The lighting is very well done here

Well, I think the lighting is very good, but the creation is probably good too, so I think you should have taken a picture or two with normal lighting revealing the techniques and shapes. Sadly though, this would still not be an amazing creation, because most people don't know what's the point and because it only has a small build portion with little or even no action at all. If you put it on a vignette or even a diorama, it would be awesome, even if the people hadn't seen how good the Maul is. Remember - you build for yourself, so why not make yourself a scene that you may enjoy even after you build it? A fig, even a good one, is not really much.

I mainly chose the black background to create a sense of darkness and mystery, however I must agree with you about the difficulty in seeing the legs. The main pic was purposely darkened with a mist effect to lure the viewers in to this creation and see more. Guess they couldn't see much, huh? Also, the "albino anorexic sith chick" that you speak of is actually Asajj Ventress. I can see how her and Savage Oppress get their names mixed up :P Anyways, thanks for the advice :)

The lighting here really hurts your presentation. It looks like the legs are black, but it's hard to tell because the background is...black. The dim lighting does at a sort of truck stop bar feel to the whole presentation, but I'm not sure that was your intent. I would really like to get a better look at those legs of his. "his brother Savage Opress". Really? I thought Savage Opress was the albino anorexic sith chick. Shows what I know. Attack!

You lucky dog. Darth Maul is my favorite character, and I liked his return. I actually didn't ming the spider legs too much, and I really don't like his new legs. They make him way too tall for the proportion to be right with me. His arms are too short now and his legs are too beefy looking. In my opinion, he should have just had Darth Vader type legs. And I know he really has no need to wear cloths now, but would it kill him to have some sith robes intead of that awful neck thing and just gloves? He looks naked without any sort of cloth in that area. You did a nice job with this, though. I just had to get my rant out.

Nice job! The spider legs are great!

I have read that comic a while back; I think it was in one of the Star Wars Tales volumes, but I don't remember which. In the Clone Wars episode, Maul eventually has just two robotic legs, as seen in the comic, but he is first found like a spider by Savage Oppress.

Very nice! I haven't taken the time to watch the episode, but he still looks pretty menacing. Btw, a few years ago there was a comic that came with two action figures (Darth Maul and Owen Lars). In the comic, Darth Maul had, not spider legs, but legs similar to General Grievous'. Just thought you might want to look into that. :)

Yeah, I completely understand his that isolation caused his insanity, I just feel that it ruined Darth Maul's image of being a chill Sith Lord ;) Thanks for checking this out!

Fantastic work here!! I knew maul lived in a lot of fan fiction an what not, but when my girl friend who watches the show told me he ACTUALLY came back I was super excited ha

While your right that the new crazy feel they gave to Maul doesn't work with the old character, it makes total sense. It's been a round about 10 years since his "death" and now he lives allow on a junk planet killing people for food and knowing that his life used to be great! He was apprentice to one of the most powerful Sith, he had a promising life and he had legs :P But now all that's been taken away from him and he's gone insane. All he wants is revenge because his life has been ruined. Anyone would do the same if they lived like that for 10 years! Anyway you've done an amazing job on upgrading him :D Nice work ;)

Great photos but,I think a very accurate CW darth Maul can only be acheived by non-purism still, very good .
