Love seeing any kind of WIP thread, especially one of such caliber!
Mind answering some questions? (apologies if you've already answered these elsewhere and I'm bad at the search function here).
Is it all acrylic, or are there enamels used as well?
What do you use for thinning your paints?
I...
Hello all!
I come before you looking for some advice on modifying my SE Fett's armor colors. Here he stands at the moment:
Years ago when I painted this, for the ESB helmet paint up I followed the colors laid out in the stickied MindMeister map (Boba Fett Paint Colors) which I feel gave me...
Thanks Scimitar, appreciate the seasonal difference insight!
Good to hear! Does Dark Side Closet actively take orders? I have the base flight suit and am in need of a flak jacket and cape, think I could reach out to them on FB?
Sorry if my topic is a result of a lack of searching, but from what I can tell is most season 2 Mando builds are sans-jetpack. Since I'm putting together a version with the jetpack, I was wondering how I would go about the cape situation. In my poorly captured screenshot, you can see how it...
Love the new paint job! So odd seeing the armor cleanly painted after staring at thousands of reference photos to study the damage patterns when doing my own suit! Also loved the ESB pack (hope it's not a repaint of his one pack as I love the ROTJ pack and would love to see him wear a cleanly...
I'm looking forward to it because Din has stated that he intends to track down the original owner of the armor, so it means he's essentially trying to find Boba and I'm certain we'll get something around it. Really hoping they write Fett to be an ally-ish of the Mandalorian, I'm ready for some...
This is EXACTLY how I felt, my heart was pounding the whole episode because I was so scared he was just gonna be ignored and "written off" unceremoniously. The final shot made me lose my absolute mind and I couldn't be happier, I've been waiting for this moment ever since I first saw RotJ as a...
This sounds like it's going to be an refreshingly awesome story in the Star Wars universe (by that I mean it's not dealing with another civil war gripping the galaxy). They mention Boba and Jango buuuut didn't the new canon (unfortunately) de-associate them with Mandalorians for some reason...
Looks fantastic! Mind listing where/who you sourced each part from (or if you made it yourself) just for curiosity's sake? You've got a quality suit there!
Sorry to hear you didn't have luck, took me three years before I was finally able to get tickets myself. Just gives you more time to perfect your outfit, much better to be satisfied with your suit instead of feeling rushed and trooping in something not fully up to your standards. More time to...
Hi there! I'm attempting to paint a helmet chrome and to do so you put down primer, then a gloss paint (usually black), and then a chrome paint of your choice. In my case I'm using Spaz Stix chrome which I have been very pleased with so far with test runs on various materials. I was wondering if...
Love seeing paint ups with how easy it is to relate to the whole process! Lookin forward to seeing your progress, have a set of RKD armor myself and I'm sure you don't need me to tell you how fantastic it is!
^Second this, I too have an SE Fett I'm getting close to wrapping up and I decided to leave that hose off just because it looks kinda funny attached to the rocket (and in reference pictures it looks like it was attached with some duct tape for god knows what reason).
As for the parts you need I...
