Work in Progress - My FP V2 Armor

[Buckeye 01]

Nice job brother. Can't wait to see it done.

Fantastic work Webchief!

That looks great! Isn't it funny how much more elegant something looks when you put a towel under it?

 

[DarthMiller]

[Icedevil]

Cod piece dent detail:

The only thing I'm not happy with and might change is the light green scratch color on the ab plate. Other than that I'm THRILLED with how this came out.

I used the templates as a guide and lightly sketched the scrapes on with a pencil. Then I went in with the masking fluid and tried to keep it in the lines. Some spots didn't come out quite right when the latex was removed so for those scrapes I had to paint them freehand topically.

Can't wait to show it off at Dragon Con!

Right on Chief!!!!!!!!! Doesn't get any better than that!!

 

[webchief]

I'm hoping for my first ever Seeker face with this one.

 

[Jangos kid]

UHM .....


DAMN !!!!

There, I gave ya one too, since I didn't have one of my own

Chief, that is just fanfriggintastic my friend !!!! That turned out
absolutely amazing. The first V.2 set painted, and it rocks.

One little tiny thing tho ...

Stand on a chair or something, when you're taking pics of the cod piece! You're blimping it out
with your focal length !! I wanna see how it looks with your awesome paintup with a better
focal length !!! Just stand on a chair with the camera about 6 ft away from the cod piece,
then zoom in a little with the camera zoom and try to get it to look something like this ...

You are most certainly welcome man. Glad you like it !
Great Job !!
