He's not as ugly as the original Grand Slam, but I agree it's a good match for the character :D
 
Re: GalactiCustoms- Buffy☢Bishop☢The Dude☢BB Jesse☢TWD Grimes☢Leia☢Belloq/Grand Slam

Yeah, a true 1/6 OG Grand Slam would be pretty fugly :lol

So I'm removing the necks off of two Sideshow sculpts and damned if I'd forgotten what a pain in the *** that is. The material just doesn't want to come apart and drilling a deep and wide enough hole for a neck plug is slow going :lol
 
Re: GalactiCustoms- Bishop☢The Dude☢BB Jesse☢TWD Grimes☢Leia☢Grand Slam☢Han Solos WIP

Got started on what for me is a v3 of the ANH Han Solo and one for jmc1. Dremmeled off the necks and started repainting them this evening... should have them wrapped up tomorrow if all goes well.

Re: GalactiCustoms- Bishop☢The Dude☢BB Jesse☢TWD Grimes☢Leia☢Grand Slam☢Han Solos WIP

Looking damn fine, J! Each paint app is looking better than the last. :clap
 
Re: GalactiCustoms- Bishop☢The Dude☢BB Jesse☢TWD Grimes☢Leia☢Grand Slam☢Han Solos WIP

Thanks King... I'm hoping once I'm done with my Han it will be the last time I paint this sculpt for myself. Although I do have one more customer planning to send me one :lol

And for the record I still think this is the best ANH Han sculpt. The expression could be a little more cocky, but in terms of a young Harrison Ford I think it's spot on.
 
Re: GalactiCustoms- Bishop☢The Dude☢BB Jesse☢TWD Grimes☢Leia☢Grand Slam☢Han Solos WIP

The custom Han I have is similar--neck removed and repainted--and I think it works really well.
 
Re: GalactiCustoms- Bishop☢The Dude☢BB Jesse☢TWD Grimes☢Leia☢Grand Slam☢Han Solos WIP

Yeah, once you get away from a Buck body the outfit looks better and the sculpt can really shine.

I should've kept all my Sideshow SW figures and had you reprint them. :gah:
 
Re: GalactiCustoms- Bishop☢The Dude☢BB Jesse☢TWD Grimes☢Leia☢Grand Slam☢Solos☢Ash v2

Got the Hans mostly done... just need to clean them up a bit and seal the paint jobs. Also, got a bit more progress done on my v2 of the AOD Ash from Caine.

KD is right - better with each sculpt it seems.

Thanks Fiend :duff

They do... now if only we could get a 1/6 Rancor we'd have something else for her to ride. Although we do have one of the TaunTaun stick horses; so that will do for now :lol

My oldest was Batgirl for Halloween last year, and Supergirl the year before :lol

Awesome, I guess this year she wants to be a caterpillar :huh :lol
 
Re: GalactiCustoms- Bishop☢The Dude☢BB Jesse☢TWD Grimes☢Leia☢Grand Slam☢Solos☢Ash v2

Pretty much finished with the Hans and Ash today. I'll give them a once over tomorrow and snap some more shots. Also, got started on a Rick Grimes hat and set of badges... should have those mostly done by tomorrow as well.
