Pandora - A Spud's Customs project

It's nice to see you have some time to work on these guys again, has is the progress on iknimaya going? I really can't wait to see you repaint an Ikran.

I go through little bouts where I really want to work on Iknimaya and then other times I want to focus on figures.  Its really hard to work on both simultaneously because it takes a completely different mindset to work on each respectively.  When I finish Mo'at, I'll finish Eytukan then I may take a break from figures to work on Iknimaya because that'll be a good pause point for the figures.  I've actually done quite a bit on Iknimaya since you saw it last I just haven't gotten any pics of it in awhile.

All that work your doing sounds amazing brother, it is so cool that the movie has inspired you to do this :D

Thanks man. :)

I have completed Mo'at's shall top and I did her queue as well where is splits and goes over each shoulder to join in the front at her chest.  It turned out amazing.  I'm now working on her hair which I am again using embroidery thread for.  It will take a couple of layers to give it the body it needs to be movie accurate so I'll make sure I take pictures of the process for you guys.

sounds great man !

Ok all the difficult and challenging tasks related to Mo'at are complete.  Now its just down to details work like her bracelets and the other part of her headdress that hangs down in front.

Here's some shots of her hair, loincloth, and finished shall.









I am extremely pleased with this figure so far. :)

Once again, Irayo for sharing, that is just amazing!! That is an awesome Mo'at :D

Mo'at is now complete. :)
These pictures still show the two strands in front as unpainted but they are painted now so she is done.  I have to say that this is probably my greatest accomplishment since Hiyik, both of them. ;)

Hope you guys like her.








I LOVE THIS FIGURE!!!! :D

That is awesome!! Once again Irayo on letting us see her!, that is a great accomplishment.

Thanks Wind. :)

Here's the completed shots of my Mo'at figure. :)





Now I have to work on Eytukan and try to make him look just as cool.

That is still just amazing!! and yes you cant leave Mo'at  alone, she needs to have Eytukan by her side!  

^Spud I see you bro...that is so awesome, I love how she came out. Can not wait to see what you do with her hubby to improve him!

Thanks guys. :)
I already have Eytukan painted, have for quite awhile but last night I took off his hair in preparation to redo it with embroidery thread.

the thread just takes it all to a whole new level, look forward to seeing him finished. :)

That it does my friend :)

what next spud, tiny glass eye balls? :D

Hmmmm..... You never know man. ;)

I put nothing past you ;) your customs are 1st rate.

It means a lot man. Thank you. :)

So Eytukan is looking pretty bitchin' I must say. I got all the painting done on his loincloth and shoulder ornamentation and I'm about halfway through with his hair and it looks so much better than the factory hair. I'm so glad that I decided to not just go with the factory hair.  I still have to make his earrings out of wire and make the beaded strands coming down from his torso wrap to his loincloth.  With any luck I should have him finished tonight.  I've been taking pictures as I go along so I'll have to get those posted for you guys. :)

Sounds amazing tsmukan!!!! Can't wait to see him!

cant wait to see him! earrings for a 4.25" figure, can't even imagine how tiny those are!

Eytukan
Here's some pics of Eytukan both finished and during his transformation.  I redid his hair and some accessories.  Like all my customs he had to start out bald.  Then I had to take some ears from a Tsu'tey figure since his were molded into his factory hair.




I was also painting his clothing as I was going along.












They make a great pair. :)





THE CLAN IS EPIC AND STILL GROWING!!!!!  :shock: 



Today I started another female Na'vi character who will be named Kina which in Na'vi translates to "seven" and since she is the 7th female Na'vi I've made its very fitting.  I'm basing her off the Na'vi that is behind Grace when she gets disconnected after the destruction of Hometree.  I'd post a screenshot but I can't find one.

WOW!!! He did come out well! Now your clan has its leader  and it is getting huge thank you for sharing this, your talent is outstanding :) Can't wait to see how this evolves over time.
