Rebel
My first commisioned mini:
Image
Image

Ezekul "Zeke" Bane
This was made for DuroZeke for his RPG character. I was so happy
with how he turned out that I felt bad to part with him, so I made
one for myself earlier this year. The lining on the robes is
actually crimson, but it didn't show too well in this photo.

Image
Image

Grace & Ashanii
A pair of custom requests for tonymorlock. This was my first attempt at using a wash
to change a lightsabers color. It worked, but I think I'll look into other methods
in the future, since it lost a bit of its transparency. Also, my first shot at a Togruta,
one of my favorite SW species. A lot of slender parts made gluing a bit difficult too.

Image
Image

Arriwarr
A custom request for Araquay, and my first attempt at swapping parts between
Wookiees. The continuous fur makes blending the parts difficult. A lot of fine
gluing for the custom Bowcaster and Ryyk blade.

Imperial

Zair Zetross
My third commisioned RPG custom, for a member of the same name. I'm told this character had a Republic/Imperial/Fringe career arc, but the 181st Pilot was lonely. (Yes, those are Black Lightsaber blades.)

Image
Image

Commodore Kieffer
A loooooong overdue custom request from Kieffer on the WotC boards.
This was my first attempt at using epoxy add-ons on a mini.

Image

181st Imperial Pilot(s)
A group of 181st re-paints made up using Ironlightsabers instructions.

Jettso Deen
My second commisioned piece, a Kel Dor Jedi Padawan PC for Nathanielstarr's Clone Wars Campaign. The hands were the most challenging bit.

Image
Image

ARC Trooper Captain
My first attempt to make a mini of ARC Captain Fordo. It's close, but I always feel that the pose lacks something of Fordo's mojo, so he's just a non-unique. I made stats for him once, but they're way outdated now. I'll give it another shot someday.

Image
Image

187th Clone Trooper Officer
HP: 30
Def: 15
Atk: +8
Dmg: 20
Order 66, Greater Mobile Attack, Twin Attack
Commander Effect: Followers with Order 66 and Greater Mobile Attack gain Twin Attack

The second incarnation of the 187th Officer I've made.

Image

187th Clone Trooper
HP: 10
Def: 14
Atk: +6
Dmg: 20
Order 66, Greater Mobile Attack

187th Clone Trooper Medic
HP: 10
Def: 14
Atk: +6
Dmg: 10
Order 66, Greater Mobile Attack, Emergency Life Support

I've had plans to make a 187th ISP as well.

Separatists
Image
Image

Alto Stratus
Famed leader of the Jabiim Nationalist Army, killer of Jedi Padawans, and long awaited commander of the Separatist Commandos. My first submission for The New Lost Twenty project over on the WotC customs forums. For step by step instructions on how to make on for your own, check out my blog article.

Image
Image

B3 Ultra Battle Droid
I actually hadn't intended to make one of these so soon, but I found one of the Unleashed SBDs individually packaged at Walmart. I think mine actually looks better than the GaW UBD.

Image

Geonosian Zombie
Whipped this up within 6 hours of seeing "Legacy of Terror". I think I captured the eyes, but the camera didn't want to focus on them. The charcoal wash gives it a good subterranean feel.
Update: New photo, including Overseer version made for Boss_Nass

Jing Jing Binks, Eoj Yef, & Skurg Gradoon
PC minis made for Herojoe's campaign (Yes, he's the son of THAT Binks). It's funny, but I had the idea to make a Ithorian Noble before I took this job, so I'll probably make another for myself later.

Image

Mandalorians

Bardan Jusik, Kal Skirata, Walon Vau, and Lord Mirdalan
A group of characters from the Republic Commando novel series, made by request for Grimmbolt. I've wanted to make these guys for a while. When I got the request for the 3 Mandalorians, it didn't feel right to make Vau without including his beloved pet strill.

Bendak Starkiller
Mandaloian Trooper repaint patterned after the KOTOR gladiator.

Castas
I kinda wish my first inspiration for a new custom in so many months had been for a more popular character, but I think he turned out well. Since he's an in-universe character, I wrote up another instructional for him. Check it out here.
Hadn't worked up any stats for him yet, but I was thinking something on par with Ponda Baba. Ideas?

Post subject:  Re: ARCTrooperA79's Custom Thread
Wow these look amazing. I should ask you to make some for me, although I think I have a steady hand for this myself, its the time issue more than anything.

I really like the Mandos, the strill looks a bit like a brood warrior from the marvel heroclixs line. And the Ewoks with Blaster is just way too awesome.

Been reading the Darth Bane trilogy by Drew Karpyshyn (great books), so I was inspired to make a few more minis based on those characters. Seemed a natural follow up to my Darth Zannah.

Image

First up, Valenthyne Farfalla, the charismatic Jedi Master who served alongside Lord Hoth at the Battle(s) of Ruusan. I was planning to do another instructional for him, but it seemed unnecessary given his simplicity (Imperial Knight #20 + Satyr from Underdark). Others to follow.

Next in what is looking to be a good size set of customs inspired by the Darth Bane trilogy, the Technobeasts. Bane fought an army of these rusting cyber-zombies to lay claim to the Holocron of Belia Darzu, the sith who originally created them.

You are my customizing HERO!!!
What did you use to make your sith-wookie's Lightsaber? I've tried to find one to scale on him but... inspiration has evaded me. :fight2:
