I've had an extra Hux for a while I wanted to make a Tarkin from someday but still hoping Hasbro makes one for me (like I waited on Batwoman forever paid off). Tarkin has such a distinct iconic face. Castingcave has a good cast of Tarkin I'd probably pick up if I did make him(at least they did). But overall nice work!

Grand Moff Tarkin


Hey Savant, How you make those Ribbons on the Chest - The top row of six pale blue squares and the three reds and yellows below ... that's pretty impressive thing to do and I like the way you color it and did a great job making it.

Doctor Fate and Fate of the World ... are the same person ... the reason for two accounts is to add more photographs to this forum.

Excellent job. Honestly, at first glance, I thought that was real cloth!!!

Thanks for the kudos...I lost track of that Tarkin head (I was gonna do the same thing) but found a suitable replacement from the fodder bin

Nice choice on the matte paint finish. I think that did the trick!
