    Almost there!!!

    I'm soooo close! Only a few items left! As you can see I need to finish the rocket, the helmet, and I need my gauntlets which are on order. My blaster is in the mail, and my vest I have a feeling will be coming very soon. The rest is pretty much completed minus a little weathering!

    Enjoy 8):

    Well yes and no. I did base color, he did magic, and then I did damage.....but mostly DM did magic.....all the different shades really make the armor.

    Great looking suit! You need to gain a little weight though, you look kinda 'flat'.

    Re: Almost there!!!

    Ok here's an update. I almost have everything finished. Thank you very much to Batninja spending sometime with me on Sunday we finished up the velsro attachment to my vest. I also knocked out some small things that needed to get done. Now I am about 9 steps away from finishing it up. The pics you are about to see have a few things missing and need tweaking and here they are:

    1. I have two other 2 Studs for the collar, but left them at Darth Millers place

    2. I need to weather the flight suit, gloves, and spats

    3. I need to better hide the battery box for the chest LED's

    4. I need a to add a little more black to the base of the Rocket

    5. I need to add either velcro or foam behind the knee pads to reduce the slipping down my legs factor

    6. .... I need Gauntlets....and a helmet

    7. I am going to adjust the harness to bring the JP up a bit in the back. Its down too far.

    8. The Cod and Kidney armor was riding a little low so I'm going to tighten that too.

    9. Call Ghost Busters cause there is a ghost orb floating around my left arm in that first pic!!!!!

    Now, please, if you see something I don't POST!! Let me know so I can work it out!! Any suggestions and comments are welcome! Thanks!!

    Re: Almost there!!!

    this is going to be so good once you weather that jumpsuit.

    go roll around on the floor of a die casting plant.


    it'll never look clean again

    I'm going to have Darth Miller help me with the weathering. I got all the base colors on my MS1 yesterday.

    Re: Almost there!!!

    I really want to go, but my wife and I are very close to having our 2nd baby so I don't see it happening. But I am going to make All-Con in March. And if there is another local Con between now and then I'll try to make it.

    Re: Almost there!!!

    As Requested Base colors added to MS1 helmet. Doing the SE Fett do this will be ESB helmet:

    Panzer Olive Green
    Caboose
    RLM73
    Brunswick Green (Aka Black)

    All Air brushed except the Brunswick it was painted. Tell me what you think! Oh and I haven't added a dull coat which kinda darkens it a bit.

    Levi
