Just like with my prior series of Heir to the Empire figures, I am aware that this storyline has been relegated to “Legends” status by Disney/LucasFilm, but I still have fond memories of it from the 1990s. So of course, I had to make at least a few figures from it! I chose to base these designs on the graphic…

Yes, I know that the original Star Wars Expanded Universe has been relegated to “Legends” status, but many of us will always have a soft spot for some of those characters. Particularly the characters that Timothy Zahn dreamed up for the Heir to the Empire novel! So of course, I just had to make vintage-styled Kenner-esque figures of Mara Jade…

Just a quick update to let everyone know that I have a little YouTube channel now. Check it out HERE! I don’t have a set schedule in mind for how often I’ll release videos – it will really just depend upon how much time I have on any given week. But you can expect tours of my workshop, tips and…

The original Kenner run of Star Wars action figures included 11 figures based on the alien goons that hung out with Jabba the Hutt on Tatooine, not including the rebels in disguise (or the torture droids!). But was that really enough? Not for me, or for all my fellow customizers who kept asking for more! So below you will find…

So I’ve made it my mission for this fall/winter to make as many of the wacky characters as possible from the infamous 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special. Last year, I recreated the unproduced Kenner prototypes of Chewbacca’s family, but they were looking a little lonely in my collection so I figured this year I’d give them some friends! I’ll be…

Originally, I wasn’t planning to do any figures based on characters from Ahsoka, mainly because Hasbro had already announced a wave of their vintage-style RETRO figures based on the show. But then I got into the show and realized that some of my favorite characters WEREN’T included in Hasbro’s lineup! So I put my other projects (like the Holiday Special…

Easily on the top 5 list of things I get asked on Instagram, Etsy, or Cults3d is the question “So I’m new to all of this – what do you recommend I use to paint 3d printed figures?” I usually just fire of a paragraph or two with some quick suggestions and best practices, but I decided that since I…

Along with “How should I paint these figures?” the most common question I get is “How should I print your files?” There are a million good guides and tutorials out there to get you up to speed on the various methods and techniques for 3d printing, so I’m not going to rehash that stuff. BUT! I’m happy to share some…
