Post subject: | Biggsy's customs and stuff |
Hello and welcome to my customs thread. After seeing a lot of great work done by others, i thought i'd share mine with you guys as well. I'll be posting pictures of whatever i make here, so check back once in a while if you like what you see. I'm fairly new to the world of customizing. It all started when Destiny of the Force was released, and i thought it might be cool to have an actual miniature representing the various characters in the set instead of using proxies. I started doing some research, but was a little hesitant to get started at first. The fear of making customs that really sucked was the main thing that held me back, but i finally mustered enough courage to get started and i'm really glad i did so. True, the first couple of minis i made was not that great, but i quickly got the hang of it i think. Mainly because of a lot of helpful forum members and their great advice, inspiration from all the other amazing customs on the forums, and also a lot of trial and error. I hope you'll enjoy this as much as i enjoy seeing other peoples work. And if you recognize some of the stuff and think "hey, that looks suspicously similar to mine", i hope you'll take that as a compliment -Biggsy |

Those are ridiculously good for your first customs. It is the fear of making crap customs that scare people from doing it, but then they turn out epic. |

I think your Winter and mine shopped at the same store. Just bought a different colored suit. |

Thanks for the kind words guys, i'm glad you like them. I'm more than happy with the way they turned out, as i was really expecting the first many customs i made to suck. As Wannabe Mexican points out, that's one of the main concerns before getting started. I had been planning to make customs ever since DotF came out, so about time i actually got started on them.

Really great work! Tacticle Officer, Atris, Mando Bounty Hunter (is that gun from Mr Freeze?), and Pellaeon all stand out. I like your Mando sniper as well! |

The Mandalorian BH is also one of my favorites. I think it turned out really good. And yes that's Mr. Freeze's gun allright, good call i thought it would be perfect for a flamethrower. Tactical Officer is losely based on a picture of General Garza (i think she's from the Old Republic game maybe?) that i stumbled upon when i was googling for some inspiration. I just updated the pictures to include the names of the minis, added a better picture of Sora Bulq, and posted pictures of these characters: Exar Kun, Dark Force Spirit (DotF) Admiral Saul Karath (RaR) Republic Commando Darman (RaR) Republic Commando Niner (RaR) |

No kidding, if I could roll out customs like these and had the time I would be selling them lol. They are great, it is surprising just how awesome a little creativity and a good paint job looks. Very jealous, I wish I had the time and space to customise, maybe one day. |

Well at the moment i'm having enough trouble trying to catch up with DOTF and RAR. I was kind of late to the party, so i'm hopelessly behind schedule. But maybe, if people were interested, i'd make a few commissions in the future. I'm glad you like them! Added these: Poggle the Lesser (DotF) Tusken Raider Chieftain (DotF) Jedi Diplomat (RaR) Luke Skywalker in Stormtrooper Armor (RaR) |

Thank you. The Citadel wash did most of the work though, that stuff is fantastic! |

I really like all the work I see here, but I think its the Admiral Saul Karath that stands out the most for me. I wouldn't say he had a huge roll in the KOTOR game, but in the KOTOR comics he was really just a jerk, and I think you hit it real good for a depiction of him. And I think all the Mandalorians are fantastic as well, certainly a fun bunch to paint up I bet heh! |
