This figure was made with a painted head that we purchased from the online store of Spartan 118 Customs. He has a lot of fantastic painted heads to choose from. When we saw his Episode III Obi-Wan Kenobi head, we knew it was time to swap the head out on our Revenge Of The Sith action figure. We had to modify the original figure by reducing the ball joint and then we also needed to increase the size of the hole in the head itself before attaching it, but we love the results. This figure looks absolutely fantastic now.

CUSTOMIZER SPOTLIGHT #58: "REVENGE OF THE SITH" OBI-WAN KENOBI HEAD by Spartan 118 Customs

"THE CLONE WARS" DUCHESS SATINE KRYZE ("THE LAWLESS") created by Elias
This isn't the first Satine Kryze action figure in our collection, and it likely won't be the last one that we add to the collection either. The first was made by our friend Chad Peak aka Peak-OB1 Custom Creations that Dad bought for me as a gift. The Satine pictured below is the first custom action figure of the character made by Customs for the Kid.
To make her, I used a resin printed head we purchased from Moff Glidden's Customs. To make the body, we used the torso, upper arms and thighs of a Clone Wars Assaj Ventress action figure with the forearms and boots of a Clone Wars Aayla Secura action figure. Once the parts were assembled, the sculpt was completely modified with a Dremel and ProCreate sculpting putty to make the torn dress of the Duchess from her appearance in The Clone Wars episode "The Lawless". The action figure was specifically from when Darth Maul confronts Obi-Wan Kenobi on Mandalore in her presence. It was one the most memorable scenes from the entire show and making her ourselves was the only way we would see her represented in our collection at home.
It took about 24 hours to bring her to life from start to finish so it wasn't a quick and easy project, but well worth the time invested to make it happen. We couldn't be happier with the final result.
