Superjedi's FPH2 ESB for Thxboy

[superjedi]

Hi Fett heads!
Starting my last commission of 2019. It will be my 38th ESB helmet!
This is an FPH2 kit from Wasted Fett that's being painted as a screen used ESB. I just received the kit this afternoon, and here are a couple of shots as I received everything, and after cutting and trimming.



Much more to come!

 

[superjedi]

Progress for today includes primer and the beige shade on the rear panels.

 

[superjedi]

Things are moving along well. I've gotten the dark green down on the back panels. Now I can start adding the gray and silver damage.

 

[superjedi]

Finished up the left panel.

 

[superjedi]

The right panel is done now, too.
Next I'll throw some color on the dome and cheeks.

 

[superjedi]

Mixed up a batch of custom green and airbrushed it on the dome and cheeks.



Next I'll work on the dome damage.

 

[superjedi]

Got a good amount done on the dome today.

 

[superjedi]

Whew! Moving right along...
I finished the turn signal area, the dent, and the damage on the crown of the dome.

 

[Jc27]

Looking good as always

 

[superjedi]

Thanks!
Got the killstripes on today. Lots of masking but it's worth it!

 

[superjedi]

Finished the rest of the dome and laid in the dark color on the outer cheeks.

 

[superjedi]

Finished the right cheek.

 

[BudaFett]

Out of "retirement"...

 

[superjedi]

Who's retired?

Finished the left cheek...



... and got the red airbrushed on.

 

[BudaFett]

You're moving quick!!

 

[superjedi]

Yeah everything is going well with this one!
I finished the keyslot area this afternoon.



I'll work on the red band next.

 

[superjedi]

Here's the center section of the band.

 

[superjedi]

Left section is done now.

 

[superjedi]

Right section is done, too. This completes everything behind the ears.

 

[superjedi]

Started on the brow area.



The left side is complete, and I've laid in the gray on the right half.
