This weekend at Daxie Boy Toys I revealed my newest custom of Jabba the Hutt and Salacious Crumb in the new Star Wars Black Series 6" scale. I decided to make them as soon as I heard we were getting Boba Fett at SDCC! A big thanks to Gino Ybarra for helping me out.
The biggest compliment/question I kept getting this weekend was...is that the Sideshow Jabba?
Ha Ha, nope that is mine!
Below are a bunch of pictures of the figures and underneath those are some work-in-progress pictures of how I made them. There is a also a sneak peek below of the next figure we are working on.
Jabba's arms are poaseable
Salacious Crumb is fully poseable
Here is a DC Universe Batman for scale
Gamorrean Guard in progress
Jabba started out in foam
Next I covered him and shaped him using Magic Sculpt
Salacious was sculpted using Magic Sculpt
Now I added my own mix of Sculpy for the detail
I am painting Jabba
Gino is working on the base
Awesome job with this. At first I mistakenly thought this was another blog I follow - mightyjabba.com!
ReplyDeleteThanks for telling me about this, Ben. Amazing job, Joe! I put up a post about it on my site. Let me know if you ever want to sell it or make more! :)
