This was my first repaint. I just wanted to make a twilek Jedi. When it was all done, I realized it didn't suck as much as I thought it would and maybe I could do this more.  For this I just thought the Genoharadan Assasins look dumb. Such a good mini, but looks lame. I figured I could do better...  This is meant to be Sharad Hett, father of A'sharad Hett (Darth Krayt). Ended up being alot more challenging than I thought. I wanted to use the orginal tuskan as the base because it was bigger than the scouts. This was my first mini where I tried to add more tone and shade in colors.  This is one of my more recent minis. This is my mando for a Saga game I am currently playing in. Darkened the whole mini. Heavily modified guns and a cape. Just fun.  Did this quite awhile ago. I wanted to make General Obi right after I finally watched the cartoons. This was hella cool at the time.  Darth Wyyrlok currently my favorite Sith Lord, which says alot because Kun and Palpy are pimps.  Repainted Force Adept. My buddy commisioned 4 of these and ended up having to make one for myself.  Meant to be a character for Saga. I actually use this in place of Kyle in most games...not intended for that but close enough.  I actually love how this mini turned out. I was just trying to make a cool bothan spy for a buddy for the saga game and this one ended up looking so cool.  Wookie sith apprentice...need I say more?  And here is Darth Maul on Speeder with Lightsaber. Here is the main trick...the end of the elite stormtrooper's rifle...makes a perfect handle for the speeder. Getting the arm to seem natural...was a pain...but it looks great.

I was wanting to do a Darth Wryylock as well but I lack the resources (and talent) to do one effectively. I am just going to think that someone's going to need a few Chagrian Merc. Commanders.

Darth Wyyrlok is my favorite sith lord at this point. Which surprises me because I have always been a fan of Kun. But the idea of multiple generation serving krayt through the years all under the mantle of darth wyyrlok only to finally pwn Darth Andeddu (probably the sith lord I despise the most) just makes so an awesome character. And he is chagrian, which is also quite excellent.

Very good job. When I think customs I think figs because anyone can think up stats. Yours look like originals. I can't even see where the molding of the original figs meet your additions

ERC head, mando QM cape, Mando Marauder body, padawan lightsaber and I think the saber hilt pieces came from a guard droid. Then the whole thing is repainted.

Those are all cool. Any tips for someone who's never modded a mini before? What kind of glue do you use to reconnect parts? Also, what do you use to cut pieces?
