Luke Skywalker - DX07 - HOTH PATROL

[One-Figure-Collector]

This is my very first attempt of creating a customized action figure from Luke Skywalker Hot Toys:

It took me almost half a year to compile all the necessary material and to find a way to make my vision of Luke Hoth Patrol come true ...

Hoth hat, jacket and shirt were completely hand-made / tailored, the goggles and gloves heavily customized from existing 1/6 scale material.

Hope you like it despite the newly announced Sideshow version!

Very nice work dude

 

[Keenan]

That looks really good. The work certainly paid off.

 

[Chakaman]

That looks fantastic. Really, really nice work. Well done.

great work!

Excellent work , Like how you have customized this bad boy, only hope Hot Toys are gonna be able to get theirs as good as this puppy.

Well worth all the effort you must have put in.

Shameless plus , i am selling some Hoth Gear if you're interested in bashing another figure .

Not a SW fan here , but cool looking figure

 

[OutLander]

Looks like all that work paid off, Hoth Luke is really an excellent figure.

Hope you like it despite the newly announced Sideshow version!

Just means you only need to buy the Tauntaun now.

Thank you all for the kind words! Any further hints / suggestions for improvement are highly appreciated.

Currently, I am working on Luke´s storage box which will be inspired by HT style, of course ...

NIce job! I like that you put the insignia on his right arm. Thats one detail I left out on mine. This may be another "is Hans jacket blue or brown" debate but the insignia on his right chest should be white not silver. His scarf is a bit dark too. Sorry for the criticism

 

[RJMacReady16]

You should be proud. Looks like a HT release.

awesome job. I have wanted to do the same for a while now.

Many thanks for your input! Maybe I missed it, but have you already posted pics of your Hoth Commander and can send the link?

My thread is here. Luke's on page 3. The pics are horrible/distorted. he looks way better in person.

Good work (also true for the others such as Bariss, Jango)! Which head sculpt have you used for Luke?

 

[Natedog]

Thanks. The luke head is a recast of an old hasbro luke head I believe. I got a couple off eBay. Likeness is pretty good but there are a few flaws in the cast if you look close and know where they are. The paint on my hoth luke isn't the best but I got another in the works which I think is much better. The Bariss and Jango are both hasbro heads as well repainted.

As promised, I would like to show you some pics of the shrine that I´ve created for my customized figure. Hope, you like it ...
