ESB Jetpack Build/Paint up

[FamousFett]

Just finished my jetpack build yesterday. I still need to get a micro dental file for it but other than that I'd say this is finished, I might add some more light weathering as well.

Little edit, I made the jetpack a little lighter and added more rust stains to the thrusters

Nice work. Are the top sections of the tanks supposed to be maroon, or yellow?

They are like a weathered yellowish orange color, most people say yellow but to me they look more yellowish orange with some dark weathering

Looks great!

Thanks!

I realised the tops of tanks were too orange so I fixed that and made them a lot more yellow

Famous, your jetpack looks terrific. I am just starting to look into getting a jetpack and have a few questions. Was the kit a BobaMaker version? I saw the moveable fins and thought it might be his. How hard were the metal bits for the thrusters and the metal ring for the missle to install and how did you do it? I was wondering what kind of adhesive you used for them as well. Thanks!

Thanks man! This kid was made by DVH props, and the metal pieces were easy to install I just glued them in place, the ring isn't metal but it's easy to install too just gotta line it up but the missle is removable so the tube at the bottom of the missle made it easy to glue it in place. I use e6000 epoxy for glueing everything in and sometimes I'll use a hot glue gun.
