    Fett1794’s ROTJ build

    Hi Iron, Cheers for the praise! Yep you’ve got nearly all the missing details and improvements to be honest. There’s more work that needs to be done on the jetpack too. 1) They’re just plastic-leather cheap’ish ones from China. They do the job for now and yes I’ve bought some toe spikes to add...

    Fett1794’s ROTJ build

    Thank you! 501st quality isn’t an immediate goal (need to let my wallet recover!) but who knows over the years to come? There are definitely things I’d like to acquire and bits I want to upgrade.

    Fett1794’s ROTJ build

    After starting this project nearly a year ago, I’ve finally got to a stage where I’ve got a passable Boba Fett costume that is mostly complete. Still some more minor bits to do, but I’m happy with where it is for now. What do you think? It’s not 501st but I think it still looks pretty legit...

    Cheers man! That jetpack looks great! Makes me think I should try and get all the parts and greeblies for mine to finish it off. I guess that’s the thing with starting a boba fett project, there’s always ways to improve and modify the suit over time and you don’t have to start at perfection from...

    Here’s the full selection of rattle cans I used for the jetpack. Additionally, the chipping was done with a combination of humbrol masking fluid and manual chipping and scratching with a small file. All parts were primed with jenolite grey primer filler, and then given a coat of silver. The...

    ROTJ jetpack with rattle cans (photos)

    Went with a pair of blue colours. Initially, I started with Plastikote ‘Satin night navy’ but that came out quite dark so I bought a smaller can of Plastikote ‘Harbour blue’ to dust over the top of it. That served two purposes - 1) brightened up the overall blue of the jetpack and 2) created a...

    Thanks very much! I was sceptical as to whether I’d be able to pull off something that looks even half as good as the airbrush jobs with only rattle cans. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!

    Thought I’d post images of the paint job I did for my ROTJ jetpack. To be clear, I haven’t been completing my build to a 501st standard at all and this jetpack is missing some greeblies of which I’m aware. I’m just out to make something that looks movie quality to a novice. I’ve also just used...
