How did you polish, any special technique or tools? Just wondering, thanks!

Sorry that's what I meant, but why a different cast and paint job, why not just paint it to look like esb's?

Has there ever been any reason why they decided to completely repaint the helmet for ROTJ? Not even close to similar to ESB's like previous early iterations of Fett's helmet? Just curious who's call that was, and what was the reasoning behind it. I find it very interesting given how detailed the...

Absolutely gorgeous, makes me want one! Also, what kind of camera do you use Art? Your photos are always so breathtaking and professional looking, the quality is top notch. (y)(y)

ah iPhone cameras and lighting tricking us again

Good luck! My helmet I repainted was a 96' DonPost, was sure challenging but I love it

Happy Anniversary to one of the best Fett painters I've ever seen! Congrats!

To the uninitiated, could someone tell me the differences (even if miniscule) between WF's Fugly vs MC/RS's G1's?

The mando helmet is also less wide than Boba's or Jango's which also contributes to it's smaller silhouette.

Nice! I would love to get one of those one day and paint it up preprod colors. This was def fun but took me awhile. It was my first vinyl kit and definitely very different than plastic kits or Bandai's Boba kit. Because I had strengthened the vinyl to make it more sturdy, that made making both...

On man, good catch! Since the thrusters were both one part I didn't catch that. Thanks Fett4Real! Here it is now:

Almost done with my Boba Fett vinyl kit, just need to complete the base and it should be done. Did Rotj SE colors. I've had this kit since 2006 so it's been awhile lol Hope this is the right forum.

I've kept largely quiet on my experience with MF, but I decided to share it just so it's documented and to help others in the future. Despite being warned beforehand by some, I decided to take a gamble and ordered an "A" cast Mando Helmet kit from MF for $245 on October 14th, 2019. I didn't...
