LESS SCREEN TIME THAN ME

 Yes todays trio collectively spent less time on screen then I did ! LOL So first is another pod racer, Clegg Holdfast who is a Nosaurian, left off some of the finery to make his clothing look more everyday.


Next is Gasgano, who is a Xexto, for this one I left off the headgear, for walking around the streets.


Here is a group shot of all the racers so far.


I now have the seven that didn't even get a second of screentime left to do. 

Today I can call time on the patrons of the Cantina, as I have the last one finished.


Wanted to make sure he lent on the table, as in the screen shot, the head started as a GW Imperial Guard head, but the rest is greenstuff over wire frame, on one of my stools. That's all for today, so until next time, stay safe, and have fun !

Cheers Dave

    1. Thank you SD, there was a David Stone in New Hope, which wasn't me, the screentime I was referring to was this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5EZaO1HPF4&t=992s where I played a rock alien ! LOL Although would love to be an extra in Star Wars as well ! LOL

  6. Your dedication to your Star Wars project continues to inspire and create awe, Dave. What cracking additions you've sculpted & painted. I'd be surprised if that patron of the cantina wasn't given a name (and backstory) in some Star Wars CCG or another. I always thought they covered everyone by the end. LOL!!

    1. Thank you Simon, there are a couple that still don't have names, this is one, the human from Jabba's palace is another, and there was an unnamed Aqualish in Jabba's Palace as well, even their figure releases were classed as unnamed ! LOL

    2. Dave, you're absolutely right. All I can find is that he's a Corellian Pirate who is sat down with Debnoli. Blimey. I'd have thought between all the expansion of the Star Wars CCG and Wizards of the Coast's Star Wars Miniatures Game that someone would have covered him. LOL!!

    3. Some fall through the cracks, Bespin is the worst for unnamed characters, ones known as man running with Ice Cream Churner (now known as Cantona's ! LOL)

  7. Amazing stuff sir, I think I used to work with that cantina chap years ago 🤣🤣🤣

    As for the ice cream churned isn't he called Ben Anjerri? 🤣🤣🤣😉

    Cheers Roger

  8. More great scultps, Dave - these ones really have that "Episode I" look to them where Lucas just went entirely wacky with CGI!

  9. Its great to see more pod racers from you, Dave! I used Gasgano a lot in the Star Wars Pod Racer game so I know him well. I also have his pod racer built currently as part of a Lego set which I was attempting to build and then sell so its especially cool to see him. The group shot is excellent and I can't help but think how they're all half-mad for their chosen profession! :)

    1. Thank you Jeff, he was a fun one to sculpt with all his extra arms ! LOL haven't decided which pod racer to build later this year, his is still in the running. They probably have one of two reasons, quick riches & fame, or adrenaline junkies, for me it was always the later, just difficult when you can no longer get that rush ! LOL
