Nice!

 

[ArtDamage]

Yep. If I hadn't already bought 2 when they went on sale I'd have considered it. Very nice figure. Pops on the shelf.

Got three, that's enough for me, really want a commander Fox. But independent artist really make a killing just by customizing Coruscant commando clones.

Line work on his helmet seems like a real pain in the ass, but Thorne is probably pretty doable and would be my choice for a commander to accompany my two. Just need a Vaughn and the kama set.

May the 4th be with you all!

Awesome shots @DuskRaider! Love your mods- and 4 of them look incredible. I had them set up like this for the last month loaded up with backpacks and weapons--these guys are so great. They will look awesome flanking the recent Sidious announcement!

I’ve got a Kama on the way for my Captain as well as some DC-17s to hang off of his belt. He’ll be a not-Thire

I have been considering picking up some more packs for them to fully kit them out as well.

Dusk--oh man, that would be so legendary when you get that set up. Post more shots of them--this grouping you have is really something special.

Yeah absolutely I will. I wanted to take some outdoor shots with them for May the 4th but I ran out of time.

I do want to pick up one or two more as well. I’ve considered converting up a Heavy and an Arc Trooper but I don’t think Coruscant Guard has Arcs.

That is a gorgeous display right there. Do they use Hot Toys bodies and armour, or 3D print the armour? I'm guessing this is the company in France(?), they're a bit on the pricey side. Just looking at the Phase 2 Fox really *insert word I'm not allowed to use on this forum* me off that Hot Toys went with the Phase 1 look.

The artist is based in London, from the way I see you'll have to supply him a complete Hot Toys clone figure for him in order to perform a requested commission work.

I kind of wish I hadn’t seen that, now I want Gar Saxon, Gree, and Gregor customs. Kind of cool he’s here in the UK, on the other hand that probably means he’s twice as expensive Some elite level work there though.

He quoted me at $500USD for a Thorn. He’s a really nice guy but that’s too expensive for me. Admittedly I don’t remember if that was if I supply the base figure or he does.

Some price that, no thanks. With regards to the clones Hot Toys will likely make them all one day anyway.

Ehhh… I’m not too sure about that. That’s what baffles and irks me so much about Phase I Fox. Their output isn’t exactly cheetah speed, their announcements are scattered among various IPs and it takes them a year or more to put out a product. I doubt we’ll see a lot of the Clones / Battalions that we would like.

I may end up just trying my hand at making my own Phase II Fox eventually. It’s mainly just finding a seller for the parts that has a high resolution printer to where there isn’t much in the way of matrixing and then finding myself a cheap donor body.

It’s sandtrooper variants dilemma all over again…. Hope we’ll see more clone variants soon, especially commanders. They have molds for everything already!

Hey everyone! I finally finished my Coruscant Guard Commander today, Commander Judge. I am a big fan of the Coruscant Guard and have been wanting to make some custom figures for them for some time now.

This guy is a mix of a bunch of different parts from all over the place. The range finder is from Captain Rex, the extra hands are from the 501st Clone Trooper, the pauldron is from Kamino3DFacility, and the Kama, DL17 pistols and holsters are from OneSixthClones.

I painted the hands red to give a little more flair to the figure than a normal Trooper and I’m considering doing a red stripe on the gauntlets but I’m not sure yet. I do have another Shock Trooper coming along with parts to make a Heavy Trooper ala Battlefront and I don’t want them looking too similar in terms of customization.

The one problem I’ve found is that the paint on the pistols tends to rub off on the hands when attempting to hold them, even after adding a clear coat so I may snag some Rex pistols off of eBay and use those for when they’re unholstered. Otherwise he’s done!

 

[DuskRaider]

Here’s my WIP Heavy Trooper. I just need to add the stripes on the helmet and finish painting the DC-15LE and he’s done. I’ve also done some updates on the Commander including a new pauldron, HT DC-17s and a harness for the Kama.

@DuskRaider amazing creations, happy to see customization! Rare these days (or am I in the wrong threads?). Do you have any more figures in development?

Not at this time, no. Coruscant Guard seem to be going for a lot more than they used to be so it’s kind of limited my opportunities. I’d like to do a Pilot or Sniper at some point but it’s not a priority at this point. The two I really wanted were an Officer and Heavy and I was able to accomplish that so I’m good for now.

The cool thing is that if I *did* want to do a Pilot the heads aren’t too expensive on eBay and all it requires is a helmet repaint. The body armor is exactly the same as the regular Trooper so it’s exceedingly easy to pull off. Even the Specialist is pretty simple. I did consider an Arc Trooper but I don’t think Coruscant Guard used them.

Edit: I should say that I *am* working on some stuff but not Clone oriented. I’m actually about to redo my 1/4 scale Mando’s armor using Graphite Dust to attain a more accurate look to the Beskar… which is a bit nerve wracking because if I botch it I’m up the creek.
