V2
I'm re-doing my customs as I've sold all of my V1's for various reasons. Biggs was one of my first bashes when I joined, and he's gonna be the 1st one I'm doing upon my return.
The nice thing is I've learned a bunch and hopefully that will make them better.
For V2 Biggs, I'm using the same Ignite tunic I used the first time. It was a good find before and I saw no reason to improve it. It's a nice blue and I like the material.
I'm also using the Yavin Luke jacket again. It is not correct of course, as it has no chest pockets or shoulder straps. However I do like the trim (where the zipper would be). The fact that that matches trumps the things that don't. BUT....I have tweaked it more. I have removed this material this time around:
And I have moved the rank badge up:
After painting it white, instead of off white, and moving the rank badge to actually cover the open spot on the Yavin coat, this is what I have now:
I also chose to paint the trim blue instead of the black it was on V1. I believe the blue is more accurate. I also took the liberty of adding the sleeve thing, which takes it one step closer:
The Lando cape was NFG. This cape is from Electronic Hasbro Vader (needed the dome anyway for later). I like the way it lays. It IS way big, so I trimmed it up some:
So this is where V2 is so far:
The hideous brown courderoy pants will be replaced with leather ones. I intended to before, but never got around to it. Hopefully they get here before vacation!!
I'm keeping him on a SS body this time. There isn't enough posability needed to justify a HT upgrade.
More to follow.....
