Up next: Backplate, where I will go into GREAT detail on the painting, masking, and weathering process! Stay tuned!
 
Thank you so much guys! I believe I am the only one who has completed a Fett using ALL my armor (there's been one or two who have completed Fett's using a few of my pieces). After I post pics of the backplate, I'll show completed pics with me in the armor all together :D
 
Bauhaus gold, just like you said. (y)
For the armor plates I went with the US medium green 34102 from the bottle (airbrushed) as a base (it was too olivey though) and then misted it ever so lightly with Tamiya's AS-17 Dark green.. I think the color came out just about right, I'm pretty happy with it. Thanks again so much for your tips and advice on the paint, bro :cheers
 
Thanks again guys :D I hope this thread will help those of you who might need to know which direction to go with their armor and what steps to take. I'm just passing along the favor for those who have done the same for me that I learned from ;)
 
It's a very minor thing but isn't the white detail of the center chest diamond supposed to be an added insert and not painted directly on the plate?
 
Hmmm..strange, I looked over all the ref pics and couldn't tell. Not saying it's not there, I just never noticed anything like that before. Is it a really thin piece that sits inside? Is there a ref pic anywhere that you could post? Any info would be great. (y)
 
I think they both have it.
Although, that pic looks lie it's molded on or at least the paint was thick enough to hide the seam.
 
Wow you guys are ON it! I've never seen that picture before. That's what I love about this community is the crazy attention to detail which fuels our incentive to learn and get better. Great catch on that. That'll be an easy detail to fix/add (y)
