YAKFINITIES #31 - Ladies of Star Wars
- Thread starter YAK_Chewie
- Start date
I posted the first set of pics of Laneena and her swoop in my main customs thread, using the pics I took to post for the ISY speeder & rider competition that closed at midnight tonight. Well, being a photo-shoot junkie, once I started, it was hard to stop... soooo... I kept shooting. Here's a couple of the better ones. Check out the shadow in #2!!
Now that's HOT. I love it. Very sexy looking, and extremely well put together. The hot pink looks great on her, and her skin tone is an original green shade. Nice work, and yeah - the shadow is freaking awesome. Wow.
Nice diorama piece too, I have one of those concrete block things that I bought from a Wal-Mart. I am planning on painting mine.

Yeah, I figure it should benefit from a decent weathering job, at the very least. As it was, I snatched it out of the pkg and plopped it straight into the photo-shoot just in time for my deadline. It's an awesome dio piece, fo' sure! 2 or 3 of them and you get a good speeder checkpoint scene going.
Hey Doc, great color choices - the skintone, pink highlights, down to even the makeup on her face - really nice. I can picture someone like her in the outlander club in AOTC...
Heres my first lady for this yakfinities challenge - its a flashback to the 80s, specifically the Droids cartoon series. This is a character named Gerin, I've included a reference shot from the cartoon so people would be able to know who she is, lol. I picked her because its seriously obscure and something I thought no one else would make, oh...and because she's BLUE!
Hot damn, I love it! What a fantastic figure. You nailed it right on the head with the parts and paint application. Very creative entry - one of my all time Yakfinities favorites, which is saying something when you consider there's been around a thousand entries altogether... wow.

Here's my entry, Morrigan Corde of the Legacy comics!
And my ladies of Legacy, just for inspiration, since the others are previously built customs.

Thanks Justin - this figure is made up of figure fodder that I didnt think I'd otherwise use, but when I combined the parts, a lightbulb went on in my head, haha.

Hot dog!! Droids characters gettin some lovin'!! Man, all ya need now is one of those Golden Compass cats to slap a mohawk on and yer all set!!
Here's my entry for the ladies... Jan Ors from the Dark Forces video game.
Jan was created from:
Head: Starkiller Hero
Goggles: GI Joe I think?
Upper Torso/Upper Arms: Endor Leia
Lower Torso/Lower Arms: RoC Courtney Krieger
Upper Legs/Knees: RoC Helix
Lower Legs: RoC Courtney Krieger
Feet: MU Ms. Marvel
The torso from the Endor Leia was really really tiny, but had the perfect appearance for Jan Ors that I was going for. So I hollowed out the inside of it completely, and then used the ol' Hot Glue trick to combine it and fit it onto the lower torso from the Krieger, in effect making the Leia torso into an upper torso, lol. But I think it worked and looks proportionate, at least to my eyes it does. The lower legs of the Krieger figure that I used, I "faked" the look and reversed them... the top portion, where I painted black for the knee pads, is actually supposed to be her pants, and the pants that I painted a light khaki to match the upper legs is actually supposed to be boots. But in the game, Jan wasn't wearing boots, she was wearing long pants and shoes... and again, I think it came out looking pretty good, or at least it came out looking the way I wanted it to look.

GT, yer girl on the right (Kee? the one w/ goggles) bothers me and I finally figured out why. She looks like an improved version of an old girlfriend of mine!! :roll: :mrgreen: Seriously, I *love* that fig of yours.
Joka - that is AWESOME!! I keep looking at that Leia, wondering what I can do with her other than making her into a teenager, since she's too TINY for anything else. That is a fabulous trick!
