I'm new to the customizing stuff with these figures. How did you go about weathering the coat? That looks great. I've only glued down the collar. About as far as my talents would take me.

Put a little of that stuff on and you're good to go. Although I must tell you that I also took out the lining of the jacket so it would lay better. Not sure if it does or not but I like the feel of it. I mat go over it with some paints eventually.

Once I find a Kato, I'll sell you my SS!
Well that's awesome and all, but by the time you find one, I'm sure his Radiers jackets will be out and someone will be selling off their LC/CS jackets.
I don't I'll ever be able to afford a Kato piece.
Thanks!!! I will probably snag me a bottle of this.
He does have some pretty cool Indy costume stuff. After seeing that, I'm thinking I just found my halloween costume for the next few years to come.

Agreed, I own one and love it.
I followed Fiend's lead and took the lining out of the arms on a spare jacket I had. I didn't take the lining out anywhere else. Left about 1/4 inch of lining around the wrist so it still looks like the lining is there looking at him. It makes a difference. I may try to weather it a bit.
Would help a lot if I had a narrow shouldered body with the sculpted torso instead of that damn TTM-19.

That Indy set by Mfisher is awesome. Makes the Indy look so much better. Easily one of my best purchases this year.

Glue that collar down and you're set to go. And hey, is that a repaint of the SS sculpt? Looks pretty good. I haven't seen yours before I don't think. And yeah, the TTM-19 arms are not good for Indy. I put some Soldier Story arms on mine but they are a tad too long so Im just going to break up one of my narrow TT's one day.The shoulders look great though.
You really should. It's cheap and the bottle they give you will last a long time. Mine came in what looks like an empty spice container. Like the kind cinnamon comes it. It's plenty as you only need a little to do the job. I have a feeling mine is going to last years.
That's good to know. What's the easiest and/or cleanest way to apply this? Just put some in a bowl and brush it on?
Yeah. It really is that simple. I just put the figure on a piece of paper towel and using a small tipped brush dip it into the container ( no need for a bowl), knock off excess "dirt" and apply where needed. I even got some one the Indy stand but I just left i there because it fit.
