![[Empire Strikes Back/Return of the Jedi Yoda] Who doesn't love YODA?!!
I want a complete collection of 1:12 star wars figures and this is just a step in that direction.
Even though it's Yoda, I really wanted a very articulated version, an I'm really happy with the result!
I cut down a movie Frodo, to get the right proportions. I sculpted the hands, and toes (that were attached to frodo's feet). I also sculpted a hump on yoda's back. The head is from a sculpture I did years back when I was trying out super sculpy. It was all one piece and I didn't want to cut the head off, so I cast it. I didn't have mold making kit so i made a 2 part mold with my apoxie sculpt, and cast in apoxie as well. I was happy with how well it turned out, and I got to keep my figure.
I repainted all of the clothes brown, after that I got to the lots of tones to get Yoda's skin where I wanted it.
The cloak was inspired by the work of glorbes and spawnsauce. If you don't know their work, it's great stuff, and what they do in cloth is inspiring! The c](userimages/customs/49500/49376-1.jpg) Empire Strikes Back/Return of the Jedi Yoda Star Warsby pulpyfictionWho doesn't love YODA?!!

I'd love to say I came up with the base for this one but the idea for it came to me when I saw another customizer use it for a creepy little henchman of Joker (can't recall either the customizer and character.) Anyway, I've been trying to come up with some base for Yoda for awhile and when I saw it I knew that would work. Height is a little too tall but, I'm pretty happy with how it worked out.
Popped Hornswaggles/Ock's heads, Removed the goggles and hai from Doc Ock. With Green Stuff, scuplted the hair, ears, fingers, toes and robe. The lightsaber is fodder and the cane is repair putty. Tamiya and Testors for the paints, sealed with Dullcote.
Let me know what you think, comments and critiques are always welcome.

Yoda is my favorite Star Wars Jedi Master, I was excited to make him for this contest. The base originally was a SS Gotekn (DBZ) figure. I sculpted the feet, hands, cloak and head (and removable chest piece). I decided to make him remarkably younger, I really enjoyed working on this project, I am anxious to find out what everyone thinks. I want to thank my wife for her encouragement and support on this custom.

![[Yoda: the Jedi Master] NONE of the previously produced Yoda action figures incorporated ALL of the characteristics that I wanted to see within ONE single figure.
Maybe I'm just crazy, but it seems to me like ALL of the recent Yodas produced by Hasbro have VERY strangely sculpted HEADS (which are far too small), and do NOT resemble the character at all. They also feature really badly painted EYES that make our beloved Yoda seem like he's been hitin' the sauce a bit too much. The EYES of this character are SO important!!! They impart all the wisdom and age that he stands for. Also, a LARGE noggin is what makes him seem more elf-like and cerebral. These recent pin-headed Yodas just ain't cuttin' it !!
I simply wanted a clean, elegant, custom Yoda Action Figure with a working pair of LEGS, an accurately-sculpted, dignified face sculpt (in the correct proportional size), rooted hair, necklace and belt accessories, and cloth robes.

The entire surface of this figure has been sculpted to match the look from the movie. All the pilot gear has been re-created. To make things better, Luke has two looks!. Rather than having two separate heads, THIS Luke has something better. You can display him with his helmet, which has also been sculpted to match the movie...all the way down to the decals. OR you can take the helmet off and then easily pop on the sculpted hair piece. The hair piece is comepletely separate from the head and pops on and off with ease! How's that for innovation!!!
In addition, Luke has his lightsaber, but ya know, he doesn't always have it turned on, so in this figure, the blade of the lightsaber is removable. As an added bonus, the hilt has a metal loop that lets him hang the lightsaber hilt on his belt. The belt has a metal clip sculpted in and it ain't going anywhere...so check out the pics to see how it works.

And not a very original entry, as this figure was also used by the Figurerealm crew as the ‘avatar’ for the contest. That said, I felt it was a great idea to turn Yoda over to The Dark Side and the idea kept me awake all night. Until I got up, made me this figure and slept like a baby after that. Even if the recipe is basically just a simple repaint, I’m quite thrilled about the way he came out. So here he is… Yodarth!
back story:
When Yoda travelled to Kamino in an attempt to discover the truth of the clone army, and to bring some of those troops with him to Geonosis to save his trapped fellow Jedi (the battle that would be the start of the Clone Wars), secretly a few of his hairs were collected from his bunk in the Republic space craft.
With the use of Yoda’s DNA, a clone fetus of the Jedi Master was created at Kamino. A project that had been ordered by none other than Darth Sidious himself, who was planning to](userimages/customs/25500/25059-1.jpg) Yodarth Star Wars Clone Warsby GARMy first ever entry in a custom contest.

![[Yoda, Original] The Yoda is just a simple repaint, I figured he was a little more green when he was younger..what with sunning himself and hooking up with babes on the beach(When you think about it that force thing would be cool when it came to hooking up with chicks..."You will pay for dinner, and take me home you will"..SWEET!) The second figure is a prince xixior or something I found at a garage sale. I repainted his head with a cool wash gave him a robe and repainted his kinda feminine purple robe and you get this guy.
