I wanted to make an Episode 7 figure now and see how close I got to the final product later. Using the trailer as reference I resculpted the helmet and modified the helmet.
I resculpted the armor and added a magnetic disc to the back to attach his rifle.
I used a repainted and modified John Stewart DCUC head for the helmetless look. The heads are interchangeable on the ball joint.
The rifle is from some fodder and attaches to the back with the magnet.
