A little project that I've been working on for a while. Hopefully I can find some time to work on the arms and legs sculpt for this CZ droid.
I found a modern loose beater CZ that I'm using for the head and torso. It will also be a companion for my R4-E1 droid.

Well done on those new droid customs Clint, they look awesome. That's a great idea on how to create a vintage looking CZ droid Cool

by **Commander Clint** Tue May 17, 2022 2:16 pm

Thanks guys. I think the CZ droid will be a great figure.
The legs are very similar to the C-3PO legs, but with a couple of minor changes. But the arms will need a lot of work to get them looking right.

I ordered the 3D printed Imperial Dignitaries Bundle from Trash Compactor customs back in July and the arrived a week or so ago.
I post some pictures when I have them painted.

Those turned out great Clint, look right at home with the emperor, well done mate

by **Commander Clint** Tue Dec 13, 2022 10:21 pm

Thanks Ian. The custom purple that I mixed for a couple of the figures was dulled a bit by the clear coat.
But other than that. I'm happy with how they turned out.

by **Cardnut** Wed Dec 14, 2022 1:44 am

Those look amazing Clint excellent work as always!

by **Commander Clint** Wed Dec 14, 2022 1:46 pm

Thanks Chris. They were really nice to work on. I highly recommend them.
I just had to make sure that I didn't mix up the parts.

by **grinchy** Fri Dec 16, 2022 7:30 pm

those latest customs look the part already Clint, good luck with them

Thanks Ian. They've been sitting & waiting for the right time. What a Face

by **Commander Clint** Thu Dec 29, 2022 2:54 am

Next step. And a good first test of a couple new molds.

Love all the new customs and paint jobs Clint yay

by **Commander Clint** Fri Dec 30, 2022 2:51 pm

Thanks James. The Tarkin & the Band are figures that Kenner should have made back in 1978.

by **chris.75** Fri Dec 30, 2022 7:29 pm

Those turned out great Clint, well done mate. you've gotten really good at creating moulds and casting. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished figures

by **grinchy** Fri Dec 30, 2022 7:46 pm

Nice first shots from your mould Clint, must be hard pouring bubble free at that scale

by **Commander Clint** Sun Jan 01, 2023 12:18 am

Thanks Chris and Ian
I've been trying out different techniques and getting good results.

Testing out some paint colours on some spare parts. So this will be last custom figure for 2022.

That turned out great Clint, well done mate clapping

Its' a really good head sculpt of Tarkin. Really looks like him

by **Commander Clint** Mon Jan 02, 2023 7:25 pm

Thanks Chris. cheers

I didn't like the Tarkin sculpt that came with the board game. So I found a beater figure that had a better head sculpt.

by **grinchy** Mon Jan 02, 2023 7:57 pm

Great final figure mate, love the paintjob, well done

by **Commander Clint** Mon Jan 02, 2023 8:17 pm

Thanks Ian. I'm still debating his uniform colour.
