After lurking around here for ages I finally decided to give the ESB Boba Fett helmet a shot. I've done a few sets of stormtrooper armor in the past, but lets face it, there's not much of a painting challenge there. I got a Marrow_Sun 2 helmet a few months ago, and finally got around to getting it started...
I cut out little eye holes to see how big it would look on me...
Then I painted it "Nickle Shimmer".
Next was the liquid masking.
I painted the dome and cheeks.
Next...
Had a little fubar with the keyholes. The two paints didn't like each other.
A black wash to dull down the colors, and there you have it.
It was a lot of fun doing this, I'd like to thank everyone here for all the help. Now that I'm done I want to do another one. I'm thinking about a M_S 3...

You should be very proud of yourself!
Great work. What paint type did you use to make it slick looking? Curious because mine is a bit coarse but then I haven't added a coat of semi-gloss and dull yet.
more of a success than a attempt
Have any similar experience or did that work pretty well?
