Like the paint job on the Gotal and the cape really adds something. Yakface looks great...nice composition.

Despite many background extras in the Cantina being granted names and elaborate backstories in the years since filming, the character referred to on the concept art and callsheet of what became A New Hope as "Spaceman #2" remains nameless.

 

[Starchaser]

The soft goods on this guy are really outstanding!

Tawss Khaa was present in both Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina and Docking Bay 94 in Mos Eisley on the fateful day when Luke Skywalker took his first step into a larger world.

Hey, all! I have always wanted that crazy character Tzizvvt in my collection. I got the inspiration from Custom for the Kid by using a Luke Besbin figure for him but what the pics really don't translate well is the paint. I found a really cool Metallic black flash paint at wally world that is more like a metallic bronze for his skin and then I bought a cool color shifting nail polish at walmart too that makes a perfect color for his eyes. Hope y'all enjoy....

Great looking customs everyone!

When her Jerba herd was scattered by a sandstorm, the former slave Swilla Corey moved to Mos Eisley and turned to petty thievery to eek out a living.

 

[Lukę Sprywalker Customs]

Really great looking Swilla! Nice work on the soft goods clothing!

I will in add in a few more images of my custom contributions (still working on a couple) but to start with, I offer images of my cantina with a few of the custom figures and a few old originals too. Here you can see in the background my Tonnika sisters. Like this proud Cantina you can see, an official version will be added to the fold. I will still get a Cantina. But nothing will replace this special creation.

And a second image of the cantina here. Featured here is a one-eyed spacer.

Here is long view of it. It is about 3 feet in length. constructed of wood with two support boards attached beneath it to provide stability. We painted it with a texture paint of white and tan to give it a Tattooine look.

It was constructed in the summer of 2002. Custom figures you see are more from that era and before as opposed to the new figures we have had in the past 22 years. My stepfather and I worked on this. He was the master craftsman. We used PVC pipe to construct the tables and table tops. A long strip of wood for crown molding made the 90 degree chair backs and a round rod made the base of the chairs. More long simple molding for the benches with the arm rests from another inexpensive wood sanded for the decorative angle. Testors paint was used for the blue chairs and silver on the tables couch sides. There is an office behind bar with another chair and table with a door to exit.

Here is the band. Their instruments were left on the wrongs speeder.

One more of Uncle Gundy enjoying the long couch. We have long, three seat couches and couches for two or one hefty person. Maybe not the best picture another one to see.
