almost done

[Izim]

yea, anyways, my armor is trimmed, as many of you suggested. still needs to be repainted, the problem is it renders my old flightsuit and velcro useless

 

[TantiveIV]

i wouldnt directly attach it to a flight suit, attach it to a vest of some sort, its a lot easier and you can keep it on the vest always

 

[Mercke Lutso]

Yes, definitely use the vest. It makes things alot easier and looks pretty cool in the process

 

[Kashyyyk4ABY]

sheesh Clayster....anyways,

That blaster is beyond cool. The blasted-off look is just ingenious. Your armor is looking better and better. Keep up the good work!

 

[Mercke Lutso]

Hey Izim, just a suggestion, but I think you should consider some carbon dusting on that chestplate. It would make it look sooo much better.

 

[Izim]

carbon dusting you say? i dunno what that entails

 

[TantiveIV]

so it looks like theres black powder on there...if youre good with spray paint, you can do it the easy way

if not, then grind up some black chalk and brush it onto some areas on your armor, then use some sealer to keep it on there

 

[Mercke Lutso]

There is a tutorial on carbon dusting posted on the Mandalorian Mercs site.

Pretty easy with a 1 inch brush, sand paper, and a piece of black artists chalk =D

Yes you can do it with paint to, but if you haven't done it with spray paint before then you need to practice before you try. The chalk method is pretty fool proof until you put your varnish or sealant over it.

Just use charcoal, crush it, and brush it on.
