it looks ok as you were staying with a style, but i think the cool factor would be pretty high with a decent artistic paint job.

Star Wars 3 3/4 inch figure custom Luke A-Wing.

Hi guys, a few years ago I really got into making custom Star Wars figures.

The first was an experiment really, I ended up doing this Luke Skywalker Pilot from a really old wrecked figure I had for spares. I wanted to show the character in the traditional green A-Wing costume with a few additional parts added. I stayed with the simple single tone look in my paint apps to stay true to the simple colouring of the vintage figure line. 

A coat of primer, then matt 117 green to the body. The original chest box was sanded flat and some kit bashed parts added to it, matt black 33 added. The vest was then painted with a medium grey. The visor was made from a piece of green plastic I found laying around, and a helmet mike was made from a bent pin with the end painted black.
