Unbelieveable Chewie!!! This miner is all sorts of cool. The helment is just full or creativity, I would have never guess the parts you used. How do you come up with these ideas man?? Love it!!!

Thanks, this was just one of those things where the two helmets I thought looked cool together when combined, and realized I had somewhat butchered an Ackbar in a failed custom earlier. The helmet fit perfect for a large weird mask of some sort, so I just went with it.

Great selection of parts. Sometimes we see a body and pigeon hole it for a figure or species. This custom encourages us to consider new vantage points.

Love the paint job. Great use of masks but the paint job makes this figure.

I love this design, what exactly did you do to the helmet?

Really cool idea - the only suggestion I have is that the gloves might be better suited for a different color, so that they dont look anything like Ackbars flesh tone.

Thanks, all I did was take two of the Anakin training helmets, and glue them together. Then I glued on the thermal detonator to look like some sort of viewport. Then slapped on some paint.
