      Sculpts Completed

      Hi All,
      Finally I have finished sculpting the Shin Guard.
      As Darth Vader would say.. "THE CIRCLE IS NOW COMPLETE".
      In my case all sculpted parts are now completed and I could start to make a mould and cast them.
      Here is the photo of the sculpt.

      Thanks for the advise to all who responded for me to use the standard Hero Boots.
      Am still looking for the right kind of leather with the ribbed texture for the clothing and the gauntlet.
      I'm here to fight for truth, and justice, and the American way.

          That custom is going to be legendary when it's completed. Love the in progress pics so far!
          "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                  UPDATED Darth Vader painted parts

                  Hi All,
                  Had been very busy at work and still am.
                  I just want to update my Darth Vader in the works with the painted parts.
                  My compressor broke down and had it fixed just a couple of days ago.
                  Well here they are:
                  1) Darth Vader head painted.
                  Added a light red tint on the eyes to capture the likeness on the mask used in the SW movies.


                  2)Shoulder/Chest armor


                  3)Belt Box/Buckle/Cod Piece


                  4)Shin Plate Armor on boots


                  5)Lightsaber/Hilt



                  Friends of mine are helping me source the right lined textured leather for the outfit and hope they'll find one.
                  So my next post will be on the Finished Customs .

                  P.S.- I'm sculpting an alternate Darth Vader Head without the helmet,just like in "Return of the Jedi"

                      Pure-tee-awesome. You could so sell casts of some of those pieces.

                              I can't wait to see the figure assembled. The parts all look fantastic.

                                New UPDATE-Darth Vader Unmasked!

                                Hi All,
                                Since I still don't have the textured leather I'm looking for ,I have add a new sculpt for a extra head of a Darth Vader Unmasked.
                                As I've told in my last post in this thread.
                                Here are the pics:
                                1) New head sculpt


                                2) A new sculpt/painted of the lightsaber with better clear cast on the blade


                                Thank You for your comments and my next post will be when I'm done painting the new head and hopefully next to the Finished Custom thread.
                                I'm here to fight for truth, and justice, and the American way.
