Just got my horsehair braids in from Woodman.................... HOLY COW!!! These things are sick!
Thanks Woody!
Oh really lets see EM!
You are almost there, bro. Looks like you'll be out here sooner than later. Need to get to making that vest for you. Oh, I'm kinda missing my ol' JP. Too late to get it back before you kill it?![]()
Man, I dont know that Ill ever part with this JP.![]()
My WB armor is in and awesome!!! Will be adding reviews once I'm not sick.
Updated reviews of BFUK shin tools and JP beacon and Wickedbeard armor and gauntlets... Enjoy!![]()
Psst.. Terry, I will work something out with you for you to get it back (the JP).... I hate the fact that it is sitting in the middle of my bedroom. It screws with me, it doesn't match, and i'm always stubbing my toe on it.
It's evil.......
evil
LOL
Mary should prolly not fall asleep tonight.... talkin bout my JP like that. lol
not my fault that its evil and hates me lol
this is lookin great! cant ait to see it done! and if i were to ever call a jet pack "sexy" yours would deff be the one!
Yeah, Terry and I refer to it affectionately as the "swamp pack".![]()
Somebody has probably said this before, but I'll throw it out there anyway. I was watching the SE last night and noticed that Boba's cape doesn't appear to be hanging from his shoulder, more like the top of the jet pack or something. Either that, or it's attached to the shoulder armor more from the back and closer to the helmet. Maybe it's common knowledge, I've never studied the SE Fett before.
Everything on the SE Fett changes so much, it's hard to keep track. I think I'm gonna just attach it via the collar stud method.![]()
Yeh theres a few different varients of the SE fett...and then theres a Stunt fett with the ESB helmet which Im going for ROTJ with ESB helmet
Thats the same as mine. lol
Im not chopping a hole in my JP![]()
Too my knowledge.... All the SE's use the ESB helm with ROTJ body and blaster.... but I could be wrong.
Here's some new WIP pics. (I know, my pouches are backwards lol)
Enjoy!
you are right the gloves look better in these pics...thinking about posting up my "naked" pics too...wifes coming back next weekend...Ill have her take some more now that i have my boots and gloves and gaunts are together...
and when you gonna get a proper bucket that pinch doesnt kill you?
Actually, I like the pinch. To me, it makes the helmet look angry.![]()
Sonik, love everything but especially like the weathering of the soft parts. Could you possibly describe in detail your "coffee ground weathering" technique you mentioned way back in this thread, and whatever additional weathering you used to get this awesome look? Thanks bro.
And more thing before I forget- in the pic above are those the GBH gloves you were going to upgrade to? Are they that much better than Evolution gloves? Thanks.
Yep, those are GBH's. They are a night/day difference from Evolutions' gloves (I have both). Would definetely recommend picking up a pair of the GBH gloves.
As for the coffee ground/kiwi technique.... If ya wanna gimme a ring, I can easily give ya walk-through on it. PM me and I'll give ya my digits.![]()
"Give ya my digits"... you're too much man! PM sent.
Sorry, that was alil 1993. lol
looking good buddy......
And resize your pics a LITTLE next time PLEASE...you know my connection is super slow on base here...like turtle slow
Bro totally lovin it Keep up the great work as it is coming along nicely.
Thanks, Gav.
Those stylus parts + Boby's tools = so, so sexy![]()
Sonik...I've been out of pocket for a while and just catching up on TDH stuff. Suit is looking great. Down to just the armor huh? Hey, I've got a question. How tall are you?
Hes larger looking in the pics huh
The boots and the bucket add at least a couple inches, yes?
P.S. Sonik, thanks for the mentoring Friday... I am attempting to weather the soft parts
today... the whole basement smells like coffee grounds now... LOL
Oh yeh coffee smell on the soft parts...he helped me with that too lol
and yeh boots add an inch my Evo boots are about an inch and a half thick
Really looking top notch there, Brother! Think you still might come out and stay with us a while?
Cheers
Terry,
I really hope so bruv. Im gonna be one upset puppy if I dont. lol
D,
No problem bruv. I took it as a helluva compliment.
F4R,
You da man!!!![]()
Unfortunately, no. Too busy with life, and tryin to get this 1st run of girth belts out. Once I get everyone else taken care of.... back to Fett.![]()
Well then I may beat you bruv! Never would have thought it either...
I have all my parts (but one... LOL)... all armor is painted and halfway weathered; jp is half painted; soft parts are half weathered.
My target completion date is May 1 since it's my first troop in a couple months and the one I've wanted to debut my Fett all along.
Sorry to hijack bruv...![]()
Not a problem. I'm gald to hear your Fett is comin along smoothly and cant wait to see your finished pics.![]()
