MOW Jet Pack ESB Build-Up!

Like GCNgamer said it's mounted a little low, but other than that it looks great. I may have to try using Rub'n buff as a base coat.
 
Well, thanks to Jango's kid I realize my pack it s bit green. I would do a repaint but I can't get enough of the color I need for at least 3-4 weeks. So I am moving forward with the weating of the pack. I plan on a few washes but here is the first wave of weathinging.

I have not really touched the rocket as I don't really know what to do on it.
 
I repainted the entire pack the proper color. But I forgot my cammera.

I am going to install the light and post pics tomorrow. :cheers
 
I repainted my pack the correct color green. Instead of a total strip down I airbrushed the new color on top of the medium green. I also added the beacon light. It is now complete!

Thanks again folks and a big thanks to Jango's Kid. He pointed me at the right color. I almost cryed when I found out I had the wrong color. But the repaint went well and the medium green under the RLM gives it a nice contrast.

On the dark weathering Tamaya makes these "wheathering Packs" that look like make-up compacts. They are excellent.
 
WOW, WOW, WOW!!! :wacko

That color did it! It really is perfect now. You should be very happy with that one. Great work (y)

What did you use on the endcaps for the jet nozzles? Is that more rub n buff?

And what was the final color you used?
 
I thought about putting a gas system in it but it is way beyond me. I had to put it on that in order to get it in the light, we are loosing daylight fast up here.

The newest green is RLM 62 green.

:cheers
 
Looks great CMAnavy! Hopefully in January I'll have some cash for my jet pack!

Can you post an image of the other side of the pack, specifically how the divers belt attaches?

Thanks

Phil

Sure it might be a day or two before I can get to it. I used some chicago screws to attach the belt. Two holes in the belt and two in the pack, insters screws and thats it.
