Boba Fett Knee Armor Draft Blueprints

Here is an update dented and primed and my shoulder bells. The shoulder bells are molded from 1/8” ABS heat formed to shape.

Hello,

The templates have been revised to add additional templates to show how to shape the dart blocks and to correct the dart drilling locations, they were off a bit.

The ZIP file in the link above has been updated to include the latest revisions.

Thank you Xombie for the heads up.

Hey Alan, thanks for all the help! I'm almost done with the first run. I'm going to paint them tonight. They turned out pretty nice with your foolproof templates, even though I got a little confused with the dart block. I'll send you a pic when I'm done.
 
Thanks guys. These have been a lot of fun to put together. I’ve spent so much time planning and drawing templates, it feels good to actual get back into building stuff. Feel free to post your efforts here if you don’t want to start a new thread. I really like to see how they have turned out.

Prymer13 - HA! Your Jedi Mind tricks won’t on me, cuss I don’t know your address, so there! Besides you have to have a mind to trick and I lost mine a ages ago.

Cool!! Looks great. Thanks for posting the pic it is great to see people putting my templates to use. Keep them coming.

I hit mine with chrome paint last night and I am quite happy with the results, four coats of primer and wet sanding paid off. I’ll let them cure for a few days before I start the painting process.

I picked up some Liquitex Mold Builder to use as a masking agent. I also printed up some full size shoulder bell emblems on parchment paper to give it that aged look. I try to post some pics tonight, don’t know how the chrome will photograph.

Hello,

As I was working on the Jango Knee Armor template I noticed an error on sheet 5. Apparently I don't know right from left. Sorry about that. The ZIP file has been updated.
