Thanks!
I find making Jawas just like eating peanuts. I can't stop at one.
The Jawas look less hairy in person but I will get rid of some of the excess hair.

One of the drawbacks of Model Magic is the drying time. While each Jawa was made in under an hour, that hour was spread out over a week. But on the plus side, it was easy to work on several at the same time. They also come in big packages so I really have no choice but to make a lot of figures!! I'm making 3 more sitting ones as seen in Mos Eisley.

I love Storytelling so it is always fun to make backstories. I like them to have a sense of humor. I put funny things in my dioramas too. The Jawa party has a terminator, several droids from other franchises and the lid to the Arc of the Covenant (you just know if the Jawas had found it they would just use it to store junk).

I think I am better at making diorama than figures. I love adding all the details. I think what real items belong (table has bowls and plates with food) and also add what shouldn't (food table has a wrench because you know a Jawa would leave one there) and what would be funny (C-P0's cereal box/ Alien Egg).

I forgot to mention that the Jawa in the purple robe was a Shaman.

Edit: Oh, the JAWA Assassin droids are possibly my earliest customs. I made them as a child so I would have more than one Jawa. They were just Jawas back then.

Blown away by all the great entries, guys.

One thing to keep in mind please, is we do hope customs submitted are "new" customs for this, as prizes are only supposed to be given for customizers who created a new custom of some sort (and remember, winners are randomly selected).

Keep up the great work everyone, hope to see a few more entries before the year wraps up!

:wink:

I really liked Teedo's Luggabeast dressed in the junk armor, so I armored up a Ronto!

My scavenger Raneno Silad and his Jawa sidekick met first met when each was pillaging a battlefield for the weapons of dead soldiers. They are now known to appear on their sturdy Ronto, shortly after any major battle, scooping up working weapons from the dead and selling them to anyone in need of a trusty blaster.

Roodown is absolutely amazing! Great character that you've translated brilliantly. Nice work!

I still haven't finished the duo that I started on day one for this challenge. Customizing time is just nonexistent this month (when I finally got some time, our basement flooded including my Star Wars room... A lot of boxed stuff ruined... It has been a fun month.) Really hoping that I finish them in time.
