Jedi Swamp Monster IVA.

Well its been a long time since ive posted, I have had some issues in my life atm that have kept my down and out of the game. But im here to share a few little things I managed to work on over my time away.

I would like you all to meet IVA, meaning number 9 in cook islands. IVA is a fanmade custom that i have put together and made a back story for. short but sweet =D

"when master yoda went into self impossed isolation with little to no other choice after the purge he made his way to dagobah where he and all others thought he was alone. But deep in the swaps lived something, a swap being who after days of lurking near Yoda finally made himself aware to the Jedi Master who had senced him all along feeling some force sensitivity in the being.

When Yoda put IVA through some simple tests Yoda was astonished at just how force sensitive he was, and such a mind as to learn fluent basic in just 4 short months. Yoda had never seen or heard of a creature of this nature and begun formally training him in the ways of the force. Yoda gave him robes and a lightsaber of a fallen master from Kashyyk that he carried with him and had never burried his belonging yet. Iva learnt the ways of the force quickly, and as Yoda begun telling him more of the outside world and of what was happening, Iva became increasingly hateful of the sith. His lust to exact revenge upon his "fellow" jedi as he called them was disheartening to Yoda. after years of training yoda dubbed IVA a jedi knight after putting him through many different tests which he passed with great ability.

But 2 years later a group of spacers landed in the swamp and IVA lost his ways and murdered them, Yoda pleaded with him ot to leave but he said it was there time to exact revenge upon the sith. Nor Yoda or any others know the fte of IVA but no stories were ever told of him and so he was forgotten. And his memory became nothing but a shadow in the mind of Yoda over his hundreds of years.

Comments as always are welcome =D

Natoulan Jedi Youngling ETU

Hey guys been a while since i posted but i guess its time for a new one. i made this guy a while ago and just recently got some pictures of him. this is a young Natoulan Male Jedi youngling fanmade. his name is ETU meaning stars in cook island part of my heritage. so here is Etu.


Im really not %100 happy with this paint app and will definately re-visit it soon i just have kinda given customizing up for a while.

My completed entry for the Imperial Shipyards comp.

WIP pics for the Imperial Shipyards mini rig comp.

Now basically this is going to be a thug speeder bike, ive layed down an under coat and started on the paint app, havnt started in on to much detail just some orange which is no where near the neatness it will be, just starting somewhere. =D hope you like.

My Exar Kun featured on front page of imperial shipyards =D.

Rustyscustoms makes a Sith Lord!

How about this younger version of Sith Lord Evar Kun! The accesories on this figure are outstanding. Nice work Rusty.

Young Exar Kun Concept.

"I was the greatest Dark Lord of the Sith. I am Exar Kun."

―Exar Kun, to Kyp Durron

Exar Kun was a Human male Dark Lord of the Sith under the tutelage of Freedon Nadd. Kun displayed an unusual curiosity into forbidden teachings during his time as a Jedi Padawan, so much so that upon completion of his training, he abandoned his Master and set out in pursuit of the knowledge and power of the ancient Sith. His quest led him initially to the planet Onderon and then its jungle moon, Dxun, where he invaded the tomb of a long-deceased Dark Lord of the Sith named Freedon Nadd—and, in doing so, awakened his spirit. Seduced by Nadd with the promise of power through acceptance of the dark side of the Force, Kun allowed himself to become Nadd's apprentice. As Kun rapidly progressed in the sorcerous ways of the Sith, Nadd directed him to Yavin 4, where Kun acquired even greater Sith powers. He then destroyed Nadd's spirit, and set out on his own quest for galactic domination.

Just a little idea i thought of today, thought id put it together and see how it turned out, all in all i think its a pretty cool little concept art of an earlier Dark Exar Kun. let me know what you think. Rusty.

Bothan Jedi Master Vaerua

Now i put this today together after seeing both Darth Daddy's and Mungo Boabab's on imperial shipyards. But when i put mine together i really wanted him to stand out amond the other bothan jedi ive seen who basically follow the same base pattern.

so here is my Bothan Jedi Master Vaerua (meaning spirit in cook island)

More info to come just havnt had much time lately.

Quin Lan Vos as Dark Jedi

Well well well it has been a few days since ive posted, had a massive weekend with a concert in sydney, maiden last week and alot of train rides and getting lost in the city lol.

so its time to post a new custom, and this is a guy ive been wanting to do for a very very long time. im also entering him in the NPKB as he qualifys for the comp.

So without further chatter, here is my favourite character Quin Lan Vos as a Dark Jedi...

(with added paint for dark jedi look after submitted to imperial shipyards NPKB)

so as always let me know what you think.

Easy hair mod on ganner Krieg.

This is just a simple hair mod  but if you want something a little different this one is simple and effective, all i did was remove his pony tail, and replaced it with Padmes hair peice. hope you like.

Featured two more times on imperial shipyards front page =D

once again i have made a custom the moderator Tamer he felt made the cut to be put on the front page. so thanking him.

Rusty is at is again!

We have been very impressed by this Youngster! It is hard to believe he has only been customizing as long as he has. His latest is a Ron Fel Guard. This one sure does have an interesting back story too.

Forum member RustysCustoms reworked an old custom of his to produce this Dark Jedi figure and posted some great pics in his custom figures thread.

Great use of the soft goods on this one, Dan! I love the dark look of this guy.

Ron Fel Royal Gaurd

Alright time for a new post, now this guy is a sort of cross over character. I took a regular senate gaurd and turned it into a Ron Fel gaurd. This is just a fanmade idea, but these guys would have been some of the up most elite and loyal gaurds lesser skill then an imperial knight but just as loyal. so here is my Ron Fel royal gaurd.

Ron Fel Royal Gaurd.

As always let me know what you think =D.
