Okay Guys,

Just received my Life Size Clone Trooper Bust, it is awesome! Perfect condition, my fist LSB, if i have enough place, not my last one!

Really happy with it.

 

[Darth Waller]

That looks pretty good. Would love to see a non-weathered version.

Looks real nice!
Congrats to those who got him

As for me I have to admire the pics and be happy with my custom helmet for now.

 

[Sectar02]

Thank you guys .

You're right, a non weathered version would be awesome, but i'd better like to see a phase 1 Bust, in my opinion they have an amazing design.

 

[Mace Handowan]

Also received mine.

It is really an awesome piece.

 

[Sectar02]

Wahoo, looks strange, mine seems to have the way more turned to the left, maybe it is the photo angle.

 

[Mace Handowan]

What exactly do you mean? You mean your head is tilted more to the left? Can you provide a picture of yours?

 

[Sectar02]

Yep, mine seems to be a bit titled more to the left. Mmmh, don't really know how to upload pics on a treat.

 

[Sectar02]

Ah! I just found out that the head turns! That's why mine seems so different.

Do you also can?

 

[Mace Handowan]

Actually I didn't know that the head turns. Might give it a try later. But it's good to know that neither mine nor yours is damaged.

 

[Sectar02]

Me neither, but was watching the SS photos, and i was like, it's not possible, mine is way different, so i tried slowly and was really surprised. Yep it's really good to, for sure, i'm a bit disappointed by some parts where the paint job is not really the best they can do, but still happy with the piece

 

[Mace Handowan]

Of course, at certain positions, the paint job could have been better, but I am still surprised how good this thing turned out. They really nailed the blue color scheme of the 501st Legion perfectly. By the way: Just tried to slowly rotate the head. Worked like a charm. Now I have turned the head a bit more to the left and the bust looks even more awesome than before

 

[Sectar02]

Ahaha perfect mate, that's a nice discovery . I know, right, it's even better a bit more turned to the left .

You are right, they really nailed the blue, and the damage look is awesome, have to admit, well the only parts where i got so paint job trouble is around the two respiration holes (sorry don't how to translate it well in english).

I have just taken a pic with my iPhone (sorry for the flash):

The paint job on the middle part looks better in reality than on the picture. So does yours look different?

 

[Sectar02]

How do you upload them on the post?

Mine doesn't look different, but i just had to sand a part on the left hole, cause there was a small defect on the cast, that was were the paint was not very clean, but yours looks awesome congratulations. Other than that, mine is the same.

The upload is rather simply. First thing you have to do is to create an Imageshack account (or something similar):

From there, you can simply upload your pictures for free and they will provide the corresponding tag/direct link onto the image which you can then insert when using the "Insert Image" button while editing a post.

 

[Sectar02]

That is what i was thinking.

Thank's for your help, and once again congratulations on this piece.

No problem. I have to thank you since my bust now looks even more awesome than before because of your discovery
