First Helmet Paint Job

Hey All,

I just put some of the finishing touches on my ESB Fett Helmet so I thought I'd let you guys have a look at it. This is the first Fett helmet I've ever painted, and is actually (after a few years of painting Warhammer and stuff) the very first 1:1 scale anything I've ever painted :lol:

The helmet is a Sgt. Fang Mystery Helmet (Recommended!!!!!). Everything is topically done, and hand painted (no decals). I used about $10 worth of dollar store paint and brushes (this was a budget costume... :p).

It's 99% done... I am going to rebuild the (now resin) rangefinder out of matboard to take a bit of weight off that side of the helmet, and I'm not extraordinarily happy with some of the weathering... but here it is!

Thanks for your feedback!

EDIT: Sorry for the shoddy iPhone photos... every camera battery in the house is dead. :(

Awesome paint job, bro! I very much like how you did the weathering on the entire bucket. It's a little different but it looks authentic like that helmet has seen some major action in battle.
