You are on fire with these Rui!  :o

The Twi'lek is (so far) my favourite, painted or not! :)

Thank you Sir Dryden. :)
Its not dificult to do it. Leave the head extensions for the last.
Use just two rolls of GS, drill 2 holes on the head, put a small pin in each one as the base for the GS rolls, press them on the pins and then bend them to the proper position.
Push the Excess of the GS on the head and shape them as extensions.
Last but not east use two small balls of GS for the hears and shape them to the proper size.
Hope this helps a bit. :)

Thanks Orc and Agis. :)

Agis, your thread is certainly my inspiration. ;)

I may do another Sullustan this time shorter and fat. ;)

Dinohunterpoa, i think not all Sullustans would look the same. Some would be tall, others thin, others short and fat, etc. Thats the reason i made him this way. ;)

EXACTLY! Very well done!

This time a TwiŽlek female fighter for my crew/unit. Again a Crooked Dice figure with GS.
Painting soon.
Comments and ideas are welcome. :)

LOVELY!!!  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

Ok, we all have a soft spot for female Twi'leks... be them exotic dancers, dashing pilots or scantily dressed Force users... :D

Elk, I think that's from Last Jedi. I'm not sure though. I spent half of the movie with my eyes closed, slowly shaking my head, whispering "What the fuuuu**"...
