I like it, Nate! The teeth look real unhealthy, just like they should.

I really like your shelves! The Vader/Imperials shelf is awesome. And that Emperor is great, I love the robe too. I've saved some force lightning for my custom Emperor (it came with another Hasbro fig, not sure which) but yours looks perfect without any "plastic lightning"!

Those SSC officer hats are so tall in the background. Can those be pushed back a bit to hide the height?

Thanks guys!

Talibane - The ssc officer caps are a bit tall and at that camera angle they look worse than they really are. I was excited when Praji came in since all I've had up until now were the hard ones. I was disappointed. I prefer the hard ones. They have a better overall shape

The cloth officer hats look really good if they are futzed. I get mine damp and then form to the head. It takes some patience, but I like the look better. Everyone has different tastes.

I wouldn't repaint Praji, I would just get a better headsculpt.

Interesting - I've never had any of the SSC officer gear - always just slumming it with modded Hasbro!

That looks good, Nate. I've got an extra head of hers I've been meaning to do the same thing to for a while and never have got around to it.

If you don't mind Nate, I'm going to steal this look on the eyes for my Master Di sculpt. It'll be my first attempt at painting eyes and these are exactly the look I'm going for.

no, thats the SSC Ventress head from a few years back. I did shrink it though.

You didn't miss anything Chris. Its the first post and she isn't finished yet, but thanks!

Oh wow. That's awesome dude. Excellently done, my friend.

Thanks Tyler!

HE LIVES!!! Where you been dude? I told you I was looking for a Ventress head Like I said above its just the SSC headsculpt repainted, so you can get one anywhere. The paint...well I'm no professional, you could probably do better.

Kinda feminine...but you're the boss lol

I just meant the color layering of the Iris. Master Di's eyes are the same blue.

Re: Natedog's figure bashes and customs - Palpatine pg32

Started his outfit. The pants are some German pants I picked up for cheap. Removed all the belts and buttons and dyed them blue. The undershirt I made, but have to dye a darker blue. Next onto the yellow vest and that quilted vest Oh and I lowered his head a bit too.
