Greggo's Star Wars Customs

[Greggo]

Hey Greggo, why don't you go work for Sideshow so we can get some better paint apps.... I don't buy the human figures because I thought the sculpt weren't that great. Seeing your work I now see there's nothing wrong with the sculpt but it's the paint job that really isn't that great. If I buy a human dollie can I send you the head for a repaint??? (no really) Absolutely oustanding work!!!

Thank you so much! I would love to do some paint apps for sideshow. There sculpts are normally very good indeed. If Sideshow was to contact me then I would be more than happy to help out. Yeah you can send your head or heads no problem at all buddy.

Next up which I'm in the process of finishing right now is Han Solo New Hope again lol. Then Leia New Hope and then Mace Windu not the sideshow version all I will say its a Fantastic likeness.

The Hasbro version from Episode I is great, and very underrated. This is an old pic I took of a repaint I did back in '02 (hope you don't mind me posting it)

I have the Hot Toys Jackson sculpt that I want to make Mace from, but haven't gotten around to it. It seems a little small.

Wow yeah That is a very good sculpt not to mention a beautiful repaint wicked mate. I think the Mace Windu I have here is a mould off a Hot toys one but I could be wrong lol.

Leia continued:

The New Hope Gang all together. You can see that each head has a slight different shade to their skin. I followed reference closely to get the skin tones as spot on as possible.

wow greggo, just really another amazing Leia repaint. As soon as I buy another doll you're getting the head for a repaint, man....again, just awesome !!!

Here's a little teaser what's coming next. We are using a Medicom R2-D2 that I have weathered up to look like a certain swamp planet. Enjoy guys and gals there will be much more to come.

 

[unsung hero]

Man that's great! I wish I could afford to customize a Medicom R2!

My next Star Wars repaint is Bespin Luke Skywalker. Now at first glance what on earth were Sideshow Thinking? But like all of Sideshow works I knew there would be a likeness under there. But once I removed all the paint something was still bugging me big time. Most people think the eyes are to big. But he is very wide eyed in really life and in Empire and Jedi after the accident his eyes look a lot bigger.
My problem was the depth of his forehead. The hair looks to flat so I added more hair. After doing this I believe there is something there, what do you guys think?
