Finally was able to replace a HUGE hole in my collection a little bit ago thanks to Asok! Sold my original Fett helmet and have missed it since, but meant I got the fun of starting the paint and build work over! Wanted to share this here as again the site has been an invaluable help during the process, especially Evan4218's paint list, and RafalFett's helmet template. I've been going pretty hard at it for about a week now, and progress is shaping up nicely, still a ways to go but the paint is nearing completion.
I have to say too, Asok was more then a pleasure to deal with, and the kit I received was literally flawless. I've been in the hobby for over a decade and I can't think of too many castings of this high quality and caliber!
My build and paint is pretty standard so I won't waste your time with the details you all already know, save for one, this is the second time I've used toothpaste as a masking agent, and it works as effective as anything else out there, plus leaves your helmet smelling minty fresh On with the picture progression up until today
