Repainted MR Boba EE-3 Blaster

I received a commission from a customer to repaint his Master Replicas Boba Fett EE-3.
he did not like the Mass-produced look of the MR
so...
He paid me to paint his $500 collectible , rendering it uncollectible :wacko
here's how it started

not much of a difference, I admit
but it doesn't look like it came off the assembly line now

BTW- this is what the real one looks like;

I went for that basic look , but a klittle more "real world"
LMK what you guys think

looks great!!!

I know this is random... but does that tag say "Boba Fett's blaster The Empire Strikes Back"? Correct me if I am wrong, but that is certainly the ROTJ blaster, am I right?

Anyway, haha... really weird he wanted his MR repainted, but I must say, you rocked it! It looks AWESOME! :)

Awesome work!

Every subtle detail is an improvement, yet still retains that MR quality.

Can you make it weigh less? :lol:

I want mine painted now I have seen how good they can look.

I think you are right!?!?!?

Yeah, the exhibit says ESB

I wish it was lighter
thing weighs a ton.

with boba being such a weapon loving guy, why the heck did he let his blaster get all rusty?

Or does he just like dirty things?

Looks excellent by the way!
