S.C., Awesome job with Jaydex Xandier! This guy totally reflects the designs of KOTOR. IMO, the pirates head you used really has an prequelish Jedi look to it, but gives him an edge as to possibly be on the brink of changing sides. Nice job on sculpting his tunic and the outfit. The colors really work to give him a darker theme.
Chewie, Thanks so much for the comments and the kind words. It's really a blessing to have a couple of cool sites where people can gather and "show and tell" our customs, learn new techniques, and get creative feedback on the figures we make.
I was kind of worried that Heelsawn-Gi would be too evocative of the Jar Jar base that I used, but to me, it just had a cool, different-looking take on the Jedi robes. I tried to make the Mara hood flow into the upper part of the robes that I painted in a matching tan. Though I dunno how well this carries over - particularly from a front picture. With Brun, I was really inspired to include some brighter colors in his armor (like the yellow wash over the white). I can picture the brown, drab robes kind of becoming a uniform of sorts over time - -- not necessarily having always been the Jedi outfit of choice. Oh, by the way the collar on Brun is cut away from a ROTS Mas Ameda robe. I used the same piece a while back for a Darth-ish Anakin I made, but think it looks much better on a larger frame, such as an Ithorian.

I appreciate them. Jaydex is actually a concept from my old x-box character from KOTOR. Pretty bad A$$ He's unstoppable but still have not finished my game yet
