Captain Antilles
Recipe and picture by Jason Weatherly
He is made from a Rebel Fleet Trooper helmet, Space Quest head, Dagobah Luke chest, Endor Han coat and arms, and Ponda Baba torso and legs.
On the head, I glued on a chin strap and painted the straps. I cut the coat down into a waist jacket. Capt. Antilles jacket has a wide collar like Han's coat. Also this kept me from having to put the insignia on the jacket. I think most people have customized the insignia the wrong anyway. I know he is a Capt. and the tech. journals only show 3 dots in a "v" for a captain, but watch the scene closely and see if he does not have 5 dots in an "x" and let me know. I painted the shoulders of the jacket dark brown and the rest of the jacket and arms khaki brown. I also painted the shirt green. I added black stripes down the legs of the pants (you can barely see them).
