Thanks Ian. I was happy with how they turned out as well.
I don't have a 3D printer yet, either. But there are a few sites that you can buy the pre printed piece. Like Trash Compactor Customs.

I like the old way of making them as well. I've got several more pieces in the works at the moment.

the new custom cantina figures turned out great! I especially like the Tonnika sisters. But yes its one of the main problems with resin printed figures, is that they can be quite brittle. I bought a custom Grogu resin figure, in Mandalorian armour. And one of his fingers snapped off when I was getting it to hold a lightsaber.

Thanks Chris.

They do have an ABS type resin. So it's a bit more flexible like the original arms and legs.

The first reveal of custom figures that will be going to the charity auction & raffle table at the May The North Be With You convention.
General Rieekan, General McQuarrie & Major Bren Derlin

I reworked a Han Hoth torso, arms and legs. Then make nice cast resin versions.
The heads for Rieekan & McQuarrie are 3D printed version that I bought from FunkyMaclunky and modified them with a neck post to fit my torsos.  Then made casts of them in flesh colour.

Thanks Ian. I think they turned out really well.
I have a surprise that is being worked on for all the custom figures that will be on the charity auction table. So stay tuned for more custom goodness.

Thanks Ian. Funky Maclunkey just put out another 6 Imperial officers. So I might make them later in the fall when I have some time.

Awesome new custom figures Clint! Great use of the Han Hoth figure. It must have taken you some time to re sculpt and cast copies in resin. They turned out brilliantly well! The likeness of the 3D printed head sculpts is amazing. good luck with the charity auction and raffle mate.

Thanks Chris.
The re sculpting didn't take too long.  I always find sanding the putty takes the longest.
Mostly because I start with 400 grit sandpaper and work my way thru different grits until I finish with 3000 grit sandpaper.
