Deliah Blue: The Apoxie Sculpt Modification

I'm not sure how many members of our audience were happy with Hasbro's Deliah Blue action figure that was recently released exclusively by Entertainment Earth around this holiday season, but here at home we didn't feel the head sculpt accurately portrayed the Star Wars Legacy heroine. Dad offered to give my Deliah Blue action figure's hair the proper volume we are used to seeing in the Expanded Universe comics. Dad said he isn't completely thrilled with his results.  He had to stop sculpting this figure partway through and then Dad had to make dinner, but he does admit overall he does like the action figure better than Hasbro's. He just said he isn't going to customize action figures in the middle of cooking dinner for us and said he isn't going to customize action figures in the middle of cooking dinner for us anymore.

Deliah Blue's hair was sculpted by hand using Aves Apoxie Sculpt.

He has been a very committed 1/18th scale Star Wars collector since 1991! He collected when no one cared about Star Wars and has been with the line ever since.

The first three custom action figures we ever bought were from this great artist. It was his action figures and blog that inspired the "Customs for the Kid" blog and gave me the thought to ask Dad to make custom action figures for me.
