More work on my SE armor!
A few months back I had painted my knees using pics from the MoM exhibits as reference. The SE suit, however, uses a different left knee which appears to be a holdover from a pre-pro costume.
I got a new set of knees from Viva Fett in order to make an SE left knee. This was a set of "Supertrooper" knees, which are vac formed with no physical damage. I used some heat and a small tool to make a dent that matches the SE reference, then painted it up.
In the pic of both knees, you can see that the pre-pro knee is a lighter color overall, which can be seen in the reference pics.
I wound up using custom colors for this one. I used a couple of different Polly Scale yellows.
I think this pretty much completes my SE armor set!
