    Being a model builder myself, I tend to have a critical eye for not only my own work but for others as well, so I don't say it lightly when I say this fellow JumboKarakuchi does some damn fine work.

    That Sidious figure in particular is just wicked.

    I noticed too that he kitbashes appropriate components from other figures, even non-SW figures, in his builds. Why sculpt a component from scratch when you can use a piece that already exists, and might only require some simple modification to work. That's smart model building.

    If I'm not mistaken in the first Kylo Ren pic he used a Predator mask probaly from a Hot Toy ! Very inventive !

    Interesting.

    The Force Lightning looks like it was sculpted/formed using Tamiya Thread Lock-

    It's like Loctite, but really thick. It's often used to simulate weld beads on model tank hulls-

    Have you made any custom StarWars figs yourself ?

    Funny you should ask. I've built a bunch of Star Wars ships and vehicles, I collect SW figures, and I do build custom figures, but I've
    never built a custom SW figure.

    The majority of my custom figure builds are WWII era, like this 1/15 scale German Machinegunner I recently completed-

    1-15-Verl-Fig-2.PNG

    However, the more well done custom SW figure builds I see, the more I want to go down that road.
