captain rex pf - PHASE II armor

this turned out to be a pretty involved custom, but its one of those projects that kept evolving as it went along. captain rex was easily my favorite character to come out of the clone wars, dude is a bad ass. his phase II armor perfectly conveys his attitude and individuality - I really wanted to try and capture that

- converted cody phase II into rex phase II helmet
- repositioned left arm
- straightened right wrist, sculpted hand holding pistol, lengthened pistol grip
- separated left hand from arm and added magnetized key, sculpted hand holding pistol, lengthened pistol grip
- repositioned right leg (moved inward)
- narrowed knee guards and made them symmetrical
- sculpted new pauldron with pouches
- made new belt and kamas, shortened holster belts
- repaint including base touch up

thanks for checking it out

This is a massive improvement over Sideshow's choice of pose/weapons. I passed on this PF but had it looked like this I'd have been all over it. Excellent work!

That is freaking great custom. Do you have a 3D printer? The pieces you made are perfect

Awesome! That is beyond great work, it's a masterpiece.
I have done some customizing but not anything that would come close to this work.
