Hey gang, thanks for the vote of confidence. I hope this turns out.
Galactiboy, I'm going to glue the hair right to the body. I made a tight bodysuit last time from a brown t-shirt and was planning to glue the hair to it, but never got around to it. I think gluing right to the body is the way to go. That way I can keep the lanky wookiee build. I find the fun-fur body on my Hasbro figure is too chunky and thick.
For the body I was going to use an old Ultimate Soldier body. I bought 4 figure for $5 each at ToysRus a few years ago. I'm not sure if extending the limbs will be enough to base a 1:6 Wookiee. I did that on the first go round and it looked OK, but the torso was kind of short.
Any of you guys know where I can find the DCD Sinestro body Galactiboy was talking about (for a good price)? I looked a month ago and came up empty. Maybe I should just use what I have? Any advice is welcomed.
BTW is there anyone out there who can confirm that approx. 15" is a good height for the figure? Check out the photos in my first post.
Advice or constructive comments are always welcomed.
