Another sketch.

I need to be more patient and do cleaner linework.

 

[GeneralZodLives]

That's awesome. Makes me want to get one just to try it out.

 

[Snake Plissken]

You can't beat it for the price, plus Paint Tool Sai is free... if you know where to look.

 

[Pro Design]

that's pretty sweet! you doing it freehand or tracing something?

 

[Snake Plissken]

Thanks! I always do freehand and just think up stuff.

I broke down and bought the SS Darth Maul figure with the $50 code today. Considering what's included in the box, he should have been that much from the very beginning.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I'd get it, but having no robe is pretty lazy. That's such a iconic look for him and they didn't bother. SSC moves in mysterious ways...

Yeah, pisses me off they didn't include the robe, especially for a $240 figure. The likeness is pretty damn good though, and $50 off is about what I thought the price should have been in the first place.

you could whip one together pretty easy w/ some material from joanne fabrics or michaels. all these custom capes you see for ridiculous amounts can be reproduced yourself w/ a little time and effort/trial and error. i've seen most of the same type / quality material at those places they are using to make those capes. get a yard for $5 and test it out three or 4 times before you make a final.

I wouldn't mind giving it a shot. The robe is not an absolute must-have for me, but it would be a nice addition. If I ended up being able to make 1/6 scale capes and robes then all of my figures would end up wearing them.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Funny it's literally the same price as HT Obi Wan and he's got a robe

I know. ****ing Sideshow has gotten so cheap with their figures but still wants to charge more than Hot Toys.
