Dad Creates a Wookiee Padawan

Dad kept seeing Wookiee Jedi in many of the Star Wars customizing forums and really wanted to make one, but wanted to make a unique addition to the forums when he sat down to make one. Now that Dad is starting to sculpt his own pieces, he felt now was the best time to tackle to Wookiee Jedi. Dad broke out the Aves Apoxie Sculpt and sculpted a one of a kind head for his Wookiee Padawan. It took several hours to make, but Dad was really happy with the results.

WOOKIEE PADAWAN
created by Darth Daddy

This Jedi Padawan uses not one but two lightsabers in battle.

The Wookiee Padawan was created with the head, lower arms and legs of a Legacy Collection Chewbacca, and the torso and upper arms and legs of a Legacy Collection Obi Wan Kenobi.

DAD's "CLONEHEAD" VIDEO WAS POSTED ON IMPERIAL SHIPYARDS YESTERDAY

CLONEHEAD ADDED TO "CUSTOMS I WISH I OWNED"

Clint Conrad, known as Clonehead at imperialshipyards.net, has been a Star Wars custom maker for about 5-6 years now. He got into doing Star Wars customs when trying to promote his ebay store, he noticed how much hype and traffic that other seller's Star Wars custom figures and vehicles were getting. Being a lover of plastic modeling in his youth, especially of military armor models, clint figured that he could put his painting and building skills to the test and try to make a custom figure to sell on ebay. Well, the experiment worked and within a year he had made and sold at least 100 customs "some with dioramas" to buyers in at least 30 different countries. 4-5 years ago, a buyer directed clint to a star wars collecting and custom forum where he posted alot of work and met the admin of the future imperialshipyards where he was invited to form and moderate the customs and diorama boards when the site was created.

Sometime before the Imperial Shipyards site was born, Clint was having a hard time finding some of the parts from hard to find figures that he wanted to incorporate into his customs so, having a little knowledge of molding and casting from his military modeling days, Clint started making parts to use on his custom figures. It wasn't too long after that Clint decided to start selling his castings to the other custom makers and has ever since. You can find auctions for these parts in his ebay store and now at his resin parts for sale thread at imperialshipyards.net

CLONEHEAD

Clint has posted custom work at several sites but as moderator, considers himself at home at the shipyards where he has placed pics and wip commentary in his custom figures reloaded thread, his Clonehead's custom figures #2 thread, and in his Clonehead's dioramas thread, all at imperialshipyards.net.

DAD'S CUSTOM UNHOODED JAWA & VADER'S CLONE WERE POSTED ON THE FRONT PAGE OF IMPERIAL SHIPYARDS ON THE SAME DAY

Dad's WIP Darth Vader Clone and Unhooded Jawa both got the front page treatment on Imperial Shipyards today. Go Dad!!

THE UNHOODED JAWA

When Dad saw this image of the unhooded Jawa, he knew he wanted to add one to my collection.

Work In Progress

Dad's unhooded Jawa custom action figure was made from the POTF Jawa so Dad could still keep the yellow glow of the eyes in his action figure and sculpted the face around the eyes by hand with a thumbtack using Apoxie Sculpt from Aves.
