My foray into boba fett esb

[vaders right hand]

thx guys , yeah the speed of the project has been helped by being only one of two heating service guys on call 24-7 in a three county area , great money,,,, no sleep .

Nothing beats 'great money'.....

Especially when putting together a Fett.....

[vaders right hand]

Did some work on the armor today , krylon silver, yellow zinc chromate , the us med green , with a little panzer mist over the top , and a little weathring

Nice job! Glad to see your Fett is finally coming together! I'm hopeful I don't' have to wait as long!

 

[mkshane81]

Everything looks great so far!! I really like the thought of the sew-on snaps. Like you said, inexpensive and easy to use. I may have to keep those in mind when I decide to tackle this. Thanks for the tip.

 

[deadland]

Lovin it bro keep up the good work as it is coming along nicely. Love the idea that you came up with for securing the armor to the vest, I will have to look heavily into this method when I do mine.

[vaders right hand]

Ok so i wasnt to happy with the helmet paint job , i love the layered efffect but personally i cant get the detail so i went back to topical , and well t takes a while longer her is about 6 hours worth of work

 

[deadland]

Hey Bro looking great I wish my bucket would hurry up and get here. What are you using to apply the masking fluid that was not giving you the detail that you wanted.

 

[vaders right hand]

thx . im using a thin detail brush to apply the masking fluid its jusrt to hard to differnciate ? between the colors , topically its much easier .
