Superjedi's GMH--Pre-Pro 2

As always you've done an excellent paint job and it really shows your care on this helmet.

I don't know if you noticed this, but there's a missing continuity of pink scratch on the right mandible.

Are you planning to do those white stains on the back of the dome?

Thanks guys! This was the most complex Fett project I've done to date. It's not even over yet! :)

Rafal, good catch! I will have to correct that section. I'm starting a new semester today, so I probably won't have time till the end of the week.
Shouldn't be too hard to mask and blend that area with the airbrush. Thanks man!

I'm glad that I can help in any way... Even so your paint job looks perfect!
 
UPDATE: JULY 9, 2011

Thanks to Rafal's keen eye, I went back onto the right mandible and corrected the larger pinkish area.
I remasked the shape, and airbrushed Caboose back over it. I think that if I just tried to do the extra pink portion, the rest of the pink would have come out brighter than I wanted.
I resprayed the pink over the Caboose, and after it dried, I unmasked the area and repainted the small gray details and touched up the silver.

Oh, and I also misted a bit of pink over the right turn signal, too. I had base painted it previously with Caboose.

I have also drilled out all the small holes to position the ears, but until I find out for sure whether the aluminum ears will be a "for realz" addition, I'm not going to mess with the resin ears just yet.
So for now I will remain in standby mode. :)
 
LOL Eric! I scrolled up from the botoom of the page to you most recent post and literally for a moment thought that I was looking at a photo of the real helmet.
 
Thanks, guys. I wish it were the real helmet! That would be the ultimate collector's piece.

still waiting on the crayon! :cheers

Yes, the crayon! I've been considering the best way to do it. I have a couple of methods I want to test this weekend before I do anything on the helmet.
It has to be subtle, yet distinctively crayon-like.
I'll post for sure once I add that detail.
