That has been on my radar a bit, using Assassin's Creed for fodder for this Yakfinities... also considering buying some Ages of Action figures... which look amazing.

Yakfinities # 42 - Mirrored Reflections
- Thread starter YAK_Chewie
- Start date
OK, I'm not sure if this is really an official entry because it wasn't originally made for this contest, but I liked how he came out so I thought I'd post it. I guess you could say this falls under the Mirrored Reflections theme if I pretend this is a figure of Figrin D'an after having joined the dark side. A Bith Sith... Enjoy!
Thanks for sharing, that's pretty cool.
I have an idea for a "Sith Council" that I'd love to make, Sith versions of the 12 Jedi Council members... will I have time? I doubt it, but I could make half the council maybe...
:wink:

A Sith council would be awesome, as would a robotic council - like the one created by Kazdan Paratus on Raxus Prime.

Oh wow, you're right! This would be a great chance to do his "junk sculpture" council. That would be some project!
Hope to see some more entries, kinda slow so far! This theme wasn't the one I voted for but there is certainly a lot of potential for it.
I have an idea that really could be fun... imagine a group of Tusken Raiders who found a downed ship on Tatooine... unlike most Tuskens who would salvage the parts, one particular group decided to try and use the ship as a weapon to gain and defend more territory... but being unfamiliar with the technology, they blasted to hyperspace, and ended up crashing on a snow planet like Hoth... they had to adapt to the new environment... they no longer wore desert gear, but had to find new clothing in the harsh cold weather.. Snow Tuskens! Or something to that effect. I kind of think making a couple could be fun, they could have some elements of their old outfits still like the masks and straps, but the rest would be more catered toward the cold weather. Maybe animal skins and the like.

I really like this idea. Any interest in splitting it into two groups of six to tackle together?
I'd love to but man I don't think I am going to be able to pump out 6 more customs on this... I am planning on doing 3 though, with chairs. I don't know which characters however... I'd have to figure out which characters I even have parts for to try and tackle it.
:wink:
:wink:
What do you mean by Sith Council? A council of actual Sith characters, or the Jedi Council repainted to look like Sith? If the former, I might have enough new custom Sith to make part of the council (Zannah, Plagueis, Tenebrous, repainted Bane, etc). If the latter, I have parts for Sith Ki-Adi Mundi and Saese Tiin.
I was referring to Jedi characters from the films retooled/repainted to look like Sith, but I think either scenario is fine. We're pretty loose on the restrictions with these.
:wink:
:wink:
That turned out great... Pirate versions of characters is a really good idea. His mask could almost double as an underwater breathing device.
:wink:
:wink:
You know what would go great with that pirate Vader? A Chinese tunic Obi-wan! Henceforth since his name sounds Chinese. :lol:
Very nice! He looks very evil... and man, your painting skills have really reached a new level!
I've got an update too, finished these over Thanksgiving.
Boba Fett - Mirrored Reflection (Medieval version), for the current Yakfinities. Imagine if Fett were a real historical or mythological figure. Maybe this is what he'd look like.
head - ROTS Senate Guard
rest - Prince of Persia figure
R2-D2 & C-3PO - Mirrored Reflection (Medieval versions), for the current Yakfinities. Again, if these were real historical or mythological characters.
C-3PO
head - Avatar figure
hands - TAC Han Solo
rest - TVC Peasant Anakin
R2-D2
helmet - CW Embo shield/POTJ FX-7 part
neckwrap - Prince of Persia belt
torso - TVC Darth Sidious
arms - Legacy Jawa
legs - Legacy Zuckuss
feet - TAC Ak Rev
Kala Mly Shundi - For the Rykrof Enloe photonovel series, as well as the current Yakfinities, Mirrored Reflections of him as a Light vs. Dark Jedi. This character has always struggled with which path he should take, so I felt like this was a great time to make a couple of new versions of him.
Light Side
hood - TVC Darth Sidious
head - SAGA Jempa
torso - CW Obi Wan Kenobi
tunic - CW Obi Wan Kenobi
arms - CW Obi Wan Kenobi
hands - CW Obi Wan Kenobi

Great customs, Justin. I especially love the Boba Fett.
One question for you, Is the R2-D2 suppose to be a hat, or is it more of a cyborg. It's hard for me to tell, but it is a cool use of a (Transformer?) TIE fighter cockpit hatch.

Awesome reflection of R2 and C3PO Justin. Im a fan of the peasant anakin figure my self and I have a custom on the table ready for paint with some of those parts.. The R2-D2 hat or dome pops out.. That is one of my favorites color combo.. 
Thanks for the comments on Darth Tiin...

Darth Tiin turned out really nice, you did such a great job on the deco - he doesnt even need a cape, it obscures your awesome paint job. I'd love to see an entire Sith Council!
Chewie, creative customs as always - my favorite though is R2, its like the robot from the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy crossed with R2 and then sent back in time.

Awesome stuff all over... really hope I can get in on one of the "Sith Council" characters.
Chewie, tell us a little bit about the helmet on R2's mirror counterpart? It's a really amazing use of that "hat"... is there a historical inspiration for that kind of helmet? Very cool concept. 3P0 needs a lute or lyre or something, he looks like he'd make a great bard!
