New ESB FP Armor

Thanks ^^^^

HUGE UPDATE!!! CAPS LOCK!!!

Alright so I laid down the base coat of US Med green and went on to the weathering. I did very slight weathering, since while looking at screen grabs, I could see weathering done lightly. Not too light and not too dark. In pictures your really cannot see weathering, but in person you will see a slight amount of weathering. I think it looks good.

Earlier today hot off the press

Then I painted the yellow on the left chest. All that is left to do is minor scratches.

I applied Scotts decal on the right chest and toned it down with washes of black PS paint.

And the blaster scuff marks...hurry up and finish your blasters Mason, I need to make it look like the blaster did it... and not me... :D

I also installed the famous "thong" on the kidney piece. That picture is too x rated for TDH however. I do have a picture with flash of everything though haha.

Sometime this week I will paint the yellow scratches and zinc up the shoulders and knees. :D

Let me know what you think.
