Yakfinities #86 - The Coruscant Underworld
- Thread starter YAK_Chewie
- Start date
Once a xenoarchealogist looking for ancient truths in ruins of the Outer Rim, Carai Senweyder now looks in modern ruins in the Coruscant underworld for her own survival in an uncertain future.
When people think of the Coruscant underworld, they most often think of the illegal organizations, gangs and criminals who inhabit the under levels of Coruscant. Sometimes they may also think of the poor or less fortunate residents and workers in these recesses. But there is another elements of the Coruscant underworld; the frightening creatures and monsters that inhabit the deeper zones of the planet - Cthon, Coruscani ogres, corridor ghouls and the like. In between these are the virutally unknown lowest level "civilization", the Genouli - a semi-nomadic, relatively primitive, people divided into competing tribes and hostile to all "outsiders". The Genouli inhabit the levels of Coruscant near the ground and are fierce and brutal. Yanraasu is a celebrated scout amongst his own tribe, known for his persistence in the hunt and his keen powers of observation.

As a waste technician, Qujer Deeze is tasked with the unenviable job of travelling to the Coruscant Underlevels to maintain the aging infrastructure from conduit worms and duracrete slugs.
Dandrey Ronclaves - originally hailing from Alderaan, Dandrey comes from a less well-to-do family and after a manufacturing accident left him with a droid arm, he just lost faith in the Republic. Now he works as a cargo loader in Coruscant and is also paid as an Imperial informant.
And - ironically in a similar vein to mousedroidhoojib - Yebist, a waste technician in the underbelly of Coruscant. He also functions as a pawnbroker, salvager and reseller of lost items (at an extra cost of course) to those high class citizens that occassionally lose things down the 'fresher.
Coruscant riot guard.

Droid Shack-Located near a reclamation center in Sector #616 is a little business known as the Droid Shack. Housed in an abandoned shipping container, the Droid Shack repairs, refurbishes, and sells droids and Droid parts. The Shack is owned and operated by the Bith technician Yolo G'af.
The ladies are part of the House of Vexis, an assassin's guild operating on the lower levels for Coruscant. The members of the House of Vexis are known for drawing in their prey with sexuality and striking when their target is most vulnerable.
From left to right:
Lulana - Coruscant Assassin
Lulana joined the House of Vexis after a childhood struggling on the lower levels of Coruscant. Lulana specializes in the Kyokestsu Shoge, a spinning blade at the end of a long rope. She can decapitate a victim in a single blow. She is often hired when the assassination needs to send a message.
Petla - Droid Assassin
Petla was a companion droid in the service of a outer rim warlord who fell into debt with the House. Petla was reprogrammed as Lady of the House and Assassin. Her droid strength and reflexes make her a deadly addition to the house.
Jex Snowmane - Rodian Assassin
Jex came to Coruscant originally as a slave to a Tandoshan nobleman. She bided her time and eventually slit the rich man's throat. She found her way to the House of Vexis where she has become a valuable asset.
Sakra Boldoni - Neomorph Gang Leader
Sakra Boldoni ran his territory with a steel fist. He and his gang had fought the Chagrians tooth and nail, finally driving them from this section of the 534th floor. They had expanded the territory, fighting the Sansheen, The Black Spine, Ek’rubaat and the Golden Gundarks. And in spite of bloody losses, the Boldoni Gang came out on top.

Love this category of customs. I will attempt to add mine here as well. For this challenge I utilized a lot of Boss Fight figures and a lot of work with soft good materials and accessories not always used with Star Wars customs.
The Underworld of the Galactic Capitol is home to many beings including some that are just looking to enjoy the night life in the seedier part of the city.
Below are two inspired party goers. The one on the left in silver is a representation of one of the Outlander patrons from Attack of the Clones.
A Boss Fight Sunny Wheat blank figure with Amazonian silver skirt and shoes is completed with the mesh top of 1980s short lived 3.75 action figure line for girls: Glamorous Gals.
The figure on the right is inspired by a shapeshifting bad guy from the Fifth Element. She is also a Boss Fight Figure. Torso is from a boxer from the Zombie apocalypse line while the legs are from another Zombie Lab figure that Boss Fight either purchased the molds or had made them originally.
The coat just a piece of white shag fluff from a cat toy and a Boss Fight neck accessory painted like red feathers--again to match the Fifth Element villain.

Up next are three others whose fortunes if not their lives are made in the Coruscant Underworld. The real movers and shakers in the underbelly of the galaxy don't get their hands dirty--except when counting credits.
Meet Cyrus Uri, a former senator who resigned his post amid scandals of accepting kickbacks for supporting certain vendors of others in the pursuit of Imperial military contracts. Out office, he has various businesses now some legal and others not so much that he uses to squeeze the credits out of the poorest and weakest Coruscant citizens.
He is accompanied by his droid valet, GV-9, who also plays the role of Sabaac dealer in the most serious of games of chance featuring other Coruscant more refined criminal element. Also with Uri is the Quira, the Corellian public face of the Crimson Dawn crime syndicate.
GV--is a TC 14 Disney build a droidwith just a little bit of metallic teal highlights to match the head of the Marvel Epic Vulture. Vulture really does a great job looking like a robot head in this version or a mean Imperial when it is his face.
Quira-Is an Ahsoka vintage body, with Padme arms from Attack of the Clones. The beautiful head sculpt is from a Game of Thrones custom I commissioned to be painted. Some of the artwork on face painting is flawless. Definitely handle with care.
Cyrus Uri is the star of this et of pictures. He is one of the "sharks" from the reality tv show. The figure were cheap at Entertainment Earth so I go them. But what do you do with them? Well, more soft good work. I am very inspired by MouseDroid Hoojib's tailoring work. But I am more of a mix and matcher.
So...Uri (and Uri is a nod to the Battlestar Galactica character Sire Uri played by Ray Milland) is the one of the shark guys where two soft good cloaks. The first cloak is from a McDonalds Hunchback of Notre Dame villain with a pinstriped elbow patch for a coat. His neck tie is from Chicken Fried Toys cowboy and the silver belt buckle is from another Kenner Glamour Girls figure. I intended the elbow patch to be more of a poncho but its length got cut and so I have it draping over his shoulders and then down the front. The teal ribbon ties in the back
The business suit from space is inspired by the Zorg villain from Fifth Element. I have three more pinstripe bad guys to upload today or tomorrow. The worst of the underworld in Star Wars and the real world are guys that wear suits and make decisions that steal and hurt people they never see or touch.
White collar crime is violent crime. Smiling villains on top of the world are just as menacing if not more so than brutes lurking in the shadows.
More to come.

Up next is another picture of the first two an additional figure and one that I am extremely proud to share. This is figure on the left is inspired by several recent SYFY characters... It is a nod to Zeltrons from the Star Wars comics, Guardians of the Galaxy and the Blade Runner Sequel.
This figure is the personal secretary of Cyrus Uri.
The head was painted by a wonderful artist that goes by the handle of Spartan 118. He does great work and specialty painted his cast of the Ana De Armas head pink to match the Boss Fight pink blank figure and the acress' blade runner persona. His work on the face painting and the quality of his craftsmanship I rely on for human custom figures I make. It is the outfit that is the great thing for me. The Rose Gold dress was made from Walgreen Christmas discount gift set. A small carrying case for nail clippers, tweezers etc.
They came in Rose Gold, metallic blue, and metallic green. the skirt is from the tassel keychain part that was unwrapped, cut and glued. The part of the dress that covers the torso was peeled off of the inside of the carrying case. Once off, it kinda looked like a dress. I thought about how to get the dress as the torso part is held in place by the skirt section. Thank you superglue. And then I painted the shoes a sort of rose gold color.

Last for today are couple more party goers enjoying the Coruscant nightlife. One of them, however, is an operative for Black Sun.
The one on left is an over version inspired by the Fifth Element shapeshifters. Same recipe as the first one using a Boss Fight zombie fighter torso and head with legs from a zombie lab figure. The skirt is another Amazonian accessory by Boss Fight; the sheath for the sword I use a holster as she is carrying a blaster.
He coat is from a McDonalds Barbie Happy Meal toy. The soft goods from late 1990s/early 2000s Happy Meals are excellent for Star Wars. And the barbie head easily pop off leaving a good neck post for any heads--if the body is what you wish to use.
The second figure is another Outlander clubber using the yellow boss fight blank, Umbrella academy head and hands with a dark/coffee or tree bark legs and transparent yellow skirt from a McDonalds Barbie figure. The skirt reduces movement but great for a diorama.
