New ROTJ Bucket - Maker comes forward with new pics...

Since I was clouding up the bandwidth with the last thread, I decided to start fresh so everyone interested could take a good look without waiting 20 minutes for the pics to load up.

(Original thread) http://tdh.prop-planet.com/viewtopic.php?topic=8007&forum=2

For starters, this is the completed and final look at the helmet that has taken more man hours than I'd like to address. Every aspect of this bucket has been painstakingly researched down to every subtle scratch, odd mandible flare, paint and paint up. We have also compared this to the finest helmets available and a few that are not.


Now, look into my visor and tell me what you see...

Brilliant. That is quite inspiring. It is nice to see someone as "particular" as myself.

I will definately be checking out your pics when I move on to my fine detailing.

GREAT JOB, WPK!

This will be very helpful for all of us ROTJ-ers out there.

Thanks

BEAUTIFUL! I love all the detailed scratch, damage and weathering work! This is what seperates a good helmet from a great one. The more time that is put into the smaller details the better the overall outcome! Impatiently waiting to add one of these to my collection! Get on the assembly line, WPK, and get to crankin' these out!!

My jaw just hit the floor!! 8)

That is AWESOME!
I lay my bucket at your feet.....

Amazing WPK... truly amazing . I think maybe I'll have to make a trip back to my old 'hood to check this out in person. I am a little puzzled though with your focus on a ROTJ item...

Great work, looks awesome!

Looks great.

It's alright...aside from the silver ears and strange colours...


Looks amazing WPK, best ROTJ paintjob I have seen to date. I'd love to see some detailed photos of the physical scratches you made in it now that they are painted.

Truely beautyful helmet, glad to see so much nice stuff even if it is ROTJ You guys have really out done yourself again on this one.

I really don't know what to say????? Its incredible. If you put that one next to the real one, I don't think I could tell which was which. Fantastic!!!!

Absolutely amazing. Wow, holy crap, that is fantastic. If I owned that bucket I would never take it off. I'd were it to work, even shower with it on. Hell I'd sleep in the damn thing.
Great work my man.
Cheers,
ST

I will definately be checking out your pics when I move on to my fine detailing.

Excellent. Make sure you insure the box that you are sending it to me in.

So, when can I expect this in the mail?

Ah well, a man can dream!
