Thanks everyone for the kind wordsJ I’m very happy with this helmet and must thank TDH member REN(Josh) again for an amazing job done so very well. Thank you Friend!!!
The robe hood material was wrapped around the helmet when it was shipped back to me, added extra protection. It does look cool though, any Mandalorian Jedis out there?
I’m going to keep it covered and out of sight for now so I don’t get distracted from my current project. Looking forward to starting back up with this build.
I now have a second pair of PP2 gloves from Major, just need to dye them…
Also I have My FP-GMH#88 back from paint, Ren did an incredible job and he’s a great guy to work with. I sent him a raw GMH, no prep work was done to it and that was my mistake I wish I could have done over again but Josh(Ren) was nice about it and still pumped out quality work.
I’m going to do the rest of the helmet build on Ren’s PP2 commission thread.
Ooooooooh Yeah! those gloves look choice, cant wait to see the end result, like the low number FP lid, mine is #79, so glad I got mine when I did, keep it going
I was not 1000% happy with how the padded areas took to dye so i did a far amount of airbrushing to get it right and I think I’m happy now. After dyeing the gloves brown the padded areas looked to have a slight "pink" tint to them. Not the tan look i thought they would take. I used Tan fabric paint and used fine mist of black.
Here’s a good comparison. Right glove after only dyeing them brown and the left was dyed brown, airbrushed tan on the padding and slightly weathered.
Thanks Man, getting down to the wire here
Hope to meet you at C7 Brother! If you see me say HI, I'll be the dummy wearing a gray shirt with "(=Syper=)" printed on it, dork alert I know lol
