Jedi Temple

Hi Friends. A late May the Fourth Special.   . I made a Light sabre mod i saw in a youtube clip.

Thanks for watching

Eph






























Thanks to the Guy who show it to me. Don´t know his name. The mod looks like better in real. I really need a modern camera.  

This is so rad! The set looks great, the light sabers are awesome, and I love the action of the fight! Does the head have moveable eyes? They look perfect for the force choke expression. So love it!

Wow, nice job! Everything here comes together so well, from the set, to the posing, to the costumes , and, of course, the lightsabers!

Thanks so much, Rev. This is a facepool Headsculpt. I really want a good female HS with a PERS. But she has no movable eyes. Here You can see the HS in better quality. I was hiding the wires in her cloak in a later version. You can see here what i want to do. Ther´s a blue refection of the light sabre in her eyes. I saw this effect in a fight scene and want to show this with a figure.

Thank You very much Sky. Maybe that mod is something for You ? If i can do everyone can do. I have the tecnical skills of a chimpanse.  






and a better Quality Maul Pic with the mod.

This is awesome. How very cool, Ephi. Love it. The set is neat, as well. And as mentioned, the Facepool’s head sculpt is perfect for this. Great action sequence.

Thanks for showing how you did it, Ephiane --- though, I have to be honest, I'm so un-technical, I still have no idea what I'm looking at.

Yay!

You always have such creative uses for those facepools expression heads!

My favourite shot is the wall jump by Mr. Maul, and that last pic.

Alyo like the fabric you used for the Jedi, very Jediesque.

Always awesome to see that LED Technique utilized, a regular transparent rod with only one LED at the end never will have the strong neon plasma look you achieved.

It's exactly the method mentioned in cyeung's LED Lasso Thread: https://onesixthfigures.forumotion.com/t5647-led-lasso-small-project#79892

Okay... that was cool!

I Love the floating Jedi scene! Hahaha!

Those electronics are really cool too!

uh, wow! excellent pics from you again…
love the dynamics, esp. the ones with a „flying touch“: this wall jump and the force choke… just amazingly done!!!
love her attire (less a fan of that head, but I guess it fits in)
and of course I am impressed by this lightning feature… I have been having the little batteries from fishing accessories on my list for a long time, but I guess, THIS is finally a project to get them for, with this LED filament… I have to look into this further and see whether I can get it to work.
really cool

You clearly have technical skills of a much more superior kind than you give yourself credit for. I'm glad to see your awesome light up "laser swords" in all their glory and in action. It is very impressive, and better than any alternative method of doing them. Very nicely presented, too, with that sequence of photos making up the whole scene. Cool female character, nice use of Maul, and that statue really sells the temple. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Ovy, I wasn't sure if it was the same technique or not (see, that is how non-technical I am XD ).

And this scenario reminds me a bit of that one fan-made Maul video from a while ago:

Brilliant , imaginative , and technically clever post . The photos got more impressive as they progressed .

Thank You for the comments Friends.
Thanks Ovy for the clip.
I can´t give You here a better tutorial than the clip. All i can do is share my expierience. You need not all the expensive tools the Man in the clip has. I did it, and have nothing of this.

At first order the parts. I ordered from china. And i really wondered the parts came fast and they really worked.

You dont need a soldering station for 150 $ . remove the rubber from the end of the wires you want to connect. put the blank ends togehther and use the shrink hose on the ends. Heaten the shrink hose with a zippo - done.
For a light version You dont need to cut wires. I do this because of the diameter. i want a smaller diameter wire. So i cut the old white wire and fix a smaller diameter wire on it.
You can also remove the wires from the socket. So You dont have to soldering them together .








This is a half an hour light version jedi  








At last this is the work of 20 minutes for a really cool light effect. There´s so much potential in this. You can do this mod togehter with a backpack. So the Batterie can be hidden there. Many Star Wars Bountyhunters wear backpacks. Or maybe this evil.... Thing with a green light version?

Necrons!!!!!!

Wow that mad post apocalyptic Sith looks beautiful in his own very special way.

These Necrons even exist as acton figures, but not 1/6 scale yet.

thanks a lot for the "how to" pics - that will help a lot!!!

1. Use of that facepool headsculpt - brilliant for the theme !
2. Light saber DIY - if I didn't know better I would have thought they were photoshopped !
3. Jedi Temple dio - less is more and just perfect ! It's not taking my attention away from the duel !

@Ephiane
Very nice picture series, as always. I really love how you used the Facepool head in the different situations. The versatility of this head is great.

The outfits, the dio and the light saber mods are also perfect!    

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the additional information on this incredible mod. The makeshift Sith (?) bald Zod looks excellent with it in his hand, and the backpack solution is great.

Thank You very much, Friends.
The Apocalyptic Guy is just for to show the idea of the " hidden electric " in a backpack. I choose him for that because of his broad shoulders. A sith / Jedi Character with a backpack of that size has to be massive....






Thanks for the " Necron" pictures Ovy. Damned....the Necron is really cool.. in my mind i can see a finished 1:6 figure of him.  another new project i never finish ?  



Oh, i made some blaster fire experiments... SW Friends, You really need this 10 $ lights . Not only for your jedis, for the bountyhunters and troopers as well...

Great looking diorama and action photos!

The blaster fire experiment worked very well. I assume this is still the same technique?

The head works better than I thought for scenes. Well spotted and implemented.

Real illumination on the lightsabers is just great. Excellent photos
