Official Sideshow 1/6 ANH Darth Vader PHOTO Thread

[eczamurai]

The only thing that bugs me about the body swap you guys have been doing is how MASSIVE it makes his boots and chestpack etc..

 

[Customikey]

I used an old style Hot Toys Pred body, and it works perfectly!

 

[ShortRound]

Extremely pleased with the outcome. All the mods done, KP02 body, Hasbro dome, Lforigno cape and tunic, and shorten the gloves a bit. Cathode saber on the way.

Thinking about giving the dome a flat coat. Other than that, I think I'm done.

Big thanks to everyone that contributed to making this SS Vader perfect.

Just dull coated the dome. I think that's what he needed. Gloss was throwing it a bit off for me.

Coming up.........

Great job Shorty, I'm jealous.

Thanks Dr. Odd!

"Only a master of evil Darth"

My son and I have been quoting that ALL DAY!

**** yeah!!!

Your old Ben is brilliant too man. I hope HT does both him & ANH Vader at some stage, because I couldn't be bothered trying to piece together nice ones like yours.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Wicked! That Ben is outstanding... but then again so is Vader. The two together are rock-solid!

And you were right about dulling the dome. Looks more like ANH Vader.

 

[barryo]

hey short round.............is your ben mods a repaint, new shirt, & a little extra padding at the waist? or a bit more than that. he looks awesome.

 

[shockwave]

ShortRound,

Your custom Vader looks sooooo cooool!

 

[ShortRound]

Thanks man! I actually REALLY hope HT puts one together. I seriously doubt it though.

Thanks Greg! I just need to add that widows peak. Need me a sculptor.

Yes, fully customized. Repaint, HT body, HT Kevin Flynn belly pouch, and HT hands. The outfit is all SS however I water treated all of it. Makes it look like it has that 1:1 scale weight. I also threw a small weight in hood. Makes it fall naturally.

ShortRound,

Your custom Vader looks sooooo cooool!

Thanks Shockwave!

What type of ht body did you use

 

[ShortRound]

What type of ht body did you use

It's on a narrow shoulder!

 

[drjedisith]

perfect body. i had hurricane put mine on a narrow as well back in the day. really brought out the classic A shape. not a fan of him all huge busting out of his clothes

 

[Lejuan]

I wish I'd picked up an Old Ben and had a repaint done. I'll have to hold out for a future re-release, however unlikely that is. They look awesome together, nice work Short Round!
