Yakfinities #28 - Organic Separatists

Thanks, guys! The funny part is that he was made entirely from parts that I considered "left-overs", all of which (coincidentally) came from Sith Lords.

The head is from RotS Palpatine (the one with the replaceable head), the cape is from an old PotF2 Darth Vader and everything else is from a TPM Jedi Duel Darth Maul. The headgear was sculpted with Super Sculpey.

Excellent man. I also like to use all the parts of the figures I take apart so I make "sausage" customs with the leftovers heh, like a butcher ;-) Just background citizens n stuff.

Head-Carkoon Boba Fett
Torso-Crimson Empire Royal Guard
Legs and armor-Jango Fett removeable armor
Arms-500th Vader
Belts-Mara Jade (comic) Battle armor 25th Cobra Commander
Shoulder gun-Chewie Welder

Wow, where did you find this guy? It's a great looking custom! Did he appear in a video game or something? Happy customizing!
 
Dyman Kath: A Zabrak mercenary employed by General Oro Dassyne as an advisor and bodyguard, Kath was generally believed to have survived the fall of Dassyne's garrison on Bomis Koori IV, although his whereabouts were unknown.

Parts: Head (TPM Jedi Duel Darth Maul), Body (WWII Paratrooper), Blaster Rifle (PotF2 Boba Fett).

Reference: None. This character is entirely fan-fic.

I had to Dremel out the neck hole a bit for the new head to seat properly. Once the head was attached, the rest was a matter of painting. I stayed close to the original paint scheme because I felt that it wasn't particularly distinctive of an "earth" military unit. After painting, the entire figure was given a light coating of Testors Dull-Cote.

Neimoidian General:

Head: Rune Haako
Helmet: Durge (comic pack)
Body: Neimoidian officer

Some precision x-acto-ing for the helmet. But seriously kids... wear goggles when you work with those things. The blade broke when I was cutting something else, it went flying in a random direction, could easily have gone into my eye, or heck, my jugular. Found it clear across the room after a 20 minute search.

Wow, that is pretty dang impressive Kikinou. I really like the idea that you came up with in cutting out a Durge helmet - it really looks sharp and fits well on that head.

I wonder what you have planned for the rest of the Durge body? 8)

I also like the Zabrak a lot, you don't see enough of that species made in my opinion... it's nice to see more of them.

The Cydon Prax custom is also very cool. I remember seeing his design a while back and have always wanted to make one myself.

:wink:

Thanks!! The head had to be cropped quite a bit actually, including a big slice in the middle! hehe

I was thinking maybe make a droid out of the rest of Drudge? Er I mean Durge ;-)

Agreed! This is a great looking figure and just like the Zabrak species, I don't think we see enough Neimoidians. After all, they were one of the core groups in the Sep Alliance. I might have to add another one to the mix before this Yakfinities is done...

Wow! there are some nice additions since I last checked in on this one.

Darth Kikinou - The helmet and cape adds a lot and changes up the look of the Neiimodian figure very nicely. The helmet makes me say "I AM SPARTA!" In a good way...

Then the honor guards with Nute's new chair are top notch as well.

DJN - Love the Zabrak. That is an awesome repaint on the Darth Maul head.

Tonphanan - Cydon Prax looks great man. Just like the reference photo. Great use of Chewie's welder.
