"It's in the frakking ship!" - Ex.O. Saul Tigh

[JonnyBoomBoom]

Next to The Walking Dead, BSG is my favorite TV series. Looking around my parts bin, I came across a duplicate concept Obi-wan head, and immediately thought of Saul Tigh. And then I thought, since Star Wars has the Expanded Universe, I thought it would be pretty cool to have sort of a BSG Expanded Universe, where the crew had more modern, armored variation of their uniform.

I realized there was something a bit off about him..it's what the French call, a certain I don't know what. He just didn't capture that John McCainness. I gave him an eye patch, a bit darker eyebrows, some sideburns, and viola!

Wow, looks great. He definitely fits in the Star Wars universe. Could be an Imperial, a rebel, or some sort of local military/security type. I recognize the head of course, but where does the torso come from?

Wow, that Sandtrooper looks awesome. What is the recipe?

Frakking good idea - nice work.

Great work, Seeing this just reminds me that There is still no 3 3/4 scale Battlestar figures and how badly I want them

Thanks for the compliments. The Sandtrooper is from the VTC, with a Bust-Ups helmet. Here's an old thread with details:

Love the updated Saul w/eye patch...definitely looks the part. Nice choice of paint; love the chrome-like shine to the blue you used on his outfit.

The torso is from a VTC Senate Guard. (I picked a few up for $5 at Five Below.)
The arms and legs are from a Bespin Guard
Head and hands are concept Obi-wan.
