Regalwindhund's Customs and W.I.P.

[Regalwindhund]

Hello everybody. Never been much of a poster, outside of the "Ginormous SW Reference Guide" thread, and what I've e-mailed a few people.Thought it was about time to man-up an post some projects. Advice is always welcome. Otherwise, how would I get better. P.S. Sorry for the large amount of pics.

First off, an Imperial Officer. Old Hasbro uniform. Still have to dye the uniform Feldgrau, polish his boots to nice shine, and complete his leather belt.

Now, my 1st completed Clone. I have to thank BobaMike, Lopie, and SpiderRogue for making it possible to make this guy. By the way, SpiderRogue's gonna start sellin' bodysuits for Clones. All I can say is, they're great!! Anyhow, this is Commander Bow of the 501st. The color pattern is from the Dark Horse Comics short etnitled "Purge". Gave'em some extra ammo packs on the left arm, an used a Medicom head provided by BobaMike, and a casted Pauldron supplied by Lopie.

An a few of Bow w/ a his modified DC-15, w/ a few modern military parts I had laying around.

Then this is my Sith Lord in progress. He's got a looooong way to go before he's finished, but he is the next in line to complete.

very very cool stuff....and glad to see your own thread..finally...lol...now..keep on posting new stuff...

 

[Regalwindhund]

You can count on it!

I like the contrast of the facial tatts against the white skin of your Sith Master. Great looking Appo too! Lots of him going around I see.

 

[Regalwindhund]

Thanks. I really wanted his face to "pop" out against his black garb. I also used my dremel tool to lightly carve the design into his face. Made it a lil' easier to paint, but I thought it helped the contrast between the black and the white. Love the quote from Halloween by the way. Great flick.

 

[mortifactor]

Thats a really cool sith, I'm cursed to forever see michael scofield with that headsculpt though lol, so weird him being a sith!

 

[Regalwindhund]

Lol!!! I know, right? I still see it from time to time After tinkering w/ a few heads his just seemed to be the right one, proportions an all. His "Prison Break" brother Dominic Purcell (the HT Broad-Shouldered TT) is currently a 1/6 scale Marine at Hue. Due to one being a Marine, the other being an intergalatic being of unspeakable evil. They don't see each other often. Lol!!

 

[The_Darkness_Predator]

Those are are really awesome. Great work. I even saved pics of your dark lord in progress on my pc for inspiration.

 

[Regalwindhund]

Why thank you sir! I'll be postin' more later, and he'll have a few new add-ons to show off. Lol!! Seriously though, thank you. Cheers!

More Sith:

Patching some rivet holes in the shin armor.

Magnets drying to the inside of the collar, necessary for his cape/cloak.

Added a lil' pouch to the belt, and made a lightsaber hook from matte black embossing metal.

I'll post more later. Waiting for the glue on the magnets to dry, and the milliput to harden on his shin armor. In the meantime, I know a Dark Lord who's in need of a new Lightsaber.

VERY impressive work there Regalwindhund ! Top class Trooper and especially love the Sith . Great attention to detail on his gear and I'm very curious to see what else you have planned for him . And shame on you for keeping these to yourself ! ( With an added for being naughty. )

 

[Chakaman]

That Sith Lord is looking good. I like the looks of the armor you are giving him.


I am looking forward to following this thread. I cannot wait to see what you come up with in the future. I think its great more of you guys are starting your own threads and showing off your work.

 

[spiderrogue]

hey..i have my own thread....****ers..lol..just kidding...
im just glad that he finally posted his stuff...he had been showing me pics for awhile now and ive been nagging him to do it...lol..about time he listened...like talking to my 13 yr old boy...lol...stubborn...

 

[Regalwindhund]

Thanks for all the kind words guys, much appreciated. SpiderRouge's correct on me bein' stubborn. Lol!! He'd been tellin' me to post some of my stuff, an I wasn't budgin'. Just self-conscious I guess. It got to a point an I said , why not?

 

[thundergod]

Hey , there's nothing to be self conscious about , especially with obvious skills like you have . We're all one big happy family here in this murky corner of the forum . ( Think of Spiderrogue as that weird uncle your Mum warns you about ! )

 

[Regalwindhund]

Lol!! True. I guess I've been used to doing military figures for so long, an people can get reall nit-picky about accuracy on those forums. Nothin' wrong with them, or the people on their, I sometimes felt like I'd get torn to shreds. Not that accuracy is a bad thing either I love military history. I do this hobby for fun though, an the last thing I want is to bust ass just to appease the "Lords of Historical Accuracy". My library of reference material, for subjects ranging from the years 1914-1975, is over a few hundred books. Not too mention the odd book here an there to help w/ completing modern USMC an various other branches of the military. It's fun here though, and I get to be far more creative w/ my pieces. Plus, it's Star Wars. It can't get any better than that.

Regalwindhund's Custom's and W.I.P: Sith Lord Updated

Here are the greaves, attached by leather strap, and functional buckle.

The cape, back and profile.

His training is not yet complete.......

Had tons of other pics, but the lighting in my room blows. A couple here were taken during the day so they look okay. I'll take more tomorrow after he gets some more work done.

 

[OutLander]

Very nice work. Love the way you used the Kerberos Panzer Cop armor to make your sith lord.....great use of parts. Can't wait to see him finished.

Nice eye! I bought two of the Takara figures sometime ago, and really wanted to do something w/ one of'em. I used the chest armor, the leather-like undersuit, I had to steal the unspiked pauldron from the other fig (who has two big spiked pauldons now Lol!!), and I modded the greaves. The hands work well too, really expressive.

 

[hemble]

Regalwindhund totally enjoyed looking at the figures you have done the details and pains apps are stunning.
