Custom Star Wars The Black Series ARC Trooper Fives

            "I am not just another number, none of us are!"

After 4 months of on-and-off work, I finally finished my Black Series 6-Inch ARC Trooper Fives from Star Wars The Clone Wars. I had a ton of fun making this guy, and it was really refreshing to make something other than LEGO for once. He started off as a plain white P2 trooper, then I sculpted all the ARC armor and pauldron on top of that. 
The kama is made from laminated(?) fabric I got from JoAnn's, then I painted it up. The belts are fabric, the ammo packs are sculpted as well as the functioning holsters. 
The chest and pauldron were sculpted and painted. On the arms I sculpted the raised, riveted parts (right arm) and the wrist rocket + mount (left) along with the buttons, then painted it up. The backpack was also sculpted from scratch. 
I had the most fun with the helmet. Fives' helmet design is pretty unique and I'm glad I didn't screw up the paint job. The antenna is a cast from Marvel Custom Figures on Instagram. 

Accessories for Fives include:
- A beautifully painted head sculpt by DaLastPrime (see other photos for this masterpiece).
- Painted DC-15a
- Painted DC-15s
- Custom sculpted and casted DC-17 blaster pistols.

For more views of Fives, check out my Instagram album of him. I didn't want to post all the pics I have of him here because I didn't want to flood everyone's streams lol

So, what do you guys think? I'd love to hear all your feedback!
