The inspiration for this was Zartanman's awesome custom of Darth Starkiller (Luke Skywalker). He also came up with a cool "what if" story. Vader kills the Emperor and then searches for his twin children and raises them.
Darth Luke & Darth Leia - a set on Flickr My story is that Vader is able to turn Luke to the dark side at Bespin. Trains him in secret and then together defeat the Palpatine at the Battle of Endor as father and son. I used the same basic figures as Zartanman but with some changes. I used movie Warmachine for the body, the Luke Skywalker head from the Target Ranor set, a TIE Fighter's helmet, and General Grievous cape. I went with a simple gloss black to match the helmet and to go with his daddy's suit. Like father like son. Thanks, Z-man, for an awesome idea. UPDATE 1-5-11 I finally thought of a name! Actually, my wife did. DARTH LUCAS!!! HAHA!!! Two more pics! It shows how he got the helmet. Also I like that maybe, Lucas is so brutal that he just decapitates any poor pilot just for the helmet just like how daddy would force choke and officer for failure.

Years ago, I thought about Luke joining his father on the darkside and this is exactly as I envisioned Luke would look like, even down to the Tie fighter helmet. Great work on the custom. Very inspirational, now stop scanning my brain for ideas.

Like I said, it was Zartanman that came up with it. It really is an awesome idea and makes sense too.

Very well done, paintjob, parts, etc... but strictly IMO, it looks like the SW/Transformers line, in 3 3/4" scale.
