Just a little rust. I left it outside this summer for a few days by accident while I was working on a remodeling project.

Ow yeah, thats what I meant.

I picked up this Dragon in Dreams headsculpt, I think it will make a great looking pilot....

He will be a fine addition to Red Squadron.

I cracked open my Tomy helmet and dremmelled out quite a bit of the interior plastic. Once I am ready for it to stay on for good, I will glue it back together and repaint the seam. Its not sitting exactly how I want right now, but you get the idea.

Well played sir, well played.

A shot of "Ed 10" before the vest is sprayed.....

Gloves......check!!!

3 vests done, just some touchups to do...

A quick shot of the wardrobe department....

mockup of my pilot with vest on. I will bend it to form to the body better and add the side straps...

I will probably add some small metal studs to the vest straps.

Thanks guys. Im pretty busy this weekend with "other stuff", but hope to finish these guys in the coming weeks.

I wish I had some gloves to spare guys. I have been hoarding gloves, outfits, Tomy helmets the past couple of years for such a project. Army building at this scale can be a challenge sometimes.

Really enjoying the progress on these, Chris! Is that the Hasbro Biggs head with a repaint? That holds up really well.

 

[Solo_bones]

Dude! Can't wait to see your Wuher complete, as well.

The pilots are looking like another awesome project.

Thanks X! Yes, thats the Hasbro Biggs that I repainted. The Tomy helmet makes it looks pretty good. Some of the Hasbro sculpts arent too bad. Dooku is another good one.

Thanks Will. Wuher is on my list. I have sculpted the neck and exposed chest area. I need to fatten him up and give his tunic a tea bath.

I also need to get my Jawa's finished. I just need to find a couple of bodies and get cracking on them.
