That looks awesome, james!!!

That photo does look good. Looks like you also disguised the Tauntaun's seam with the reins.

Using flour though...

Han's expression doesn't say fun guy at the moment, but in a few months he might be nothing but fungi.

As I mentioned, just pick up some white Fuller's earth. There are a few other good snow methods as well. And a few ways to make the coat look heavier/damp.

DON'T! No water and flour! You will make Han Solo into a Han Doughlo.

 

[DiFabio]

Yeah, I cringed at that Wor-Gar.

The tailoring isn't as nice as in the prototype. It's much more bulky and he looks like a stuffed sausage. It could be that they had to make the coat a bit bigger to allow the Bespin jacket to fit underneath. I hope it's something that can be futzed away.

Don't worry Wor-Gar, I chuckled

Man, even from a distance the narrowed eyes look so much better. And also more accurate, since, you know, Han kinda should be squinting a bit with all the blinding snow and everything.

Looking at those photos I'm thinking the opposite.

The shoulders look better on the production. On the proto it looks like there's too much material which bags out and folds back in as it comes down the arm.

The filling out could well be down to the addition of the extra jacket underneath.

 

[davejames]

The color of the coat looks better as well (at least against what they previously photoshopped it to be).

My Hoth set up is waiting for Han.

It's a trap!!!!

The blue right? The pre-prod photos were manipulated to color the coat blue.

The production coat is as tricky as the film itself.

I agree the shoulders are better, but the sleeves and chest/torso area look too bulky, IMO. I'm hoping it's futzable.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing... I really like how the final outfit turned out. And most of the sculpt and paint is solid... just don't like the 1,000 mile stare he's got

The eyes are fixable depending how you display him. The peak of the cap ought to create a natural shadow as long as you don't shine a light in his face.

The only other thing I don't like is the length of the leg strap for the holster. It's as though they over-compensated for the thickness of the trousers.

But this should be a simple fix. Cut a piece off the strap and re-glue the magnet on the new end. (On second thoughts that might not be a magnet).

Yeah, either one looks fine, but personally I'm hoping it's closer to the more muted first color. Because even at it's "bluest" in the movie, it's still not a particularly rich blue.

A little something for everybody!

It was so bad, even I didn't comment and that's saying something. Hang your head in shame.
