Re: Lopie's Customs "Bossk Repaint"

what did you use to strip the paint down with. I would not mind to try it my self once you find out what the correct color of green to use.

Hi! I agree with kl241. Actually new version figure has a mix of colours between yellow and green. I would apply a soft layer of green colour on the original yellow.

Lopi, I think your repainted is a bit too green.

SS's V2 looks like it has v1's ochre as a base with a khaki/muddy-green washed over it. IMHO I would try to get back a bit of the original ochre in the skin tone.

Acetone and alcohol mix.

Been doing some building myself, its a bit slow going as of late waiting for LEDs to come in. I bought to much wood so I'm building two of these; I casted a few bits and did some weathering and its coming along nicely I think.

Thanks Chris. Here is an update I casted the panel in a clear resin, I'll put the light behind the panel and it will light up the buttons.




I'm still waiting on light but this is just a test, I wanted to see what it looks like.

Thanks,
The lower grill was made from stirring sticks cut and glued together, and the top grill is from my wife's espresso machine. I cast them all so I could have doubles.

Re: Lopie's Customs "1/6 Han in Carbonite"

Wow! gluing sticks together! You did a fantastic job! I can't wait to see it finished with the Han Carbonite in it. I have been planning on making something similar and you really set the bar high!

Re: Lopie's Customs "1/6 Han in Carbonite"

Thanks for the positive feedback. LEDs came in today, so I started getting those in place. I still have a lot to do, but its getting close to being done.
