Oh wow. I thought you cut the head short and glued it in the half cut off head of Vader. It's just the whole head. Cool!

@ OccasionallyCorrect: Thanks!

I made a mold of Vader's faceplate and made a greenstuff copy; I cut that down and curved it to fit the head. I used more greenstuff to fill in the gaps. For the left leg, I did the same , a mold with greenstuff, I cut out the calf area and added a bit of plastic rod and a paper clip as pistons. more greenstuff to smooth out the joints. Also cut down the left hand inner cloak to fit the new leg in and made it flap more. I also did Vader's head scar. Left hand is a cut down Space Marine hand, just cut down fitted to the rest of the arm with greenstuff.

@Bohemian73 To each his/her own! Thx for looking!

@oubobcat13 Thank you! 

Since I have 2 core sets, I painted them both up and can use either. Or alternatively, As Vader gets damaged, I replace him with the modded one. Win-win!

My second Vader will have an LED light saber, did the first Luke that way, but I think I can do better with the light.
