Man, those look fantastic.

Any chance at brighter and larger pictures of the Vader facemask?

The Yoda looks great!

The Maul pose is very striking. It doesn't look like the typical mannequin-like pose. I think the way you have the arms slightly raised gives that "gunfighter" look like he's ready to draw his lightsaber!

May I ask what the source was for your Yoda?

Thanks.

Sure, the yoda head is sculpted by Cyberman on the RPF. My only role was basicly giving critiques along the way and coaxing him to not quit sculpting until it was done.
He is a very, very talented sculptor, but what makes him stand out from the rest of other sculptors in our hobby is that he is open to critique during the development and is willing to keep the sculpt going until it is truly finished.
That is so rare. Photo comparisons and all. His willingness to collaborate with other artists and go back and make changes (sometimes major ones) is why his stuff turns out so damn good.

The Vader helmet is a GH #4 of 13 from his first run painted by me and is going up for auction I think starting tomorrow night.

Here's pics of mine now with a body. It's made like a puppet so it's totally posable. His limbs are kind of like kermit's. I wanted him to have as much of the look and versitility of the screen puppet but had to sacrifice a bit of functionality that the original had (no facial animation).
Still tweaking.
You can see the finished outer robe but it hasn't been weathered at all. That should be fun to do if I could only find the time.
Also, see the JY thread on the RPF about anyone interested in getting one of these robes.
