This week's custom is a Disney Toybox Style Indiana Jones by Hemble Creations

"Recipe.

Indy - is from the Disney Toybox Millennium Falcon set, I added a pic at the end of a before shot of him. I removed the belt, holster and hair and added hair using milliput and then painted the hair and facial hair using Vallejo Paints.

The jacket and pants were originally for two x 1:12 Indiana Jones figures which I had two sets made and decided to use the second set for this figure. The jacket/pants were made by a mate overseas and here is his Instagram page https://www.instagram.com/ageoftoys/.

The fedora is from the Disney's first 7" Indiana Jones figure and the whip, holster, grail, idol, bag and pistol are from the Figma Indiana Jones figure.

The belt, bag strap and whip holder were made using pleather and the whip holder has two small magnets so that the whip can be removed.

Base - is a action figure stand I have had for years and the floor and wall are stands from Figma's Professor Layton figure, the dirt is a mix of sand and spakfilla. The vines and ferns are from the local craft store and the small shrubs are from the local hobby shop."

Neat! Here’s hoping Disney sees it and takes note, there is a market for Indy stuff!

[Satam]

Yeah, I really hope they put out a Toybox Indy.

This week's custom is a Aratech C-PH Patrol Speeder Bike (Solo) by PsyFoolRulez Customz

"Here are some completed (for now as I might still add on more fine details later on) photos of the scratchbuilt Patrol Speeder....An impromptu project that started from a comment on my Patrol Trooper post (wink wink ) and I started on the very day itself......Overall, I took about 10 days to complete this build and very happy how it turned out....Now I can start taking fun photos with it....issuing fines to other speeders for traffic violations...."

This week's custom is a Maz Kanata Speeder by PsyfoolRulez Customz
"My washing machine went kaput a few month's back due to a faulty motherboard....The repair guy took out the motherboard to try and repair it but to no avail....RIP washing machine......He passed me back the faulty motherboard which is inside a white plastic casing, I stared at it for a moment and immediately saw a Hovertank!.........Since I've been building speeders for 6" figures recently, thought it would be interesting to convert this into a speeder instead of a Hovertank as it is too small for 6" figures....It already has the perfect shape and will just need a few greebly add-ons to change it into a Star Wars speeder.....The speeder will be quite small and thought it would be better suited for a smaller figure to ride in it....Maz Kanata seems like the right candidate!....I removed the motherboard and have a perfect empty plastic shell....Tried sitting her in (I didn't even have to cut a hole as there is already one) and looks just about right for her....Not sure how this will turn out, but let's see in about a week's time....

...

Started on the Maz Mobile aka "Mother" (due to its origin as a motherboard!)....Started off by cutting all the protruding clips and cut out a bigger seating area for Maz....then I proceeded to paste some 1mm PVC board to look like panels and also lined the interior of the cockpit....The PVC board also makes painting easier as the plastic is the type that doesnt really bond to paint well....Glued on a few Gundam/ random greeblies and placed 'crates/boxes' salvaged from the motherboard itself....The mini quad cannon is obviously from the Falcon....a spare DeAgostini Quad Cannon....After priming, I gave it a dark green paintjob (balance paint) which matches Maz's clothing....no weathering done yet....Still much more to do.....

...

Decided to have the Quad Cannon manned by a gunner and for now I'm using a 3.75" Quiggold peg-warmer figure....I'm heading towards a Jeep looking theme, especially with the green color scheme and mounted gun.....Kinda like the look and concept....I'll have to repaint/ mod Quiggold so he doesn't look too much like errr Quiggold, though I don't think people really knows who he is anyway.........I also did the padded seat with sound absorbing pads...works great and thanx to @d1dyr0m4n33 for giving me the idea! ......Time to weather and detail paint this!

...

The speeder doesn't look quite right without any form of propulsion device, how does it move?....So I went to the dollar store to look for some 'Speeder thrusters'....lol.....Found some water hose connectors which looked the part and gave them a try.....So far, I have painted them in matt black/ chrome and attached them to the speeder.....will weather them up and detail with thin wires and cables....

...


Rusting in progress....Nothing fancy, just rust (Tamiya Weathering Master) applied with a cotton bud.....Try to spot/ identify the greeblies I used.......I will need to add some details under those front vents...looks too empty....

...

This speeder continue to evolve daily....I still see the motherboard casing shape and tried something to break up the shape further....Added a 'rack' to the front of the speeder for Maz to carry her supplies back to her Castle Cantina....Running a cantina on Takodana will definitely need lots of supply runs right?....The rack was actually a railing accessory from a Tech Deck set if you can recognize it....but to make sure it is not recognizable, I used Rey's cargo net to go over the rack to hold the cargo/ supplies in place.....I think this works and goes with Maz pretty well....you will also see some other subtle changes/additions throughout the build process...."

This week's custom is a Black Series 6" Incenerator Trooper by PsyfoolRulez Customz

"Done the Incinerator Trooper custom some time back using a Black Series Sandtrooper....When the character appeared in Episode 8 of The Mandalorian, I had to make the changes to my figure to look more screen accurate.....Firstly, my figure didn't have any backpack on.....someone gave the idea to use the First Order Flametrooper backpack....but instead of just attaching it as how it is supposed to, I rotated the backpack and reattached the fuel hose to the base to change up the look a little....attached a new peg so it can be slotted into the existing hole for the Sandtrooper backpack....the other end of the fuel hose is then connected to the custom flamethrower, which also got some update, the double fuel nozzle....Another thing I did was to re-create the harness for the backpack....I used some matt black vinyl decals, folded in two and cut out strips as the harness straps........The ammo pouch was also removed....."

This week's custom is the Galaxy's Edge Soda Droids by PsyFoolRulez Customz

"Running out of R5 movie droids to build, so I thought why not build this Coca-Cola R5 which sells Coca-Cola drinks at Galaxy's Edge? I haven't been there yet but I believe there are a couple variants of this droid scattered around Black Spire Outpost....there is another version with red legs...While I'm at it, I will also be making the Diet Coke R2 droid.....and if I really get carried away, might just scratchbuild the entire Coke speeder..."

"Done with the Coke droids....As you can see, I have 3 heads and 2 bodies as I realised there are at least, two versions of the R5 Coke droid...so instead of building 3 complete droids (2 of which have identical color schemes), I came up with this....I have the option of swapping the heads around for different shots....Now, to complete the set and build the Sprite R2 droid!..."

"Completed Sprite R2 with seamless dome...Now the set is complete!....Should I get started on the speeder?

This week's custom is "Look Sir, Droids! (28mm) by Hemble Creations

"Recipe.

Troopers - are from Fantasy Flight Games SW Legion Trooper expansion and I modified the trooper holding the droid part by cutting his hand and rotating it and the droid part is just a piece of thin electrical cable.

The trooper looking into the escape pod has had his left hand removed and the hand armour cut and thinned down and added to a Airfix 1:48 scale hand.

The escape pod is also from Fantasy Flight Games and was a trade with a member in the Star Wars Legion North Queensland FB group.

Base - is high density foam cut to shape and then a hole was done to allow the pod to sit lower and the I used a mix of spakfilla, sand and Vallejo's Iraqui Sand and applied it to the base. The foot prints and R2's tracks were done using a thin wet brush."

This week's custom is a Hero Cross Sandtrooper by Hemble Creations
 

"Hi All,
I have always wanted a Hero Cross Sandtrooper but they have been way to pricey so when I got a chance to buy a cheap Hero Cross Stormtrooper I picked him up and redid him as a Snadtrooper.

Recipe.
Figure - as mentioned he is a Hero Cross Stormtrooper and I removed the thermal detonator and then added the pauldron and back pack from a BS Sandtrooper. I like the back pack being larger then it should as to me it keeps in theme of the characters cartoony appearance, I then gave him a wash of GW Agrax Earthshade and then used pastel chalks to add the dust.

 

Base - as with the figure I wanted to look a little cartoony so I made the walls larger and door smaller and I made the walls using foam board and the greeblies on the wall and the door comms are from my parts box, the door is made using foam board and plastic card and the door frame is plastic tiles.
The texture on the walls was done using watered down down spakfilla and then I painted and weathered it using Vallejo paints. The sand was done by laying watered down spakfilla and then sprinkling sand over the top and then once dry I painted it.
The tarp is a dried out baby wipe and the poles are wooden dowels and the under the tarp is string to hold the pole and tarp up. The containers are old asthma bottle and some odd stands I had in the spare box and I kept these odd sizes again to keep with the cartoony theme.

This week's custom is a Modified Tread Speeder by PsyfoolRulez Customz

"Custom Tread Speeder....The original tread speeder appeared in The Return of Skywalker and Hasbro made a toy out of it for 4" figures....From the beginning, I dig the look of the tread speeder eventhough it doesn't make much sense to have tracks in a universe where everything can fly!....But the design still intrigued me so when I found the toy on sale, I grabbed one and started modding it.....The idea was to make it fit a 6" figure so first I had to modify it so that the figure, in this case a 6" Cassian Andor figure with a Marvel head swap, can sit properly on the speeder....New control handles needed to be made so that the figure holds the handle at a higher level and foot rests needed to be relocated forward......A backrest was also made as the figure sat in a leaned back posture....Once this has been sorted out, I started to add greeblies amd painted the speeder in base white to depict a snow environment vehicle.....Then I went to town weathering the speeder with Vallejo acrylics, Tamiya weathering master and washes....followed with a few coats of Mr Hobby matt to seal everything in....Happy how the speeder turned out....Now to work on the rider!

"This figure is a SW Legion custom miniature which shows the scale it was enlarged to next to a SW Legion Sandtrooper and Vader is made by SkullforgeStudios https://gumroad.com/skullforgestudios and I asked GarfiesGames https://www.ebay.com.au/str/garfiesgames who distribute the figures here in Australia to size him up to around 4" which roughly is 1:18 scale.

I painted and weathered him using Vallejo Paints and Pastel chalks and the base is from Mattel Jurassic Park Amber collection and was also painted and weathered."

This week's custom is a 6" Boba Fett Resin Statue by Hemble Creations

"Recipe - the figure and base were printed in resin from a mate and I painted and weathered it using Vallejo Paints and Pastel chalks. the flames were done using Woodland Scenics Water Effects and spreading over a piece of non stick cooking paper and once dry I peeled it off and painted the smooth side with red, yellow and orange and then wrapped it around the existing flames which were just vertical lines.

The smoke was done using cotton balls and then ripping them apart and applying them to the base and then I used Rust-oluem Matt Black and Light Grey to make the smoke colours."
