Darth Dusty is an artist that has been drawing, painting, and
sculpting for over twenty-five years, and customizing for over ten. He
mainly enjoys customizing figures from the expanded universe of Star
Wars, and creating characters of his own, but also indulges in other
areas of Pop Culture. The goal is to give people something rare, and
unique, and also to challenge himself to make customs of characters that
may never see the light of day on a store shelf.
Creating figures for adult collectors, he loves the use of cloth goods, and hand sculpting new parts. Darth Dusty
uses many materials, such as, Acrylic Paints, Apoxy Sculpt, Casting
Resins, and even puffy paint, as key elements in each creation. Darth Dusty
researches many of the figures he plans to build to get as much
accuracy as possible without compromising the functionality of the
action figure.
Fairly retired from doing commissioned figures, he loves hearing ideas on what figures to make. Darth Dusty keeps a list of characters on the back burner, so expect to see plenty more figures to come.
Although he was just featured in our Customizer Spotlight last month, we figured now would be the best time to feature the rest of his work while interest was high. If you thought the Force Unleashed II Starkiller that Dad got me for Christmas was cool, you should see his other customs. Check out the video and prepare to be entertained.
