Hey mate! Yeah I know but I had to move to Melb because of my Mrs (and work). If I ever move back up I will be starting a 501st Outpost in D-Town for sure !
Installed the hard hat inner today and hand painted the right ear cap, need to go over it with some steel wool and I also worked on the front mandibles and weathered.
Feel like the dome damage scale is off. It seems to big. The cat scratch the dent seem like 10% to large. You might want to consider redoing the dome maybe at a later date not sure if you see it or not...but good job overall...
HEy Fett 4 Real, yeah I know I have been looking at that for the past few days and realised the cat scratch is too big. I am going to mask it out and then airbrush away some of the scratch. I had to eyeball all the dome so I am not surprised some of it is a bit off. Thank you for the feed back
A few more photos of the helmet down that most of the detail work is done. There is always room for improvement but I think I have had enough of painting for the next few days/weeks! Thanks to everyone who has helped me out on these forums much appreciated
Wow thanks syllander I went with the humbrol enamels which came out with a really nice matt finish better than I expected. I have re painted around the dent a few times now ugh still not happy with it but need to have a break from painting as I have a photo shoot today in costume. I will post some pics on here haha! Thanks mate
I am waiting on the actual photos but here is one of me from the other days Photo Shoot with Scott Dixon who does some amazing cosplay photos here in Melbourne
Hey Hobbit thanks for the kind words man! I have had to run the flight suit through the washing machine a few times as the stench was getting pretty unbearable after 12 months worth of troops lmao cheers!
