cnat exactly remember what it was called, but something like that. it works just like sintra, only this is what the company i asked recommended.
i have never worked with sintra, but from what iv seen on the net, this stuff seems harder, while sintra is more flexible

thanks Studio Fett:p
at first i thought of a republic commando look, then just a regular clone trooper. but i will probably make something of my own design, based on mandalorian armors and clone armor

the best way is to get a free photobucket account.. it is sooo easy!! photobucket automatically resizes your pics and gives you the link to paste on here!

this should be the left shoulder. i first layer is black, then i put some toothpaste on the ares i wanted weathering. then red layer, remove toothpaste and added the silver using a paintbrush.

next is the left arm. i have moved away from using the elastic bands to make it stick. instead im using some pieces of a sponge as padding, glued to the inside.

i finally settled for a paint scheme. i never could choose between black or white so did both and mixed in some red, simply because red rocks.
the fist on the chest is the one from the album cover of St Anger by Metallica, only i intend to... customize it a bit.

the black is going to be heavily weathered and show the white bellow, while the red on the shoulders and bucket will show the black bellow.
and yes, the mando symbol on the kidney peace sucks, ill fix that;)

tell me what you think and plz make suggestions for improvement!
