Pulpy's EMPIRE: Series 1 A New Hope Luke Skywalker So you may have noticed I'm one of those guys who doesn't have a tons of customs in my portfolio. This series of customs is why. I've always wanted 6 inch Star wars figures, and after a year or two of posting got started on these. I've worked on them on and off between other pieces, never posting when things were completed so that I could do them in series. Then the back series came out and shamed me into finishing these. With that said, I'm really excited to present my 6 inch Star Wars series: Pulpy's Empire! First off is Luke Skywalker as seen in A New Hope I sewed a shirt and did some paints on it to give it some extra life to it. He's a ML Bullseye buck with random Buffy sized arms and hands. From ball joints down, the legs were modified elseworlds' Pilot Green Lantern, cut off and dremilled to to fit Bullseye's ball joints. The boots and feet are from Chow Yun Fat's Crouching Tiger figure. (a perfect fit!!!) Saber Handle is a modified Starman staff - I think a tutorial is needed on this one, the staff supports 3 saber handles if cut right, all you have to do is see it in it! Trooper rifle made from fodder The head is a modified epic force-*side note*- if you are going to use this head add his above lip and below mouth moles, and it really helps to push the look because they are recognizable features.* I also cut in some extra hair detail. I'm really excited to finally post them, I know they're not perfect, but I've wanted them for so long, and wanted to finish them for so long that I'm really happy with them and I hope you like them! Thanks a lot for checking him out, and... May the force be with you! ![]() |

As for the sewing, I have to admit my wife helped me a lot, and I screwed up three other versions before I got this, but I do have a piece of advice for hand sewing this small. close and small seams, and never pull the needle fully through. Get a bunch a seams continuously on the needle, and when it gets full, almost pull it through pulling through most of the new seams you just made, and then line up a bunch more seams on the needle again, and repeat.
Did that make sense? I hope so.
