Jedi Brothers Tayleth & Izeakial

These to guys are customs i made for the recent Imperial ship yards comp. They are also going to be the focus of my next story, so stay tuned and watch out for it =D

Tayleth: Tayleth is the older brother, strong in the force he is passive and strong minded, often opting to use his words before his saber.






Next is Izeakial, Izeakial is the headstrong younger brother, very skilled with a saber he is among the top of those near his age but often resorts to brandishing his weapon before trying to calm the situation




There will be much more info and a stroy coming soon :D

Bionic Jedi and his Droid Rollie

Thousand of years ago, in the 7th battle Ruusan, a thought bomb was used by the forces of the sith in a bid to finish off the forces of the Army Of Light. Many republic forces and Jedi fell at the siths hands.
As the battle cleared and the debree settled the cold bodies of the war lay still, but not all. 2 days later a group of smugglers landed on the battle site and began to salvage what they could, making there way through the rubble they found a Jedi, severely deformed and injured, but alive. They couldn’t tell his species as the damage was to severe so they took him to there ship and had there medical droid, an out of date model work on the Jedi and use parts from there scrap piles to rebuild him.
 
His eye had been replaced by a bionic eye, his right arm from the forearm down replaced, his left hand, his spine also replaced. A modified bacta pack was placed on his back to sustain his serious injuries. He also had his whole left leg replaced and his knee joint on his right. Due to unavailable parts and scarcity of proper medical staff they were forced to use anything they could.
2 days later he returned to consciousness and had lost his memory, his name and heritage was lost in limbo. Until one day listening in on some smugglers conversation he heard them say he’d make a great Merc, meaning mercenary but the JedI misunderstood and thought they were saying his name, so he adopted the name Merc as his own.
The smugglers tried to make him work for them, as he still had a force connection and was still able to use his lightsaber with some amount of skill, but he managed to escape in the outer rim and began his journey. He travelled in search of answers of his life and his identity, along the way collecting spare parts for himself when he needed them, but loneliness struck in and he decided to build a companion. Many spare parts later he had constructed an unlikely friend who he named rollie. Together they would travel the outrim in search of answers, many stories emerged of a robotic man in the outer rim but over thousands and thousands of years many dismissed these as just stories. Though it became apparent that Merc was unable to die due to his body being mostly droid he was able to sustain life changing parts as they decomposed on his body.
But as the years went by, Merc slowly became nothing more then a droid, coming to be known in the stoires that circled the galaxy simply as “the Forgotten One”. What happened to Merc no one knows, many rumours say he found what he was looking for, many say he is now just a droid working for spacers, but some, some believe Merc still travels the outer rim, searching for the answers to his life with his friend rollie wandering the outerim in a bid to gain his sanity and became complete.

Army Of Light Jedi Master Natoola Hope (fanmade)

"An Army of Light to face the Brotherhood of Darkness."

―Kaan

During the New Sith Wars, the Army of Light was the name given to the military force that Lord Hoth led against the Sith Lord Kaan and his Brotherhood of Darkness. The army consisted of both Jedi and regular troops serving the Republic.

The Army of Light was an ad-hoc military forced hastily assembled and provisioned to combat the sudden change of fortunes of the Brotherhood at a time the Republic had thought the Sith defeated. As the war ground on, Hoth's forces grew even thinner, and he was forced to recruit Force-sensitive children to bolster his forces. He was reluctant to do so but his aide, Pernicar, advised him that if he didn't send the children against Kaan, Kaan would send them against the Jedi.

The Army of Light was greatly weakened by its clashes with the Sith Brotherhood on Ruusan, and by the time of the seventh Battle of Ruusan, they were merely the bedraggled remnants of the army they once were (the youth Tomcat labeled them the "Army of Mud").
One unit of the Army of Light was the Third Legion of Light, commanded by Jedi General New'arforrth. The army was severely weakened by a thought bomb used by Kaan during the seventh battle of Ruusan.

Natoola Hope was one of the jedi killed by the thought bomb in the seventh battle of Ruusan. But in his time he had lead many succesful campaings against the sith and even before his death he personally killed 3 sith warriors in a saber battle before the thought bomb went off. An avid warrior and cunning leader he was well respected by his men and jedi peers, he was a friend to many, adopting a kind approach to his men, often making them feel good by his kind words invoking courage to his men. He lead from the front lines, and was to said to be the first to enter the battle, and last to leave it. One recount even says that he was forced to call a retreat in a battle but did not leave until almost the very last man has made his retreat, proving his bravness and the amount of which he held the life of his men.






As always let me know what you guys think =D thanks Rusty.

Sora Bulq Dark Jedi reapint.

A while ago now i posted a version of Sora Bulq as a dark jedi, but once again i was unhappy with how he turned out so i decided to get him off the shelf and repaint him to a standard i was happy with, seems its becoming a trend of mine to repaint my older figures to match my newer skills as with the Togruta Jedi, and Master Sev. so here is my newly repainted version of Dark Jedi Sora Bulq, tell me what you guys think.

Rusty introduces us to his Sith Army

I am really liking his Darth Predator (pictured above), but there are a ton of new Sith in his customs thread that are worth clicking this link to take a peek at. I must say the more I see the more it is hard for me to believe he hasn't been customizing that long!






 
Rusty'scustoms gives us this Old Republic Nautolan Jedi
-- Posted by Clonehead on Friday, February 11 2011

Forum member Rusty'scustoms' thread has really been buzzing here lately with all of the great custom figures that he has posted. today, he put up pics of this mean looking Nautolan Jedi from the old republic era in his custom figures thread. Man Rusty, that guy has an attitude. I would hate to be a sith lord and meet up with him in a dark alley somewhere.
