    ROTJ/SE Fett

    So here it is, my 99.99% Fett, I know it's become a cliche but it wouldn't have been possible without the fantastic resource that is "The Dented Helmet". Any hoo, hope you like, input good or bad always welcome!!

    These are some pics that will be submitted to KOTE for clearance.









    Thanks for looking guys!!!

    Re: ROTJ/SE Fett

    Very nice. If that does not get Kote clearance I will be worried. Great job. Two questions, and I am sure you are aware of the areas. Have you got anything between the armour and the chest lights? and what are the wookie braids?

    Also buddy, I am about an armour attachment behind you!

    Re: ROTJ/SE Fett

    Looks spectacular Dougie! As a fellow ROTJ/SE, you have certainly outdone yourself! Do you have a parts list? Only 2 suggestions: 1.) it looks like you're missing 1 hose on your right gaunt. There should be one running from the piece of tube on the underside of the whip-cord housing. 2.) dirty that flightsuit up a bit more..should be filthy! Good luck with your submission!!

    Impressive, most impressive. I noticed the MR lid. Are you going to leave the visor as is, or are you going to fix the pinch and replace it? Looks like a bunch of quailty parts all around.

    Re: ROTJ/SE Fett

    Thanks Mike. Would you believe, that third hose become detached just before the shoot so I just left it off, I suppose that's the beauty of an SE Fett.

    The flightsuit and gloves are a lot dirtier than they look, always the same with photos.

    Fix the pinch? Not a chance!! Too scared to try. I'll probably upgrade to a ROTJ Bucket in time.

    Re: ROTJ/SE Fett

    So true about pics...they just suck the weathering right out of the item!

    Upgrade to a ROTJ...say it ain't so! Again, the ROTJ/SE is just versatile...sorta like duct tape! 8)

    Re: ROTJ/SE Fett

    This is an awesome looking Fett, the two things I noticed was the two breast plates are touching on the bottom where the ab plate meets. I would space them out a little more by tightening them to the center piece a bit and your helmet has one little thing. The opening where the visor comes all the way down is not even at the bottom. I would take it off and reset it using a little speader clamp to get it even so that when it drys it holds it tight. Other then that I'm jealous. Sorry if I sound to picky

    Parts list? That's an MR bucket -- thus the pinch -- right?

    Yes it is the guy from Chile, the most helpful person I have dealt with throughout this entire process.

    It did take approx 10 weeks but I had been warned. It was worth the wait although the paintjob was a touch glossy for my liking so I toned it down with a coat of matt varnish.

    You should give it a shot. It's actually pretty easy to do without damaging the helmet or interior, and it makes a world of difference. It looks SO much better when its fixed. Whatever the case, you have a beautiful Boba Fett there.

    CONGRATS!!!! Looking amazing and a really nice Fett. The only thing the stood out to me like a sore thumb was the spacing of the ammo belt pouches. but that should be an easy fix. Other than that it looks really impressive! Did you paint the JP yourself? Congrats again, you should be really proud of the completion of a Fett. cheers!

    Re: ROTJ/SE Fett

    Yes I did paint the jet pack myself. Layered but if i was to do it again I'd go for topical.

    The spacing of the ammo pouches?? You kids will never be happy

    I'm a photographer so it's my studio kit but I got a good friend of mine (Ricus) to take the shots and another third pair of eyes to make sure everything looked the way it should. All the raw processing was done by me!

    Re: ROTJ/SE Fett

    Hey I have to say the JP is painting looks spot on and it looks really AMAZING!!! But I wouldn't have noticed the ammo belt if it wasent for me looking at too many ROTJ pics. Way too many...I might be too critical of my suit but we shall see. I would just move them close together but again no one else would know outside of here. Overall though it loks like you jumped out the screen! Also GREAT pics! Cheers and Congrats again.
