First time Fett helmet paint job. ESB Completed!

[Boba Flint]

Hi,
Been lurking around for a while. Thought I'd share some of my progress on my Wasted Fett FP2.
I'm using Archive X paints.

Ears came out great, looking forward to seeing another WF FPH2 paint up!

Looking real good so far for your first paint job! Looking forward to seeing the final product!

 

[Boba Flint]

Some more back plate progress.

 

[BudaFett]

Back panels look great!

 

[Mythos Fenn]

Off to a pretty awesome start

 

[Boba Flint]

Slowly making progress.

Weathering is coming along great! Any pearls of wisdom you've gained through the paintup?

 

[Grimstuff]

Yeah agree with everyone else, coming out great, especially for the first go. Great stenciling. I never had patience to get all the little chunks internal to the big metal spot on the back panel, but looks like you got bout all of em.

 

[Boba Flint]

Thanks guys.

I guess the only thing I can say is take your time. THere are some members that seem to finish a helmet every other week. I have no idea how they do that.

Are you painting topically or layered?

 

[Boba Flint]

I'm using both methods. For the basic shapes/ weathering I use the layered method. The more finer details are topical.

You are doing some fine work here.
