Last But not least my updated Arc Commander Fordo
Had a Neyo helmet cast that was kicking around so thought I'd put it too use
Still needs a little touch up here and there
The base is just using up a poor cast and as with most things took on a life of its own
Hope you guys like
As always comments welcome















 
Oh almost forgot while on the subject of bases what do you think to this ?
Not an exclusive base but another transfer, sweet...... am planning on more, can't see me ever getting the exclusive bases so I will just go the poor man option



 
nice stuff! kadman is a completest and only uses original stuff..as cool as the sand bases are....
love the new bases as well..very cool!
also..umm..my deviss is cooler..lol..jk..maybe...heh...some great stuff..wondering if you were still around or not...hadnt heard back from ya in a bit...worried and stuff..anywho..great great stuff...
 
Well, it's Christmas Eve in old Blighty and I'm well ready for the festivities.

I would just Like to say that without all you guys ,and the excellent customs that you do here , this year would have been a really dull one.
I know I don't participate as much as I should, but to say that all the fantastic work here has brought me immense joy and relaxation from the daily drudgery of life would be a vast understatement.

To all, I would wish you the happiest of Christmas cheer and that all you hopes and wishes come true in the next year.

Been working on these two over the last week while work has been quiet and actually had some early finishes.

They are at the first coat stage but I think you'll be able to guess who they are













Here's a color comparison to the 41st Elite clone.
I wanted them a Little darker but will have to wait till I get My Commander Wolffe to see if I got it anywhere close

 
I see a blind trooper and a crying trooper :)

Are you masking at all or just using a brush. Any tips you discovered? I tried painting my Jango helmet and failed miserably. Jagged edges, paint coming off with the tape etc.
 
a tip...take the tape off when the paint is still a bit wet and not dried completely(learned that from american restoration on tv)....it helps with the peeling, etc...i did that with my new clone and it helped a lot...

btw..."pete"...if that is your real name..lol..
i really want to do a gray clone now..gee..thanks...
actually ive had one in the works for a bit..just never really did anything with him.may have to dig him back out and see what needs to be done...

Natedog, you bad boy, trust you to see that, suppose you'll be singing send in the clones next, oops Clowns :pfft: :lol

Masked all the areas off with Tamiya Masking Tape and Airbrushed ( now that I have a decent compressor :yess:)
Tips wise found that SSC clone armor isn't pure white.
I add a tiny bit of Citadel Goblin Green to the mix and it completely changes the look when you paint it.
Also use Citadel purity seal between different color coats to lock it down.
If you go wrong you can use a little spirit to remove what you have just painted should it go wrong

Chakaman:

Pete, those are going to look great with Wolffe when he finally arrives. Nice work as usual.

Chaka, As always kind words from the Master

Spidy, well remembered and quite correct ,always take the tape off after 10-15 mins ,also when pulling the tape off pull it back on it's self so almost touching the surface, it will give you the cleanest cut on the paint ( If That makes sense)

And YES my name is Earl ..... NO! Pete :rotfl
I'm so glad I could Motivate you to get back into the Star Wars World :nana:
 
Liking the work man. Always busy with your customs but guess you are putting all the stuff you bought off me to good use.
