Chakaman's customs, mods and repaints

[Chakaman]

I saw that Ephant Mon, very nice.

I bought a couple of SSC Pietts and Prajis back when they were released. I also picked up some uniforms and hats from Toy Anxiety a few years ago.

I can never get enough of your "Imperial brass shelf".
It's crazy how I remember seeing them back when & it not seeming not too long ago. I hate missing out on that opportunity to acquire those parts…but still glad to get I was able to being their availability now

Your General Veers is totally awesome. I just noted that it must be a customized figure and not available from Sideshow as is. Is there any thread summarizing the production of this figure???

Thanks Duane. I remember everytime I saw a officer outfit set come up, I bought it even though I didnt really need it at the time. Im glad I did.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Yes its a custom. Its not "really" General Veers, just an AT-AT Commander. I have all my WIP pictures of this guy in this thread somewhere. Im not sure back how many pages. If you have trouble finding them, let me know and I can re-post them. I did the figure last summer I believe.

So far the only actor I can't identify from those sculpts is the first one (on the left) - who is that?

The other three (to me anyway) look like George C. Scott, Gerald McRaney and Ed Harris.

Im not sure who the guy on the left is based after. You nailed the other guys, but I do think the one you said looks like McRaney is a spot on Michael Sheard.

As mentioned in Spud's thread, here is my Endor trooper I have been working on. I really like the Endor guys, but I think the paint apps were nowhere near realistic. The gear is really well made and looks good, it looks even better with a repaint.....

I am a sucker for OT troops. I have enough extra gear to do 4-5 of these guys, but will probably end up with 3 when all is said and done.

I like the choice of pants you used…more of a woodland camo green scheme opposed to the sideshow version.

 

[Spudtrooper]

Dude he looks freaking awesome! How did you go about getting the pants to look so good, dye or paint?

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks Duane.

Thanks man.

I just used a few coats of acrylics. I used three different colors to achieve the camo look I was going for. I will probably do some more work on them when I eventually get back to working on him.

Quick shot of my cantina shelf lit up with all the other lights in my room off.

I need to finish the remaining patrons I am working on. I feel there will be some more scum and villany available in the coming months. I dont want to get too far behind.

 

[generalgrevious]

looks awesome chris some day I hope to have a big collection like yours

 

[Natedog]

Nice Chris! Did you make a couple of those tables, or are they all original?

 

[OutLander]

Awesome figures Chris, really appreciate the time and effort that went into this display! Have you thought about doing something with the side and back walls to give it a Cantina feel?....a picture or some stucco type material on Foam core board with arches and windows?

 

[enaud]

A beautiful hive of scum

 

[j14]

Enaud....you big tease! Love your display Chris. How big is the display in total.

Sent from atop my Dewback

Enaud....you big tease! Love your display Chris. How big is the display in total.

It looks like it's around 4.86116893 × 10[SUP]-17 [/SUP]Parsecs to me.

 

[Chakaman]

Thanks guys.

Nice Chris! Did you make a couple of those tables, or are they all original?

Thanks Nate. Two are SSC and 2 are custom made. I made them out of PVC pipe. I had a friend of mine help me do a lightup feature on them as well.

Thanks man. I actually have all the stuff to make arches etc. I just havent had the time to plan it all out and do it. Someday hopefully.

Yeah, Duane needs to finish up his latest "scum" ASAP.

J, the display is about 5 1/2 ft long.

It looks like it's around 4.86116893 × 10[SUP]-17 [/SUP]Parsecs to me.

What he said....

It really is 66" long to be precise.

I'm back home now from being out of town all last week. Once I get a few things sorted, I'll be back at it….at least that's the plan

So I was off by 5.71673467 × 10[SUP]-18[/SUP] Parsecs - not too bad. (aka 17.64 cm)
