"Such a large bounty for such a small package."

Well geez, if someone insulted me like that I might do some disintegrating myself. Oh, you were talking about the Child? Ok, never mind.

"Bounty hunting is such a complicated profession."

Yeah? Well so was putting you together, buddy.

Little is ever revealed about the man known only as The Client. From his words and his medallion he appears to be an Imperial of some sort, though nothing is explained. He does seem to have some knowledge of Mandalorians, and with his connection to Moff Gideon, perhaps he had something to do with The Night of a Thousand Tears as well. Like how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop, the world may never know.

"They said you were coming, they said you were the best in the parsec. Would you agree?"

Well, I wouldn't say that but I do have to say, there's a lot of cool custom casts of Star Wars stuff in the galaxy, more so than what you can find for DC or Marvel. I guess that's because with live action characters you can't get away as easily with something that doesn't have a decent likeness. I mean, I wouldn't have dared attempt this without a head that at least resembled Werner Herzog, but even better I found a great 3D cast of The Client's head on eBay, so it was just a matter of putting together the rest of his ensemble.

"Extract the necessary material and be done with it."

Sheesh, I can take a hint. So, to start we have the head I bought from Watto's Scrapyard. Along with that I used the upper torso and arms from a The Force Awakens Old Man Han, which was a fun adventure all on it's own trying to remove it from the lower torso, but the short collar was a perfect look, while the legs weren't. The lower torso and legs are from an A New Hope Rebel Fleet Trooper, while the coat was modified from a Black Series DJ Canto Bight figure with the fur from a DC Multiverse Steve Trevor coat added on. The medallion was a modified medal from the Yavin Luke. Finally, the camtono (yep, it's not your dad's ice cream maker anymore, Willrow) was another great 3D printed item I got from juicetincustoms on eBay. After that it was just a matter painting everything up. Normally, I don't spend as much time with shading on faces for superhero figures because I want them to look like they belong with a DCUC collection. But the new digital face scans Hasbro has for their Black Series figures have forced me to up my game, so hopefully people will see the likeness.

"A man of your skill should make short work of this."

Well, thanks for the vote of confidence, TC. Oh, yeah, you weren't talking to me. Well, I guess you aren't talking to anyone anymore anyway so...

"This is the way."

Thanks for looking.

FANTASTIC. I love Werner Herzog, and I was pretty sad that he had so little screen time. But man, he GNAWED the scenery in his episodes. Top notch job!

(in Werner Herzog's voice) You dared not to be a coward by using a head that didn't look like Herzog. You are a true artist, a man of much respect that even the real Werner Herzog would admire.
