My Fem Mando Progress (pics)

You should definitely look up Barbie Fett. Your concepts seem to be similar. Good luck.

Now dirty that bucket up, it's way too clean. ;^D
 
And for the record let me just say that pink spray paint in a satin finish is hard to come by. REALLY hard. As in Manhattan had no idea what I was talking about lol.

Yeah i did check out her pictures on flickr. They look great! I do plan to dirty it up some when its all done. I have actually been looking all over the web for more armor parts and I think I am going to mix and match armor pieces from different costumes. I'm thinking about doing a Imperial Biker Scout back and biceps and maybe add some stormtrooper accessories. I dont know though. Just an idea. :)
 
I couldn't resist but to put some kill stripes on the helmet. This is probably one of those examples of a beautiful mistake. I masked with mustard (which is yellow and my helmet is white) DUH!? For some reason I didn't think it would stain, but it did. At first I was pissed but after looking at it for a minute I thought it was actually a really nice complement to the helmet.

I will probably use the mustard to continue staining a faint yellow when i do more stripes throughout the body armor. What do you all think???? But beware anyone who doesn't want the yellow haha. mustard stains!
 
p.s. the camera doesn't do the colors justice. the yellow stain is actually a lot nicer in person. really nice light yellow. i think the flash washed out a lot of it.
 
honestly, i love the pink and white. but i'm that guy that has a pink xbox controller just so i can tell people on halo 3 that they got killed by a dude with a pink controller. it's better than corpse humping!
 
I really like what you got so far! That's so cool! I like the scratch/cut you put on the front. I'm pumped to see more progress pics :D

No more yellow! I decided to paint over the mustard stains... I like making rash decisions.

As for the scar, yes I was thinking about painting it in silver. I'll post more pictures later this weekend.
Its my boys birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY RUNJEDIRUN!!! <3
