I always liked heroic senators, think of Bail Organa kind of person... Hmmm... does that sound good to you? Can also be a commander, yeah, almost anything with the senate. Aslong as they are good. :wink:
Yakfinities # 42 - Mirrored Reflections
- Thread starter YAK_Chewie
- Start date
Got a new one:
SW Reporters and Camera crew.
I thought having different species with recording devices for news would be cool.

Mirrored Reflections
If it wins I may make a Republic Battle Droid (white & black) & Confederacy Clone Trooper (tan or red.).

Looks like 'Mirrored Reflections' snagged it with one extra vote - I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet, and I dont know if I want to make a primary character. I may do a Jedi to Sith or Rebel to Empire...hmm... Good idea for the Halloween season though!
Yeah, this actually opens things up a bit for characters to almost be "in costume" - ha ha. I also could see this exanding even further than maybe a "Dark Yoda" or things like that...
Look for example at some of the concepts that came from characters - a "Mirrored Reflection" anyone shave book, The Power of Myth? I thought I had that somewhere, will try and look some... there are some cool correlations there between Greek Mythology, Ancient Legends, etc. that helped inspire some of the Star Wars characters.

Still working on my entry. I decided to go with something different than the Republic Battle Droid and Separatist Clone trooper.
I decided on an idea as well, and I am working on it now - I was inspired recently by the news that we might get our first Nightsister action figure!
So, money is tight presently, but I did want to enter this round so here is Chewy as a Jedi.

I told my 5 year old nephew Jamie about this challenge, and he made a custom for it last night, the pics arent great because they are from a cell, but here is the figure he created: Kit Sith-To! haha
When I went over to his house yesterday, more than a dozen figures had been customized, with swapped heads, hands, armor, cloaks - you name it, not only is it great to have a little SW fan - but a customizer no less!

Cool stuff so far, I'm jealous because I haven't even seen a CW Chewbacca yet... and the 5-year old customizing is awesome! My 4-year old is starting to mix parts in my figures a lot lately, it's so cool.
Ok, here's my first updates for this... I took a different approach, in how some classic themes from world history contributed to the ideas for the characters in the films... think the Dark Ages here... I also took some inspiration from THE POWER OF MYTH book.
Luke Skywalker - Medieval Knight of Hope
head - Evolutions Luke Skywalder
torso - Indiana Jones figure
shoulders - Indiana Jones figure
forearms - Comic Pack Ulic Qel Droma
hands - SDCC Destro
tunic - Indiana Jones figure
legs - Comic Pack Ulic Qel Droma
Obi Wan Kenobi - Medieval Magician
head - Narnia figure
hat - Harry Potter line (from Hogwart Castle)
torso - SAGA Emperor Palpatine
bandolier - TAC Rahm Kota
tunic - SAGA Emperor Palpatine
arms - Comic Pack T'ra Saa
hands - ROTS Chancellor Palpatine
Darth Vader - Medieval Knight of Darkness
head - fodder bin
hood - Evolutions Darth Nihilus
mask - GI JOE figure
torso - SDCC Destro
shoulder gear - Evolutions Mandalore
arms - SDCC Destro
hands - fodder bin
tunic - SDCC Destro
legs - SDCC Destro
weapon - Iron Man Drone weapon merged with IG Lander Droid weapon
And here are a couple more shots:
I had a good time making these, I might branch out a bit with some other classic characters in this style. Seeing work by Sillof helped motivate me to try out something a little different.
:wink:

Excellent subject matter for the Yakfinities!!
Justin your Obi-Wan reminds me of Orko from He-Man Masters of the Universe! LOL!

Awesome creations! Luke looks cool, but for some reason my mind can't fathom a way he would have a medieval prosthetic hand. Oh, I got it! A wooden hand with pull-on ropes!
Chewie, very freaky Vader you got there, almost scary looking - it reminds me of the miners from the movie Silent Hill!
Do EU primary characters count for this contest (such as an alternate Thrawn or Revan)? I've got a fun idea but not sure if it fits this contest.
