OMG! I don't believe it.

You really keep surprising me!
Excellent stuff out here as usual! And you are even getting better with each new figure you make!

I really like your Lucien Draay. The sculpted symbols on his robe look excellent.
Did you give him the same head you used for the Wesker custom before?

About Calo Nord:
In a word: AWESOME!!!
I am bad at parts guessing but I think I can identify some of them at least.
Arms: from TLC "Brainiac".
Torso and upper legs:
from an Indy figure.
Lower legs: don't know for sure.
Feet: from "Jango Fett".

Am I right?

You said that you use Green Stuff for sculpting, didn't you?
I was able to find this material in German stores, too and bought some.
Can you give some expert hints and clues for a beginner in sculpting with Green stuff?

Really, really nice figures. Absolutely great work!

The number of entries is mind boggling! If this isn't the biggest YF yet, I don't know which is :shock: I especially like the diversity you guys have shown. Can't wait to see Chewie's collage of the entries.

Speaking of entry:

This round of YAKfinities has seen some really nice contributions so far. But I am still anxious to see Incom's Jedi :wink:

I'm very sorry to say mine won't make the deadline of er... today :? I'll finish him of course, it's just that a number of things happened that slowed me down quite a bit. First, I went to a rock festival in Germany last weekend and slept in most of the Monday afterwards. Then I had appointments practically every evening after work after that. And since the beginning of this week I've been under the weather quite a bit, feeling quite fatigued after work. Don't know what it is, but the minute I lie down on the bed I fall asleep :? Burn out? I don't believe in such things, but I do believe in what my body tells me. Anyway, I won't bore you with my excuses any longer and look forward to be getting back in the game full swing real soon!

You're just getting old Incom, no worries! :lol:

I agree, this has been a great Yakfinities and it's become my favorite part of this hobby. It's extremely enjoyable to see so many people still being a part of these, who would have thought that we'd already have done 30 of these? I was afraid when we launched the first one over three years ago that we'd only do a handful of them.

We've definitely got a great thing going here, and it's all because of the different people in the community rolling up their sleeves and having fun.

:wink:

Nice to see another cool bounty hunter before the challenge wraps up! This is going to be a serious round-up! I have to agree with what Chewie said - I joined Yakface because of the great community that exists here, especially when it comes to customizing - I actually dont even post random customs much anymore, and I just stick to yakfinities - thats how much fun they are!

No problem, Incom!
Even if the guy won't make it into this round of YAKfinities, he is probably going to become another masterpiece.
Hope that you feel a bit better already. Get well soon, buddy!

Yep! Really nice round with lots of entries. Congrats and thanks for all participants who shared their great stuff with us.
Very well done!

I've finally finished my entry for this challenge literally moments ago...too many interruptions like vacation...lol...and a time consuming process that I wanted to try made this custom took way longer than I would have liked. Like many others here I was inspired by the very first concept are piece for the armored jedi and decided that was the one I wanted to do. And one I commit to a figure I won't not do it if I see others or similar ones. This one took quite along time because I actually hollowed out to leg armor to fit over the figures legs. I used a micro man to try this technique out for added articulation....while I'm happy with how it turned out....there are things I learned that I will do differently next time. So on to my jedi.

Now, as always these are picked randomly, so each participant has a chance at winning. With that said, we have three winners for this one.

First Pick of a Prize - darth phantom

Second Pick of a Prize - stocos28

Third Pick of a Prize - Order66Outlaw

So, the way this will work is darth phantom will get to choose which of the three prizes he wants. He will need to declare that in this thread - after that, stocos28 gets dibs on the next prize. After he declared what he wants, then Order6Outlaw will receive the remaining prize.

Now, here are the three prizes:

After you have declared your prize selections, a Yakface Staff member will be in touch with you to claim your prize.

Special thanks to our sponsors http://www.kandccollectibles.com and http://www.entertainmentearth.com for their help! And congratulations to the winners as well as a big thank you to all of our forum members who took part. These are always fun, and we really do appreciate the great community that our forum members have made by being active members of the Yakface Forums.

Indeed it was great, your entries in particular were a couple of my favorites. I especially liked your take on the Sith Lord from the trailer - I like how you went a different route than most people did as you sculpted the head.

I wish that we could have surprised everyone with each member who participated getting a prize - maybe one of these days we can do something like that.

:wink:
