Wonderful custom figures! I'm curious: do you begin with stock figures, then customize, or do you fashion your own new figures with stock figures as references...? The poses are wonderful (the Twi'lek bodyguard in particular is great!), very dynamic and filled with energy. How big are these (inches or cm, whichever you normally use)? They appear very small--which makes me respect your dedication and care even more! Great stuff!

I just use the extra minis I get from booster packs and what other individual ones available from shops. From there, I repaint and add/remove certain features. For the most part I keep them in the same pose they originally have. The usual height for these minis is about an inch and a half, give or take a few centimeters.

An inch and a half ! shock ... that would drive me insane tongue
It's awesome what you do ^___^ I have no patience to do something so fiddly. I'm so glad you did a Rogue, I love her love It must be so fun to play with all these *is envious*

Perhaps you could do a Wolverine ? batting

Wolverine? I never did one of him before, but I could give it a shot. happy Finding a suitable mini shouldn’t be a problem in this case. Just got to make sure I have the type or can get one.

Well I've found a suitable figurine to recreate as Wolverine, but the problem is that I don't have it. Though I know a place that has at least one type of that particular mini, it will take a while to get it as the shop is on the other side of the province.

But in the meantime, here's some more remade Star Wars and Marvel minis:

Star Wars:

Darth Wyyrlok III

Tili Qua of Legacy’s Jedi Council

Treetower, the Ugnaught Jedi from the Clone Wars Adventures series

A repainted Trandoshan Mercenary that I named Crossk.

Marvel:

Kitty Pryde (Shadowcat)

Apollyon from the X-Men story Here Comes Tomorrow

Dummy, from the X-Men’s special class

Gauntlet of the Dark Riders

Once more I have trouble to put a favourite here, because they are all well done. They also have a certain power & drive that I admire.

Thank you very much, Azure. There’s still no word on the mini that I’m hoping to get so I could redo it into Wolverine. I can keep trying to get ahold of it, but I’ll also look if there's one on hand that I can use instead. Anyway, here’s a few remade minis of mine that I recently showed at the EUC.

Azlyn Rae

Deliah Blue (this one was made from a Dungeons & Dragons mini)

And with one of the two spare Jedi Starfighters that I have, I altered it to resemble the Yuuzhan Vong starfighter, the Yorik-Et, better known as the Coralskipper.

Coralskipper (front, back and sides)

Coralskipper (top and bottom)

Here’s what I did to the other one:

Plo Koon’s Starfighter (front, back and sides)

Plo Koon’s Starfighter (top and bottom)

Your Deliah Blue is delicous... for a figure that was once from DUNGEONS & DRAGONS.

*always has to smile when she finds her husbands old childhood games with maps from that very game*

Oh, very nice! The ships look great, but it's Delilah that takes it! She has such a strong fan base, I could see something like this being VERY popular! I find it so cool that you're "recycling" old figures from other sources to make some of these--what a great idea! Keep it going!

Cool! Lowbacca!! We see so little of him in fan or pro-art (I'm as guilty as anyone there...), so this is wonderful! Love the pose and the colors--great job with him! I, too, like that Sith--very threatening-looking, particularly with that mask--great work with his costuming there, too! The Black Queen and Madri priest are great, as well--nice character "descriptions" there, with a lot of mystery about them! Great work on all of these!
