![[Star Wars Legacy Darth Wrakiss] Darth Wrakiss is a master swordsman who serves as a trainer for new Sith initiates in the Sith Temple. He is a cold, stern master who demands the most from his students. When he is not teaching the Sith younglings, he serves as a "negotiator" for Darth Krayt. Sent to deal with stubborn subjects, Wrakiss never comes back without a few new heads for his collection. None defy the will of Lord Krayt. None.
I made the figure using the upper body of the Ugha Warrior figure form the Indiana Jones line with a head from Durge from the Star Wars comic book two pack.

Synidas is a Chiss giant, standing well over 7 feet tall, but his imposing nature would permeate most enemies' resolve were he of a smaller stature. Synidas has a unique talent for making his troops fight harder than any other commander in the Imperial forces. Some say he uses the Force to motivate his men. The men say he uses the tip of his lightsaber. Either way, this massive Sith Lord is a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield. Not content to sit in the command bunker, Synidas charges into battle ahead of his troops just like the Jedi Knights of old.](userimages/customs/17000/16824-1.jpg) Star Wars Legacy Darth Synidas Star Warsby monsterforgeDarth Synidas is Darth Krayt's trusted ground forces commander.

![[T-RIP With Improved Articulation] I bought this guy knowing he was pretty much a chunk of plastic with arms and legs that moved. I took him out to the shop and performed cruel and unusual acts upon his tiny, lifeless form. I cut off the head, cut the wedge of plastic below the upper jaw and under the chin, cut a thin slice of plastic from the top of the wedge, and glued it back in place to essentially close up the mouth. I trimmed the sides of the neck (the back of the neck was pretty flat due to the fact that the neck is sculpted with the wires sitting tightly on the sides of his neck ) so that the head could rotate. I dremeled a hole in the upper body where the neck would be and inserted a plastic rod into the hole. I dremeled a hole in the head, added a ring of plastic to the neck to replace the space taken out by the mouth wedge, and put the pieces together. The result is a head that has a closed mouth and a swivel neck.
I cut off the two pistons on his waist and cut him in two at the place where the spine meets t](userimages/customs/15500/15002-1.jpg) T-RIP With Improved Articulation Terminatorby monsterforgeI bought this guy knowing he was pretty much a chunk of plastic with arms and legs that moved.

His head pops off easily and the neck brace isn't even glued in place. The only thing to remove is the backpack, which comes off easy as pie with a little heating.
The head was from a nameless 6 inch soldier figure. I dremmeled his hair and features down and fine sanded the head smooth. The visor is a piece of plastic glued in place. The ear pieces are from the belt clips on some Iron Grenadier figures. The pouches on his arms and legs are from various ChapMei figures. The belt is actually from the first 25th Anniversary box set Snake Eyes figure! The sword and knife were custom made from plastic. The grey straps and holsters/sheathes are pleather.

I took a Gymnast Barbie and mangled her up a great deal with a Dremmel tool (When you do this, think of how human teeth would mangle flesh... it keeps things in perspective). I sculpted a new left hand and a head for her from Sculpey.
When I sculpt zombie heads, I always start with a skull. I do it for two main reasons: it keeps the look of the facial features correct, and it helps you make the wounds look even better in the long run. I layer the muscle up from the skull and cook the sculpt again with each layer. I add the eyes before I add the skin and give the whole head another cooking. The final layer, the skin is made by rolling out the Sculpey with a rolling pin and laying it over the sculpted skull and muscle tissue. This allows me to make the skin look paper thin and to actually have the muscle tissue show up in the final sculpt. You'll need to trim out the eye holes and the hole for th](userimages/customs/11500/11337-1.jpg) Melissa the Zombie Zombiesby monsterforgeMelissa is one of the zombies from my custom figure line "The Restless."

The protruding bone from his arm is the runner (that frame that model parts are attached to) from a model kit carved to look like bone. The bone of his fingers were made the same way. His clothes (just regular Joe or similar sized fashion doll clothes) were distressed in the places where his Dremmel "injuries" were. I painted him and added hair from teddy bear fur to his head.
