Now add some folds and blend everything together.

Time for the outer robe. I cut 2 mirror pieces of Super Sculpey.

This is where they fit on the figure.

I started with the right side of the robe. I removed the other piece so not to squish it while adding details to this piece. Using the wooden tools, I again added folds to simulate flowing material.

If you don't like what you see, just add more Sculpey and start again.

Time to repeat the procedure for the left side. I am almost done. You will notice Yoda's toes have been chopped off from his right foot.

Since I noticed only at this step that his foot was pointing in the wrond decision, I decided to chop and fix the problem with extra Sculpey.

I made a completely new foot and pressed it on top of the old. Now it makes more sense.

You should of seen my face why I noticed it was upside down after finishing the robe detail - LOL.

To hide the error I also added an extra piece of Super Sculpey to make a better corner.

 

The original border was where you see the dotted lines.

Ahh, now I am finished and happy with the final result. Now for the fun part - Painting :)

August 26, 2001

I found colors that matched the hands and robe. I used a dry brush technique with a darker brown to add weathering in the same style hasbro did on the original. I also added a lighter color for the toenails to make them stand out more.

And here is a preview of Yoda in his jedi Council environment. Looks pretty cool.

Just for fun I thought I would show you how silly the original yoda looks like sitting next to a custom yoda in a proper sitting position.

Now the Jedi Council is complete and I can take my Diorama Phase 2 pictures :)

Do you want to make your own Jedi Council Custom Yoda at home?
