Mallatobuck is Chewbacca's wife from theStar Wars Holiday Special. Malla was made from a POTJ Chewie w/ holo chess table head, Chewie as Boushh's bounty body & Hoth Chewie arms. These were basically parts I had left over from other Chewbacca customs. |

I had to cut the arm pegs off the Hoth Chewie arms and glue on the arm pegs from the Chewie as Boushh's bounty arms. Using a dremel I grinded off the bandolier and satchel. Originally, I was going to make Malla without the apron, but it just looked like another Chewie. |

The bottom of the apron is made from the front part of a Mace Windu tunic/skirt. The top part of the apron was made from Sculpey. Once the Sculpey cured, I glued all the pieces together and painted the figure. There are actually, several different shades of brown washed over Malla's body. Once the paint dried I glued the head in place. I dry brushed some yellow paint on the forehead of Malla, and also dry brushed some white across the nose and around the mouth. Once the paint dried, I finished her off with a coat of Testor's dull coat. |
