Chakaman's customs, mods and repaints

[big guy]

Yes I`m curious on what is planned for Fett too.

 

[Kamandi]

Fantastic work. I especially love the Boosk.

 

[Boba Felder]

Those 3 Amigos look VERY VERY cool!!!!
...Man I really need to get my hands on one of those GG Bust....and hack the hell out of it...LOL....

Like you said Chris...you dont have to mess with painting parts....

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks Kamandi. He will look even better when he finished, but I got to send him to Dorgs to cast first.

Feroze, BigGuy, I dunno yet. I am going to try to bulk Fett up a bit. make some adjustments to the outfit and maybe try to score a Marmit helmet. I really, really like McHaley's Fett.

Danny, I enjoy painting but its nice sometimes not to have to. I am really digging Bossk. When its all said and done he will cost about half of what Sideshow's will probably, not too shabby.

 

[feroze13]

ah... the Marmit mod....yeah, I'd love to do that too.
As for bulking him up, what body you got him on at the moment?

 

[big guy]

Sounds good Chaka bout the Boba mods and hopefully I can help out in one shape or another shortly on the Marmit helmet front

Now as for the body, Yes I`m curious to which body as I`m going to get the Medicom ESB and ROTJ Boba`s sometime (soon I hope) and would like to know how to height increase them both.

 

[feroze13]

this is the body i used tt advanced; exact match in height for a clone.
Chaka, big guy, where do you intend to pick up your marmit helm from?
Although, from the ref -the Medi aint bad.

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks Feroze. I need to find some good refernece pictures of him in the Empire Strikes Back. The Medi helmet looks fine, but if I could get a Marmit helmet I think I would switch it out.

I just have him on the Medicom body at the moment, the TT slim does look nice mate.


On another note, how tall is the Hasbro IG88??? I have seen some pics and it looks short, do the legs fold out or something??

they extend

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks Unsung!

The TT is great height wise, but slightly too wide width wise (if you're going for that Bulloch willowy look), I didn't mind too much because it was the height issue that bugged the hell out of me.

 

[enaud]

Bossk looks f-ing sweet.
I told myself that I was going to hold out to see if wax murderer come through but seeing yours is so tempting to try to snatch one of those busts up.

Chris-I need to check but I might be able to help you out on the IG if you haven't found one already.

 

[Boba Felder]

Chris...I snatched my IG on Ebay about two years ago for 1.98.....THAT was a great score...Me thinks!!!

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks guys. Yes Danny, that is a steal in my opinion for an IG88. They dont go for that anymore thats for sure.

Duane, PM sent my friend.

 

[big guy]

Cheer`s for the height issue for which body is best, need pick up on of those TT then.
As for the marmit helmet well I got one now and IF Dorg and there is a demand for a few, I`ll whizz mine to Mark to cast (if he`s game for others), though I may have a second Marmit Boba (not too sure yet) but told Chaka he can have the lid failing the above option.

As for IG`s height mate well going by the Wookiepedia they claim 6ft5 but I think he`s taller as I see Bossk as 6ft5-6 and wookiepedia claims 6ft2.

 

[Chakaman]

@BigGuy, thanks for the information on IG88 mate. Whatever you can do or decide to do with the Marmit bucket is okay with me. No worries if nothing works out, I appreciate the gesture.

While I am waiting on some bits to arrive for my bounty hunters, I thought I would do some touchup work to one of my favorite skiff guards....Wooof.

I added gauntlets and repainted his hands and face a bit lighter. I also did some dremmelling to the back of the head so the helmet would sit up a bit higher. I added a couple more layers of gloss to the eyes. nose and mouth areas after the repaint.

I will try to take some better pictures when their is better light.

 

[feroze13]

Sickeningly accurate, stop it, you're making my Woof jealous!

 

[Boba Felder]

Just to let you guys know...IG`s legs are extentable....he stands about 14" when legs pulled out to max...he looks pretty impressive next to my 4-LOM,Zuckuss and Dengar

 

[Chakaman]

@Feroze, thanks mate, sorry for the blurry pics.

@Danny, thanks for the info. I am really looking forward to giving it a repaint once I get my hands on one. You need to post some pics of all your bounty hunters together mate, they are awesome!

 

[Chakaman]

Here are some pictures of my most recent mods from the past month or so. I know you have seen them all, but I dont take a lot of pictures in natural light and wanted to share with you guys a few pics....


Repainted Gammy with neck mod and additional coverings on the back of the head....

Custom Dengar

Wooof, with a big help from Duane's AWESOME head sculpt!!
