![[The Apprentice] Raised by Darth Vader, The Apprentice, (code named "Starkiller"), had one ultimate goal… to assassinate the Emperor, giving Darth Vader the chance to rule the galaxy. However, the Emperor discovered this plan, and forced Vader to kill the apprentice. This is where he finds himself now… on the run. Traveling mostly through desert and similar dry terrain, The Apprentice equips himself with a thrown together survival pack, as well as a side bag for food, and a custom desert blaster. Being extremely well trained in the force, The Apprentice is fearless in his lone travels, using his powers and his lightsaber skills to ward off any passing trouble.

Primed him black to start off with, then sculpted the rest. Did a full paint job (about 4 or 5 shades on the paint job), finished it off with a tiny bit of silver to dry brush some specific spots.
I really wanted to give him a war-torn desert look, so i started off with a basic brown as the base, then added about 2 more shades of brown to get a more textured look. After that i worked on the fine details by using a lot of dry brushing with light browns, then did quite a bit of washing with the darker brown/black (to get all the crevices in the figure to darken up, giving it a nice depth). Finally i added a tiny bit of silver to the figure by dry brushing very specific pa](userimages/customs/20500/20287-1.jpg) Chewbacca Star Warsby vasquez**Update** been having a few requests pop up on the forums and off for a better front pic.
