So, then. It started wi' the simply mod to Jabba - whacking off the Salacious and banging him on a base... nothing that a craft knife and a spot of glue can't do, eh? Anyhoo - that was my first 'custom' that I proudly displayed to the Save11 folks at HaweraCon last November.

I then thought "screw it" - I'm gonna hack off my two completely unused Human Engineers to make the Tonnika Sisters. My daughter had some pink paint (for some craft thingee) and I thought that it'd do. It'd be fun and there was no reason not to. While I was painting the pink of the two, my daughter asked what I was doing and then could she do one too. I thought again 'why not' and she painted the purple of the two (along wi' yellow hair and pink boots)! Is she the youngest SWM custom maker at age 6? Anyhoo - that was a total laugh and, for a hammed up job, it looked alright!

Then, the custom bug bit me while I was first reading the stats for Darth Maladi. There was no RM mentioned and it got me thinking - what does she look like and who's the closest fit. The closest hairstyle I could think of was the Human Force Adept and I thought wi' a touch o' paint and a lightsaber (ripped off a Reborn), she might come up alright. So, last Friday night I, complete with actual enamel paints and a thin brush, I finally entered the true world of customising!

Chase me, New Zealand, chase me.

Very nice!And your daughter has me beat! I only started when I was 12! Thats how it all starts, then you end up with litterally a hundred customs with only a few of them actually minis LOL with stats. Now im waiting on the V-set team to come out with all the Sith Lords from Legacy Era, all 10 of the munnalist 10 and the rest of the jedi council so I can put all thoes minis to good use. And do your self a favor, buy some green stuff now, its a customizers best friend. Nice job and keep 'em up! Always loving to see what people come up with.
