SSC 1:6 Bespin Luke Pics

No, hence why I own the soundtracks

As for the hair coloring, the shade Sideshow used on this Luke is definitely what I envision for Luke's hair color in ESB, I've always considered it to be a shade of brown. ANH - Bloned, ESB/ROTJ - Brown. It happens, I was blonde as a kid but now I have light brown hair.

Same here. My hair turned from Blonde to Dark brown in a matter of 2 years.

As for Mark's hair in ESB, it's very much a brown. Just a little light here and there at the wisps. Same in Jedi, if not just a tad darker. But in ANH it was blonde as Hell.

Perhaps he dyed/bleached it for the first film? His hair looks pretty brown in this photo which I think? was taken before his car accident:

This makes me want to custom an ESB Medical Leia and Luke. Why must I be broke?

Thanks for posting that picture DA, helps to see the underlying sculpt. Sideshow really did a nice job on Bespin... now if I could just get my replacement boots all will be well.

 

[galactiboy]

I realized I never posted a shot of the mis-matched boots... so here ya go. I swear I wasn't being to a'nal And it actually looks a bit worse in person

 

[Cocoboloboy]

Are you gonna send him back galactiboy? Mine aren't matching either but not nearly as drastic as yours.

Why send him back - I don't even see that as a fault ... a little thinners and a q-tip would do the job quite fine . not that it looks that bad to start Now if you got 2 left or 2 right boots???

Get a wet paper towel and start rubbing. That paint will comes right off.

Hmm interesting. I didn't think water would take it off so easily. Also, nice grammar there.

 

[galactiboy]

Honestly I don't want to mess with it on my own. I'd rather have a product where they matched then have me jack it up by accident.

Got my bespin Luke today, it's an awesome figure! It has been a while since I got a new star wars figure and I will say I like the softer hands that the earlier figures had, it was easier to change the hands and to get weapons in their hands. But its still cool

Smart move, I'm actually getting my Luke replaced, the bad wrist pin is a big nag and since Sideshow's so nice about taking care of customer's, I'm going that route rather than dump more money into new bodies and all. Sending him out next week so should probably have a new one some time before Christmas.

I know people always say this, but it actually does look worse in pictures. And I'm usually not to worried about figures being perfect (case in point, I like Yavin Luke) but this just stands out way to much on an otherwise amazing figure.

I didn't care for the oversized collar, so I used some transparent thread and made it roughly half the size.

Great work, that looks much better.

Just finished my Luke..... It was really a lot of fun, especially the bruising.

 

[pixletwin]

Very nice work Josh.

Wow, looks great DA! How did you fray the shoulder seams?
