"JEDI YOUNGLINGS" created by Customs for the Kid (PART ONE)

Plenty in development over here at "Customs for the Kid". This Jedi Youngling project was just totally spontaneous and decided upon only minutes before we got to work on it. We had to make something special for an upcoming episode of "Customizing The Clone Wars". Darth Daddy's plan was to make the Hondo Ohnaka "Slave I" from the same story arc by repainting the large Vintage Collection Slave I.

I had other plans. Dad just went along with me once he saw my determination. We both wanted the younglings displayed in my collection and there was no better time than the present to get started at making them. Especially with the show that they'd be featured in only being two episodes away from release. Presently, we are just about halfway done with our "Youngling" project, which is surprising considering we only started 2 weeks ago. The remaining figures to be made will likely be revealed after we wrap up the "Customizing The Clone Wars" episode dedicated to their arc. In the episode, we will be teaching our viewers how to make a set of younglings for themselves. It will also be the first place the entire set of action figures will be shown together with the new additions of Ganodi, Gungi, and Huyang.

As far as the how the workload has been divided up so far, it has been a true team project. Dad sculpted out Byph by himself and did most of Zatt. I asked to sculpt Zatt's face and his two outer tentacles. I had something specific in mind and Dad said "go for it". I also added some subtle highlights to the figure before the paint was sealed. I also sculpted Petro's head and upper torso, while Dad sculpted the arms and added articulation to the elbows and wrists. Dad also sculpted everything on Petro from the belt on down. We shared the paint on Petro. The only thing Dad did on Katooni was shorten her arms, while maintaining the original articulation. The rest of her was all me. The recipes for all the figures will be on display in PART TWO of the "Jedi Youngling" post.

Dad made Zatt, Petro and Byph's lightsabers. I made Ganodi and Katooni's lightsabers. Gungi's  lightsaber has not been started yet.

As for what's ahead, Ganodi's sculpt has been totally completed since these photos were taken. I only have to paint her and she is ready to go on the dislay shelf.

GANODI

Gungi has been parted started, but finishing him before the show is a low priority. We know the host of our show, Peak-OB1 Custom Creations has a Gungi he has been working on, so making ours in time for "Customizing The Clone Wars" isn't necessary since we will have Chad's Gungi available for the episode. We still have half of Gungi's headsculpt to finish, mostly his beard as well as the hair on the sides and top of his head. We have to extend the hair above each ball joint to break up the straight lines and a few minor details need to be sculpted onto the belt that cuts diagonally across his chest before he is ready to be painted.

GUNGI

Here at home, we are most excited about an SLA resin 3-D print of Isotelus' Huyang that Dad just ordered and as of this posting is currently enroute to our home. Dad is hoping to modify and super-articulate the 3-D print to complete the entire set. Huyang is Dad's #1 Fan Choice figure to be made. He was hoping Huyang would have found a home at Galaxy's Edge making lightsabers with guests so he could be made into a 3.75" action figure one day, but we can only dream. Until then, better to take initiative and figure out a way to pull it off. Isotelus' design eliminated Dad's biggest obstacle, perfecting the symmetry that was would be required for a good headsculpt and torso for a droid. Isotelus also provided extra arms that could make adding articulation to the arms easier.

It was bit of a last minute decision to tackle so many figures at once, but we are so glad we made the leap!
