Death Watch Clone Wars Mando Bucket

Cruzer, I can't believe I missed this entire thread until Brian pointed it out. Amazing job! I can't say I'm a fan of custom Mandos (sorry) but this one being a character seen in the new show isn't custom is it? ;-) Really well done and beautiful craftsmanship!
 
Thanks guys, glad you like it. I had a lot of fun making this helmet. I had so much fun that I'm right in the middle of painting another cold cast copy that I hope to have done for a get together with some fellow SW fans this Monday. I also have an extra cold cast one in the molds that I'll be pulling out this weekend. The one I'm currently painting has bascially the same rattle can colors and shade 5 welding visor as previously, but this time around I'm going to try and make a printable stencil for the emblem that can be cut out on tape. I've got the backside blue drying right now and can post a few pics when I get a chance.

Utopia, I've only made one other copy, but I do have the molds just sitting in my garage collecting dust. PM me if you think you might be interested.

Apparently these guys will be featured in the next issue of Star Wars Insider #115.

Thanks

I'm already deep into my comic-style Fett or I might attempt thearmor. It looks really simple.

Dang it, do I dare take on another project?

I LOVE that helmet!
 
The Helmet looks awesome buddy. Can't wait to see it this upcoming Monday. Have a safe trip up here in The SF Bay Area. Lucas's backyard... :D ...hehe!!
 
I was trying to think of a word to describe how awesome that looks, but I couldn't come up with anything. The shape combined with the color scheme makes the helmet epic win! Nice work!
 
Pm sent bro.
Just finished the second helmet. I went a little different with the emblem on this one and tried to replicate the design seen on the SW Insider cover pic. The pics in order are clean, misted with Rustoleum charcoal primer, and weathered.

Strictly awesome. wish they had announced this a month ago before I started Jodo. might have to try to do 2 projects at once. and this might go to the #1 position if I can work out some extra cash. that helmet the CW armor yeah would be cool like the holsters as well. I wanted to do a Custom with that same set up for the leg holsters.
 
Nice seeing this bucket up close last night at the screening!
Good to meet you to Cruzer. That’s a dope lid you have there.

Great helmet Lorenzo! Whenever you get the chance, can you send the pic to either Dean or I, the one with us, Dave & Mary. Thx! How was the crazy drive back yesterday?
