ANH Han Solo - Official picture thread

Those look AWESOME!

Here are a few shots of our re-paint. We also gave the shirt a "tea bath" to darken it up.

It was really tough to get the right light for these pictures.

Skin tone looks great. Just do a light wash at the perimeter of the eyes with pink, add a think line of dark brown the the eye lids, bring out the brown in the iris, and gloss the eyes, and this piece will come alive.

 

[Chakaman]

I agree. I am going to run out and get some gloss tomorrow, I have been meaning to do that.

The pictures really do not do this repaint any justice. The eyebrows are fairly dark, just doesnt show up in the picture.

Thanks for the input.

Can't get enough of these repaint shots! Its been said 1000 times, but Trev's sculpt on this piece destroys anything else out there, IMHO. New paint works wonders!

Can someone elaborate on the "tea bath" treatment of the shirt?

Brew up some hot tea and dunk the shirt.

And then drink the tea.

Easily the best repaint IMO.

Yeah, that's a homerun!

Man I have to say SS sculpts are getting better it's the paint apps that kill the figures. This is a perfect example of what a great paint job will do for a figure. Awesome job Josh.

Anyone else have an issue with the hands not wanting to be swapped out? I can move the hands around, but I can't tug them out of the socket to put the alternate (gloved) hands on.

Dunk them in a cup of HOT water for a minute then pull gently.
