Any tips on doing Wedge’s helmet? Is there a decal set you use? I realize it’s basic but I’m leery on screwing up the Luke helmet, even if it’s a spare!Thanks guys. I hope to finish him this weekend.View attachment 549797
I would like to know, as well. I've got two spare SS X-Wing Luke figures ready to convert one to Wedge and the other to either Biggs or with a bigger body, Porkins. I do love your Blue Leader figure, Chakaman.Any tips on doing Wedge’s helmet? Is there a decal set you use? I realize it’s basic but I’m leery on screwing up the Luke helmet, even if it’s a spare!
Awesome. I was thinking the same re: Porkins. I’ve seen one out there using a Gentle Giant sculpt but the 1/6 Big Deal figure, with some light paintwork and the deagostini helmet seem like a good starting point.I would like to know, as well.

I saved some pics and info from zebraten (AKA "ChiliDoug") who did a great looking custom Porkins. I don't mean to hijack Chakaman's thread, though.Awesome. I was thinking the same re: Porkins.

You bet. He also has a few other waterslide decal sets besides Wedge.Thank you so much, Chakaman! That looks fantastic.
(Off to Ebay to search for those decals!...)
Its all good Paul. I reached out to him last year about doing a Red Leader decal set, he came through. I would like to see him do a Red 6 set.I only have a few Rebel figures (mainly Imperials) and also have an X-wing Luke who’s been boxed up for a couple years in hopes of a Jek Porkins custom to display him with - my 2nd favourite Pilot. Dunno… maybe the name just stuck when I was kid. But I reached out to Bad Mother and sent him some refs of different angles of the Red 6 helmet. Maybe something will come from this
Minor hijack… sorry Chris
Thanks for the update! No rush.Heard back and he will be working on a 1/6 Porkins and will have to design himself since we both could not find clear images of the markings. It will most likely be some time before he has them complete as there are many more requests he’s working on getting out but assured they will come… just not anytime soon.
