That universe is my favorite as well! Stardust Memory and War in a Pocket are pretty great too. Those are some great models you've got there, makes me think of all the technological advances Bandai has made in the modeling world, its truly incredible.

War in the pocket has my favorite ms design, the Hygogg! I love the Geara Doga as well. I'm working on doing some dioramas for the kits after my Fett is completed or during the wait times.

Also a slight update, I've finished the inner and lower ears on the left side as you're looking at it. Awaiting magnets foot attachment and the last two paint applications for the ear cap as well as the green for the right ear.

I'll be fixing up the dent paint job as well! Then weathering; excited for that, pictures to follow soon.

So I redid the dent finally, I like it a lot better now and it definitely looks more like the reference pictures. Gonna be weathering that up as well as getting that adhesive green mark underneath the killstripes mixed up.
Also got the U put on the right ear, will be taking a fine tipped brush to smooth out the outer lines as the masking fluid let it bleed JUST a smidge.

Looking amazing! I have never added the residue strip. What did you use?

Thank you! This is my first time emulating that effect on a helmet.
I mixed up a paint color similar, but lighter, to the dome as well as some gunmetal to give it a slight shimmer. Then blotted it away with a paper towel and gave it straight edges with a paint shaper.
