Hey all y'all. This is something I have wanted to complete for some time now. I have 3 buckets to paint...2 ASOK Jango's and a GMH. I am wanting to do a progression, timeline if you will, of the early Boba years. Definitely not going to have screen references or anything to compare it to but I am excited. I may start with something like the 1313 Helmet and then onto 2 early variations of Boba's Helmet.
Now I am not 100% sure on the timeline of 1313 but I would assume that it is some time after Jango's death but before Boba's debut in the original trilogy.
Do not hesitate to hit me up with ideas/concepts you've seen.
Cheers

This should be interesting! Funny thing that it was only a short while ago when I first knew of the 1313 variation, bumping into someone cosplaying as one at a comic con. Unique idea here.

Yeah, that blue is beautiful! Is that for Jango for the middle helmet?

@rnbuda Yeah! It's gonna be like a "recently dug up" Jango helmet I am thinking. Gonna have some epic weathering.

So we have got 2 kinds of rustoleum, a Metallic Blue and then a Gloss Blue. I can't remember the specific name of the gloss blue but it is very close to the Krylon Ocean Blue, very similar.

Just learning about this 1313 variation. Love the concept of a progression series, and the Jango is looking awesome. Subscribed.

Thanks! So just want to put it out there that I realize the paint colors are not screen accurate. I figured that after being in the ground for a while they make have changed a bit. Stoked about the weathering that is coming!

The color names should be on the back of the can just above the bar code.

Not sure why these are upside down...I've tried it like 5 different ways. Oh well. If you click to blow them up (2X) they show up the right way.

ASOK's Cold Cast Fiberglass. Several makers offer these on here.
