Father In Law Fett ROTJ Build

[MasterBlaster23]

Oh wow, print this as a regular picture and frame it. Because this really looks like a behind the scenes photo!!

Really good idea!

Love the picture, it's great that you thought to take it at that perfect time!! Papa is definitely focused on all that Fett !!!

I’m in agreement; that candid is fantastic (along with the Uncle Buck movie poster in the background).

I’ll be subtly trying to recreate this picture myself, but instead of snapping a picture of me, my wife will probably be telling me to clean it all up

Hahaha!! Luckily my wife has already gone through this with me when I was building my Vader. Now that we are doing Fett for her Dad she is all about it and actually enjoys seeing all the pieces coming together. Can't go wrong with Uncle Buck! One of my favorite movies.

Air brush? Rattle can? Air brush? Rattle can? Contemplated this for a year now and we decided to rattle can the helmet to keep it consistent with everything else that we painted. May not be the popular decision, but we will see how it turns out. Now on to the helmet! First layer down of Metallic Silver (Rustoleum). Going to start with the back panel first.

Awesome thread, I just wanted to chime in and say what a nice house that is! At the risk of sounding like a teenager, that room is goals.

Looking forward to seeing the pics on this !!
I'm sure it will look great as with the rest of the pieces that you've done for Papa so far !!!

 

[Micheltenc]

great progress.

It's coming along amazingly, keep us updated!

 

[MasterBlaster23]

Back panel is just about done. Started with Metallic silver, then layered on the dark gray, and finished it off with the Moss green. Masked each layer as I went. Going to work on the red section next. Feedback is more than welcome if you see anything that is off.

That is a beautiful start. The question remains tho, rattlecan...?

Thank you! I'm going rattlecan until the end.

How's Papa Fett's costume coming along ?

 

[MasterBlaster23]

We are down to just the dome. A few more details will be added once the dome is painted, but overall I think we are coming along well.

Thanks a lot! Luckily I have a wife that has the same interests as me so it didn't take much convincing with decoration ideas.

Helmet is looking really good. Looking forward to seeing the finished product!

 

[MasterBlaster23]

Here we are. Helmet is finished!!!! Revisited some areas and included as much detail as possible. Next up is suiting up and taking submission photos.
