    I was schooled by Darth Miller who said When displaying the costume the Pre-Pro left knee got mixed up with the other costume and so that was how it was displayed. DM chime in if I am wrong, please.

    So I updated my other thread but I wanted to show you the fixed Left Knee paint job. If you are doing the SE ROTJ Fett I suggest using the layered method for the Left knee because the topical is really hard to achieve that natural scratch look.

    Here is the before:


    And After:


    Tell me what ya think!
