I'll probably get a PM now that you say that I know who painted it, and its yet another example of their ok work. Im not bashing the person who painted just so we're on the same page...but if I were you Id take the borden off drill a hole in the cheek and subdue it with glue to secure it to the lid...its sitting way to far out. And like I said its a good paint job but not on the caliper of the helmet its on. Looking more at it, even the silver looks brushed onto it in places. If your happy with it thats all that really matters and your GML will surely approve it.
I guess I'm playing to two different audiences. While I know I don't have the eye for detail or background on Fett like so many members here have (my expertise is batman), I really do appreciate the eye for detail which is why I posted it. I also have no artistic ability what so ever so this entire project has been paying top dollar for new items exclusively from members on the TDH, I haven't bought any second hand items yet which would have saved me considerable money to say the least.
That being said I do want a professional looking BF that will get me my BH designater in my Garrison/501st because my main audience for this project like all my other projects is to do children hospital visits. Currently I go as Batman for my Garrison to mix it up a bit for our charity events at hospitals. While I respect the opinions of the artists and members here as long as I can put a smile on the face of a sick child when BF comes in the room then I'm satisfied. I personally think the paint job will give any child the wow factor which is what I want. I know under closer scrutiny such as the TDH it may not have as much of the wow factor and I will incorporate everyone's thoughts as best as I can into the helmet (obviously my second audience).
Here's a pic of a recent visit that made it into SW INSIDER #123 (I'm the Batman), although I'd like to make it in there as BF eventually.
Thanks again for all the feedback.
