Obi-Wan Kenobi - Desert Nomad

My most challenging and time consuming project yet. Goal= Recreate the Nomad Statue.

Status= Achieved.

Complete upgrade of my old obi-wan. Entirely hand painted.

Tunic is card (my usual), in a more sand colour (with added dirt). Bottom of tunic is cut and shaped to look like flowing.

Cape is a larger piece of card cut specifically to that shape and painted. Saber is a cut official version. Backpack is an upside down rebel trooper, which 'cycler rifle' tacked on. Personally I think it came out amazing and am thoroughly pleased with the result.

 

I'll upload my entry photo to Chris W's contest tomorrow (with both obi versions).

 

As always lets me know what you think! :)

 

Also quick shoutout/credit to Marina (tagged), who inspired me to create a fig in this style (highly detailed and in an unusual moving style :)
