Sculpt work is close to completion for the Arena Combat version of starkiller. Completed the soft goods application as well as the belt and satchel. Just some minor details to add then it will be off to painting! :)
Completed Jedi Master Luke Skywalker as seen in issue #3 of Star Wars Invasion by Dark Horse Comics. Luke is in command of Republic forces sent to the planet Rychel in order to repel the invading forces of the Yuuzhan Vong.
The figure was mostly sculpted in Aves Epoxy FIXIT sculpt using a plastic articulated armature. The forearms and hands have been recasted from original parts. The head originalted from a Legacy Snowspeeder Luke figure, casted in wax and completly retooled and refined adding additional markings to the face, age lines, a lower brow, hair and ears...I also strengthened the jaw. The figure measures 3.75" in height. Painted using Floyquil Acrylics by testors.
I have completed the sculpt to this version of Starkiller from The Force Unleashed 2 - Arena Combat Gear. Next the figure will be primed then painted. Figure is in 1:18 scale sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt - a two part epoxy. Also includes casted materials and fabric.
A very rough draft of Vader's head sculpt - Anakin Skywalker. He is being modeled after the Sideshow 1:1 bust - 1:1 to 1:18 - talk about a scale down!! The sculpt will be totally seperate from the rest of the helmet armor and will be ball jointed.
**UPDATE** - Here are the sisters close to having the frame sculpting completed - I raised the hips on the one and finished sculpting the lower legs on the other. You'll notice that one is slightly shorter than the other...very happy with the differences. Each a unique figure.
Here are the Tonnika Sisters completed head sculpts - both hair styles differ as was in the movie. I will complete the body sculpt and begin working on the costume details. I am also rolling around the idea of doing two additional head sculpts of the sisters as one appeared in the Clone Wars animated program - just an image shown briefly in the jedi library but with a hair style much different to what is seen in A New Hope.
Painting time!!! Gotta get myself into the mood - a few days late for Alien Day but with my work pretty much everyday is Alien Day lol! #painting #miniature #alien #alienday #nostromo

Some more "unrefined" detail work at 1:18 scale....Unrefined because I haven't gone back to clean up the curves and sharpen edges yet. Serious detailing in such a small space...I admire those that can add detailing to scales even smaller than this!! A bigger reveal with my next blog update..delayed a week but will be up soon :)
Here's a work in progress shot of my Mon Calamari Bounty Hunter - based on the concept art from Star Wars Galaxies. Head is an original sculpt and is complete, the body is still a work in progress. More about this guy in my nexy blog update. I have in mind many more Mon Cal characters that will be in the works soon. Stay Tuned :)
The long tail of the beast - Alien: Isolation - :18 scale. Assembling and sculpting the alien from the Creative Assembly game. The tail is twice as long as the 79 beastie - just took the original tail and doubled the length. Currently it is hard plastic...hope to make a bendy tail from it soon. Ball jointed neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, torso, hips, knees etc.....similar to the 79 Alien I'm finishing up. Sculpting the new lower legs that are similar to the runner (dog) alien in Alien3 so it's a good introduction to what awaits me when I continue to build that particular beast. As always, I take more image than is needed - just love working with this fellow lol! #alien #alienisolation #creativeassembly #bigchap #giger #xenomorph #sith_fire30 #nostromo

1:18 scale head sculpt of Michael Fassbender as David from the motion picture Prometheus. More detailed images with my next blog update.
My 1:18 scale, 4.5" tall Furlag sculpt is complete. The head is a completly original sculpt. The figures body is also original and is sculpted over a custom created, articluated frame. I used Aves FIXIT for the sculpt and casted the head in plastic. Furlag has 14 points of articulation. Hand painted using Testors Polyscale (Floquil) acrylic paints. A very unique species in the Star Wars universe...
From Wookipedia - "Furlag was a small-time bounty hunter with large, batlike ears. Operating during the height of the Galactic Empire, he was not well-known, but often worked with other prominent bounty hunters, such as Zuckuss and 4-LOM. He, Zuckuss, and 4-LOM were subcontracted by fellow hunter Skorr on Ord Mantell during the early Galactic Civil War in the hunt for a group of prospective Rebels, then again later with 4-LOM and Zuckuss as well as several other bounty hunters including the Trandoshan Bossk to attempt to pry Han Solo's carbonite-encased body from Boba Fett."
Unfortunately Furlag underestimated Boba Fett and met his end being sucked through and open airlock shaft into deep space.
**UPDATE** Completed the forearms and added the first layer of sculpt to the upper legs. The lower abdomen and back still need some work. The arms are maxxed out on articulation - swivel/hinge joints to the the wrists, swivel joint on the forearm and the elbow/shoulder are ball joints. Due to the damage Malgus received to his jaw, throat and neck during the Aldreean campaign, a special mask had to be worn for protection. This sculpt (not completed - additional details need to be applied) reflects his appearance during the "Deceived" trailer as he commanded Imperial/Sith forces in the sacking of Coruscant.
Darth Malgus from the upcoming Bioware game Star Wars: Old Republic. You've seen this dark lord in the "Hope" trailer - he will have alternate damaged body armor and an alternate head featuring the respirator seen in the "Deceived" trailer.

This headsculpt reflects the battel damaged received from both a grenade attack and a thermal detonator- I also made a casting of his chest piece to reflect damage. I plan to cast the shoulder armor which will also recieve damage. This reflects his appearance near the end of
the "Hope" trailer as he commanded Imperial/Sith forces in the sacking of Alderaan.

The body armor seen here is complete! I have sculpted detail to the shoulder straps and added the chest strap . The completed shoulder armor and guard are connected by a clear band, then strapped to the under arm using a second clear band. This now gives the figure the same wide range of articulation as before.
Work in Progress on the body of Starkiller in his Arena Combat Gear - the costume mostly associated with this character in The Force Unleashed 2. Working is the upper body, abdomen, shoulders, arms and body armor.
Scale shot of the Praetorian Xenomorph head sculpt next to the Spitter xeno which are similar in design but the Praetorian is obviously going to be a larger build, using mainly the 79 Big Chap's body with longer limbs.

I am revisiting my ongoing work on an ultimate Darth Vader - this time updating articulation and reworking the helmet. The helmet you see below is the older version - just wanted to show the new updated articulation. The feet come from one of the Halo figures by McFarlane toys. These will of course be "dremeled" down and resculpted. The helmet is going through a complete resculpt...and I'm talkin' complete. I work on one section, mold and cast, then a next phase. So far I've completed the mouth piece, nose and helmet plate. Once the helmet is finalized, I will cast again to begin creating a three piece using the magnets I've spoken of in an earlier entry. I will also be working on a head sculpt of Anakin (Vader).

Sculpt update to the Praetorian Xenomorph (egg morpher) - Alien: Defiance - 1:18 scale work in progress.
Sculpt using Aves FIXIT from Aves Studio LLC
Forgive the skinny arms and clay spots holding everything together LOL! Using some wax clay to bring in all the parts to show how the figure is coming along. The arm frames are prior castings of the 79 Alien along with acrylic rods to make the appendages longer - the length of the creature's limbs are to be exaggerated just bit. In my opinion the elongated limbs brings with it that "creep" factor. The next step will be to sculpt the arms and begin work on the tail...which will conatin a good amount of detail.
More to come! #alien #aliens #darkhorsecomics #defiance #aves #avesfixit #sculpting #xenomorph #praetorian #eggmorphing #customactionfigure
I've taken a series of photos that show the early work into getting the Savage Opress's frame constructed as well as some early stages into the sculpt.
Straying from the path he has sturggled to hold true, Dass Jennir arrives on Telerath. Unbeknownst to Jennir, his destiny with the living force is about to be revealed and his burdened conscience wiped clean....
Dass Jennir is a favorite character of mine from the Star Wars Dark Horse Expanded Universe.
My apologies for taking so long to complete this piece...as with all my work, I never center my full attention on just one project, always a bit at a time, tabling and returning to the subject when the inspiration hits.
This is a 1:18th scale figure - fully articulated with all the basic movements and can be posed in many postions like other factory made figures...mostly when his cowl is removed.
Both figures sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt and painted using Floyquil Acrylics.

Sculpt update on the a Working Joe - 1:18 scale. Alien: Isolation. Started sculpting the lower half of the figure this week. Still making adjustments to the head and upper body sculpt. #alienisolation #creativeassembly #amandaripley #workingjoe #sith_fire30 #sevatopol
An earlier custom of Cade Skywalker from the Dark Horse comic series Star Wars: Legacy.
Created early 2009
1:18 scale - approx. 3.75".
Portions sculpted using Aves FIXIT
Painted using Floyquil Acrylics
Finalized frames for several females seen in the image - some adjustments still need to be made with the last two listed.
Much more detail to the head this week - also worked on the upper arms. I feel the detail is going to be enormous with this figure once completed...and with a full range of articulation? Awesome! I'm looking forward to beginning the chest cavity.
However, many revisions need to take place before I am satisfied but I feel I am heading in the right direction. All Hail FIXIT SCULPT! I couldn't do this type of detail at this scale without it!
I hope these early images show you how much effort goes into creating these figures - probably the most difficult part of building one of these is the early stages, creating a working armature that will allow the articulation I want as well as support the sculpt work I intend to apply.
Completed Sian Jeisel from the Dark Horse comic series - Star Wars: Republic. The figure is 3.75" high and sculpted using Aves FIXIT two-part epoxy and painted using Floquil Acrylics. Visit sithfire.blogspot.com/ for additional details.

Will be working on some 1:18 scale figures form not only the Dark Knight trilogy, but the Tim burton era as well - NOPE, nothing after Batman Returns...well, possibly Arnold as Mr. Freeze - but that's it!
