Hi
Just received the best (very early) Christmas present from Steve the Swede. What can I say? these pictures will speak for themselves. All I can say is that this guy is a real professional, truly talented, honest and above all he's created the best looking ESB lid I've ever seen.:thumbup

Crazy!
That looks time consuming!
Beautiful. Did you use clearcoat on it to get that shine?
Wow! Quite simply a gorgeous looking helmet!
I am very jealous!
There's some serious skill involved in getting a paint job to look that good! i think that even beats his Star Wars Helmet tutorial paint job....
like many others in this thread, i had been watching that over on the RPF. so very, very nice!
That is one dam nice helmet.
I am actually kind of jealous.
What else can one say except ***!!!
Breathtaking-simply breathtaking!!
Thats kinda a shotty paint job, ill take it off your hands if you want
That...uh...buh...DANG!...um...uh...DAAAAAANNNNNGG GG!
You're a lucky man DAZ.......
and a New standard has been set......STEVE, JUST WOW!!:thumbup
Is it wrong of me to say...but, "That looks better than the movie version"...
It's liquid !
IT's like Bruce Lee would say, it's like water my friend, it just flows!!!
I didn't paint this beauty, that's down to Steve the Swede, I believe he used a satin coat to seal the whole lot then misted over it with a matt coat to give it a dusty feel.
I think he totalled around 140 hours to paint it, no building, just painting.
Words can't express the attention to detail on this, he's even copied the residue left behind by the masking tape around the kill stripes....
My other helmet, my (MS1) will now be displayed in my prop room, but not on Boba's head.
DAZ
With a Kick *** bucket, comes an AMAZING paint job!!!....Congratulations man!
I'd be interested in hearing how much the paint job's price tag was...
Yeah!
I think thats best kept between Steve and Daz, unless he thinks otherwise
Yeah that is true, or he could just PM it to keep it a secret. Top secret. I know I would be interested in knowing how much one of these ran, just out of pure curiousity though.
Oh yes, I know that. I wouldn't want him to post anything out in the open, and I don't really need to hear an answer in private.
Everytime I come back to this thread, the more I want to just toss my bucket in the trash....and I just started painting it
every time i look at this thread, it makes me want to paint up an ESB helmet!
WOW! I need someone to pick me up off the floor!!!
Just speechless!!
PM me for info
