That looks Great!
I really like custom mandalores that change up the armor instead of using fett's armor, just painting it diffently.
The armor's paint looks great! :thumbsup:
What did you use to get that aligator skin type of look?
Keep up the good work.
 
the paint job took, now sit down for this........:eek: over 2 weeks!!

What I did was, primed the armor, then with a FANTASTIC bottle, mixed the yellow paint with a ton of water. Sprayed, let it evaporate (2 days) repeated after tilting the armor a different way so the run-off would change, this time it took 4days to dry!!
Then the 3rd and forth coats took about the same each, but the killer was the last when I dusted with flat black while the paint was still wet and pooled up. That spray took 5days to dry almost. Sigh, watching that paint dry was a test of patience let me tell ya. But it was worth it cause man do I like the look!!!!!!
Thanks for the feedback guys.
