Hey All,

Here's my very first attempt at a Star Wars custom. Imperial Shadow Guard w/SA.

I'm sorta happy with him, but i think his legs are to skinny and he came out a tad taller than i wanted.

The one on the left is Hasbro's & the one on the right is mine.

Very nice. Like you said, the legs seem a touch skinny, but with the robe on you can't even tell.

It's a shame all these cool ass Star Wars figures need these alterations...

I think the biggest area where you've gained height is at the torso connection...

Dunno if they'd work any better...but did you consider Baroness thighs?

I tried measuring up the Baroness' legs from Dollar General, but they seemed even skinnier, i dunno, maybe next time i'll use a Stormtrooper torso, as it appears in the video game, that way he won't look so skinny.
