With all the building, decorating and work, I haven't found a lot of time for hobby, but have at least managed to complete two more of the Cantina denizens.
First up is Nabrun Leids, who can be seen propping up the bar as Wuher shouts that "we don't serve they're kind" to Luke.
This was a scratch built model, but I have taken a cast of the main body and head to be able to quickly do Chall Bekan a very similar denizen.
Next up Sal'torr Kal Fas another denizen who likes to prop up the bar, him and his brother Hrchek appear in several shots in the film.
To save a bit of time on this model, I used a model I'd previously cast and added a Trondoshan head, then adapted the costume to fit.
As I said at the beginning of the post only small progress this week, but hopefully can pick up the pace a bit and get some models painted for Fembruary as well as finishing my challenge models, so until next time stay safe and have fun !
Cheers Dave
Nice work, small progress is a lot better than no progress!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain

ReplyDeleteAny progress is good progress, Dave, as Iain points out :-)
ReplyDeleteIndeed Simon, only judging against my normal output, but I guess we all have quiet times ! LOL
DeleteI'd be happy with that much progress in a week, but if you're not just blame me (everybody else does!).
ReplyDeleteCheers Roger.
Thank you Roger, well you did say you wish I would slow up ! ROFL
DeleteDammit! they always find a way (lol)
DeleteIndeed mate ! LOL
DeleteLovely work on these, Dave, and it's always good to see the lesser characters getting some love. Chall Bekan is my fave, the gasmask looks excellent!
ReplyDeleteThank you Matt, was pleased with how the mask turned out.
DeleteGreat stuff Dave! So who's left? You have to be close to having everyone who had front screen time and not in the background.
ReplyDeleteThank you Ivor, got Chall the silver version of the one at the top, Zutton, the hunchback version of Snaggletooth (palitoy's name for Takeel who's normal height) two more spacemen, then there is 9 humans that are dotted around the scene, then onto the denizens of Jabba's palace and finish them ( currently on the 4 Nikto greens)
DeleteWonderful scratchbuilding and conversions, to add another two denizons to the infamous cazntina - it must be getting really crowded in there now !
ReplyDeleteThank you Joe, it would certainly but a full house if I'd built the cantina, but that's a project for another day ! LOL
DeleteTwo nice character nonetheless Dave 😊
ReplyDeleteThank you Frank, can finally see the end of the tunnel, " NO WAIT IT@S A RUNNAWAY TRAIN !" LOL
DeleteYou know I love your SW posts the best and am very happy to see yet more of those little seen aliens being remembered and created for your cantina project.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dai, got one last post of aliens and spacemen to do, then all I've got left are some humans, and then the building itself, but that will probably get done in the season of scenery challenge latter this year
