibly impressive!!

Thanks man!! That really means a lot to me! This thing is taking forever but I want to make it right.

I've decided to sculpt it in separate pieces and figure out the articulation or not after sculpting is done. Here's a proof of concept! I enjoy it so far, it's been a lot of work.

The skin detail sculpting on that body is just superb.

I really wouldn't know where to begin taking on a project like this from scratch with just a lump of clay in front of me.

This looks great! Awesome work!

 

[Stryker2011]

Amazing. This is turning out so cool.

 

[Cagoda]

Thanks guys! I'm trying to make this right, it's just taking some time haha.

Sooooo... I’ve been working on a Hermi Odle sculpt. He’s the messiest of Jabba’s enforcers. My plan is to make his head/chest and hands out of foam and his feet out of resin so he could posed and not fall over constantly. Here’s some WIP pics.

 

[generalgrevious]

he be another another one i would like to add to the jabba display.

 

[Cagoda]

Awesome job!!!!
