I got impatient to do Tyvokka, so I used basically what I had handy. The better base head would be Boushh's
Bounty Chewy, but I had already dismantled Chenlambec. I Dremeled down the crazy hair on Hoth Chewy's
head and sculpted a new 'do. I then cut down the legs on the HP kid (cheap @ K-Mart) and popped the
hands and head. I sculpted a little fur poking out of the collar and a new shirt-line for his robes. I cut off
Chewy's hands and feet and superglued them to the arms and legs. The pants and inner robe I painted black,
the outer robe a mix of brown and black to get a very dark brown, and the outer robe is tan. I cut the
removeable cloak from (one of) my Adi's to the right length. The belt is a piece cut from Maul's skirt that I
superglued in place. I repainted the Wookiee pieces brown and added the gray stripes under his eyes. The
saber hilt is a slightly bent piece I cut from the staff that came with the Daena figure from the Planet of the
Apes line. I used a sanding bit on my Dremel to carve a notch on opposite sides. The hilt is muddy brown,
the notches are silver with little yellow dots on it. The silver end pieces are cut from random sabers and
superglued on. He's not the cleanest looking Tyvokka I've seen, but I like him. |
