I know, it was a general statement to the group not you, as im aware you did the paint master but some may not be aware that the paint master and final production piece don't share the colours that are the secret EFX colours you mentioned, as they wouldn't be secret then Either as would be on...

The EFX Swatches and EFX Production helmet aren't the same colours either.

So the age old problem , everyone is wrong, he's wrong , their wrong , RS are wrong, everyone is wrong , its totally wrong, looks wrong , doesn't look right , not the right colour. etc etc etc First of all Id like to add some interesting facts, No one has ever claimed we make the correct Fett...

Lovely to See the PP2 getting some Archive-X love, beautiful and very quick work by John Simmons, his first helmet and hopefully not last Using GN Grey Green and grime mix with Dark Green and d&H caboose red misted or darkened with engine black. John has made a blue ish mix for the misting coat...

Thanks, yes I was intending to add a list, but in 2 minds at the moment, I'd like more results first I think before I release a set. Im in it for the Love not the money so to speak

With Fett we are very hesitant to release what would be a complete set as feel much of the original work wasn't strictly out of the jar, its very complex to get the paint looking right. Though we do have the matches for a lot of the helmet, the artistry is required to get the results and from...

The frame will be black or metal finish , we’re working with Innometal to metallise the art , an amazing product that has ties to the new star wars films ironically

Veery kind words, thank you. I want it to be a very unique piece and something a true Fett Fan can just look at on the wall and know they having something quite special. The hard part is deciding how best it looks as art, its not a replica it is art so tweaks and taste are very difficult to...

A little update on this, This is the V2, slightly altered shape and Frame under construction in Mahogany to be painted , there needs to be a few more paint masters done before I decide how I want to paint it but the results are looking rather unique and bonkers so far. There will be around 5 of...

That was a gift as we had a slight delay sending your paint, its a colour we had done as a test that we're unlikely to run in the future. Some of the 60's colours are more accurate in hue to SW, but this was a little off, but you can see howe the colour developed over time as there is a stark...

I can't go into specifics but I have people who use my paint in the industry and that have archive access and studies have been done alongside many items in the archive both on ships and costume by many different folk.

They will , hopefully around Christmas time but they will be waterborne not solvent based, we’re experimenting with different formulas now to get it as good as we can

Yikes typing at night on mac with auto correct , I’ll go through the diction today lol

Thanks, though the credit is down to more people than just us, it’s a team effort

Another theory that I believe from studying the ref is that the reds extend beneath the black in the cheeks, thats why you see a maroon shade to it in certain light, its the same on Slave 1 in many areas, they seem to just go over it, Im convinced there is some opacity to the black and beneath...
