TCW "DEATH WATCH LIEUTENANT" created by Customs for the Kid
This was a custom that Darth Daddy started and I finished. Dad began by sculpting a screen accurate gauntlet onto a Clone Wars Death Watch Mandalorian with some ProCreate and added the pointed ends of wooden toothpicks to make the tips of the missiles. The head we purchased from Watto's Scrapyard and we have nothing but complimentary things to say about the sculpt of the head. Once Dad finished the figure's sculpt, he painted the base coats onto the figure and got the figure primed for additional paint applications.
Then I came in and added the wires of the gauntlet to the figure with cuttings from the datapad of Admiral Ackbar that I drilled and glued into place, drilled the helmet of the Death Watch figure and added a spare rangefinder that was part of an ARC Trooper casted kit that we used to finish the last detail before I completed Dad's paint job by adding in all the fine details to finish this collaboration.

THE CLONE WARS "WALKABOUT - AHSOKA TANO" created by Elias of "Customs for the Kid"
This project was created on commission for a client, and when I received the order, I couldn't have been more excited to make something new. This specific rendition of Ahsoka depicts her sporting her mechanic jumpsuit during her walkabout with the Martez sisters. This one will definitely hurt to send away since I still don't have one for my own collection. I'll have to remedy that very soon, so be sure to keep an eye out for her.
For the build of the figure, I used the upper arms, elbows, torso and legs of a "Clone Wars" Legacy Collection Adventure Padmé, the forearms of a The Black Series Ahsoka Tano, and the head of the Shadow of the Dark Side Scuba Ahsoka. First we sanded off the vest of the torso of the Padme with a Dremel before starting the sculpt. The jumpsuit details and control panel on the left glove were fully sculpted, as well as her elongated Lekku and Montrals. After my sculpt dried, I just painted the figure based off of images from the episode, and then sealed it to protect my paint application.

"STAR WARS REBELS" QUARRIE
The Quarrie figure pictured here was purchased from @angryraccoonminiatures (aka @howlingduck) on Instagram.
After we got the figure in the mail, we made a few special modifications ourselves. Darth Daddy painted the base colors onto the figure and then Elias modified the eyes and lower half of the head sculpt with some ProCreate to produce a "Customs for the Kid" head for the final figure that is pictured here. After, Elias added some highlights to my original paintjob to finish it up so I could take these photos, I went and added a few touch ups of my own after he wrapped up. A true team project from three different artists.
@angryraccoonminiatures have plenty of other noteworthy "Star Wars Rebels" characters available for purchase in his Etsy store so be sure to check them out!
Quarrie was a Mon Calamari starship engineer who lived on the remote planet of Shantipole during the Age of the Empire. After the early rebellion suffered losses against the Galactic Empire during an attempted blockade run, rebel Hera Syndulla and members of her crew came to Shantipole in order to retrieve the prototype B-Wing, Prototype B6, which he dubbed the "Blade Wing." Quarrie was initially uninterested, as he did not believe Syndulla to be the right pilot for his ship. However, her story of growing up and dreaming of being a pilot swayed Quarrie's mind, and he allowed her to test the starfighter.
