Star Wars Custom Of The Week: ROTJ Drumheller Harp By Customs For The Kid

By Bespin refugee on 2024-12-01 in Custom Toys & Art


ROTJ Drumheller Harp
By Customs For The Kid [3-D Design by Jeff Thompson

" One of our favorite scenes from the Original Trilogy Star Wars films was always Jabba's Palace, with its ambitious creature designs, outlandish sets, scum, and villainy. Over the years our Jabba's Throne Room display has gotten closer and closer to being completed, and these two additions bring us closer to that goal.

The Drumheller Harp was sculpted by our friend Jeff Thompson and is available to purchase on the Outer Rim Traders store. Darth Daddy assembled and covered the Harp in a base coat of silver. To achieve the rusted effect, it was covered in a wet coat of sealer and then sprinkled with cinnamon. Once the sealer dries, the cinnamon is secured to the surface and won't wear off. It also has a pleasant smell! After that, all I had to do was string up the instrument with grey thread. I applied a brown wash to the thread to get the color where I wanted it. I also sculpted the streamers onto each thread and the bar the cymbal rests on. I then did a final pass of paint to clean up and get all the details locked in.

The second custom creation was an unnamed extra who populated Jabba's throne room standing next to Boba Fett. Some refer to him as Dranyam Trebor, but as of yet he has no official name. He sported a red jumpsuit and crossed bandoliers. We assembled him out of parts we had laying around. The body is a repainted Legacy Collection Bane Malar. The head came from a container we had lying around full of parts, so we're not exactly sure who it used to be. The pike was made from two parts that were left over from previous projects. I then painted the pike to unify the color pallet.

We still have a few more characters to make before our Jabba's Throne room is complete, but we're getting there. Stay tuned!

Lando Calrissian (Star Wars Rebels)painted byElias (Customs For The Kid)"We recently received the HasLab - Ghost on our front step, and ever since, Star Wars Rebels has been on our minds. The Star Wars Rebels 3.75 inch offerings were slim, so weve been doing our best to fill the collection out. Our friend Angry Raccoon Miniatures created a beautiful Lando Calrissian sculpt and were big Lando fans, so we needed to have him represented on our shelf.Dad took advantage of the holiday weekend and helped me out with creating a post for the blog. Dad purchased this model a while back with hopes of adding it to my shelf, but a busy work schedule prevented him from painting up a lot of Angry Racoon Minatures models we have sitting in a drawer waiting for paint. We have quite a lot to get to still. I grabbed a model too but mine has a ways to go still. Dad came just short of finishing this figure so I hopped in at the last minute and painted the eyes, white lines on the shirt and did minor touchups in one or two spots where the paint went rogue.We highly recommend picking these up. These action figures are as simple as trim, assemble, and paint!"Check out more images of their custom below in our GALLERY!

Captain Bombardier (The Mandalorian)ByElias (Customs For The Kid)"For our first fully sculpted project of 2025, weve created Captain Bombardier played by Jack Black! This action figure was a commission, so unfortunately we wont be keeping it, but it was so much fun to bring to life!The base of this figure was a Movie Heroes Series Jek Porkins. I had to sand away every feature of the flight suit, and sculpt the New Republic Captain uniform. I sculpted the head in ZBrush studying several pictures of Jack Black so I could really capture his likeness. Likeness is a very subtle thing, and even the smallest difference can keep your sculpt from conveying the identity of your subject, but in the end I think I captivated the cheer of Mr. Black."
