• You know the line •Bounty Hunting! Happy Friday y’all!Framing this shot was a lot of fun, and also challenging to get Mando to standout in su chi a tightly packed shot. Absolutely love this season one look and this new figure is really fun to mess around with. Weathered him a bit and swapped the helmet from the full Beskar version.Sorry no BTS today, but swipe for multiple versions and alternate stuff!I might be less active for a bit on here, but don’t take it personally, it’s not you, it’s me. Have a great weekend!•••••#toyphotography #themandalorian #bountyhunter #starwarstheblackseries by @ripik__tan

• Industry Night •Where are my restaurant people at!? Do you have a normal weekend, or are your days off scattered throughout the week? Do you work 50 hours over the course of 4 days? Do you hear the sound of order tickets printing in your sleep? If you work in this business, this photo is for you!Repainted New Republic security droid, waitin tables and slinging drinks. That tray is perfectly balanced for burger delivery. This one was in my head for a bit, glad to have done. Swipe for BTS!Have a great weekend y’all!86’d spotchka•••••#toyphotography #starwars #industrynight #starwarstheblackseries #customfigure by @ripik__tan

• Ah, Sith Spit! •Kyle Freakin Katarn coming at ya! I am beyond stoked to finally have this bad-Larry in the collection. I loved Jedi Outcast & Jedi Academy when I was growing up. Sound off in the comments who played these games back in the day?I actually did a full repaint on this guy including his face which I don’t normally do, but I’m trying to get more familiar with. He might not be perfect, but he looks the part now for sure.Haven’t seen Mando & Grogu yet, so I’ll be playing it safe online until I do. Swipe for BTS and have a great weekend y’all!•••••#toyphotography #kylekatarn #starwarstheblackseries #customfigure #jedioutcast by @ripik__tan

• Dead Man Walking •I found Imperial Crosshair last week at a collector shop and spent a little time weathering his armor. I actually think I made him look the way he does in animation. Still really enjoyed Bad Batch and the story they told for this character.Swipe for BTS!•••••#toyphotography #starwars #thebadbatch #starwarstheblackseries by @ripik__tan

• Shadow Lord •I made this whole scene based around the light underneath the floor ramp panels, and ironically, the light died in the middle of the photoshoot 😂 It’s featured in the next couple slides, but I ended up liking this first one best, as it accentuates the shadows of the Shadowlord.With the Maul series wrapped up, I’m definitely looking forward to season 2 already. Hopefully it’s not years away.Sorry, no BTS today. Have a great weekend y’all!•••••#toyphotography #starwarstheblackseries #maulshadowlord #darthmaul by @ripik__tan

• Execute Order 66 •Happy May the 4th! Here’s a fun crossover I’ve been holding onto for a bit, Jedi General Logan, about to show some clones what happens when you submit to you inhibitor chip programming. This is a custom CW Jedi, that ended up becoming Jedi Wolverine, and I think he fits well.Hope you all have a nice Star Wars filled day!Swipe for BTS!•••••#toyphotography #starwars #wolverine #maythe4thbewithyou #customfigure by @ripik__tan

• Ahh, Mando! •Happy Mando Monday! Here is the newest release of his season one look. I did some light weathering on the suit & armor, and I also swapped the helmet for the shiny Beskar version. I like that color better, even though I don’t remember his helmet ever changing.I was able to set up my (finally painted) cave diorama last week in the sun through my living room window and get a few shots of Mando, here. Definitely looking forward to the new movie next month.I hope you’re all doing fantastic and having a ton of fun with this hobby! I know algorithms/posting/engagement can get people down, but if you can get yourself past thinking about numbers and where you fit in, it’ll do you well. Try to stay focused on just your craft. This platform seems to be in a rather lackluster place in terms of sharing the artist’s work that we follow and are here for. I can honestly say I’m having more fun than ever with toy photography and constantly looking forward to more projects, whether it’s a photo, a build, kitbash, painting something, trying a new technique. And I hope you all are feeling the same. You’ve all been putting out some great work this year•••••#toyphotography #mandomonday #starwarstheblackseries #themandalorian by @ripik__tan
