Darth Vader CustoMego in the works

[LAST SON OF KRYPTON]

Incredible! At first glance I thought it was a "removable mask".

Thank You Sir."That's a good idea!" I might do a variant Darth Vader with a removable mask just like in the movie,sometime later.

If you want to use leather, use very fine leather, like the kind used in gloves. You might want to check out online sources of kid leather, that's got the right weight for a figure of that size.

I have to admit, I am looking forward to seeing these done.

Thank You.I'll take your advise and check it out,also what i'm looking for is the one with a ribbed texture on the leather just like his costume in the movies.

[LAST SON OF KRYPTON]

He's looking Awesome! so far,cant wait to see him done!

Thank You Sir.

Darth Vader's Lightsaber

A Sith or Jedi is not complete without his Lightsaber.
Here is Darth Vader's lightsaber that I've worked on,I may still do some modifications.I've use clear resin to give the blade a translucent look but somehow the material is a little soft thus making it to bend.

What do you think?

[Trappy Trek Freak]

Thats Awesome

[vulcan2074]

Can't wait to see him done

Darth Vader update-Belt accessory

Hi All,
Just want to post the Belt parts I've sculpted for my Darth Vader upcoming custom figure.
I've thought of using the standard Male Black Belt which shows in the photo which I already trimmed off the existing buckle to give way to the sculpted piece I did.


Last thing remains is the Front Boot Covering which is in process and thinking of using the standard Hero Boots but will do some trimming so I could add the Front Boot Covering to it.
Before I thought of using the Black Leg with boots(as per in the Star Trek figures) but I will not be able to tucked in the pants.
This is the best way I can think of,what do think?

[JediJaida]

I had to wipe the slobber off of my computer monitor first dude; your sculpting is THAT enticing!

I think your plan for the boots is a sound one, so go ahead with it.

I also think that when you're done, people will be clamoring for you to provide them with parts so that they can make their own Darth Vader.

[samurainoir]

Mind blowing! Simply incredible.

Can't wait to see more.

[Meule]

Go with your idea for the boots

[Megospidey]

really fine work all the way around. That is a superb head sculpt!

[Timothy2251]

Your work is magnificent, Last Son! Keep the pics coming!

[LAST SON OF KRYPTON]

Thank You All for the appreciation and the advise for the boots.
I will go for it and make the Shin Guards parts that can be glued on with the Hero Boots,but will make the Knee Cap area a little angled so you could still bend the knees.
Just got this good reference for the Shin Guards that my brother sent me.


For all parts that have a high gloss finish,I'm going to use automotive black base paint but with a gray primer first then use Automotive Lacquer High Gloss for the top coat.
