Thanks guys i really appreciate it :)

A few pauldrons dorgs lol your sick but i love it.

C-Bob, can you share the nitty-gritty of what you did to Boba?
I just gotta know-:);)

It was originally a medi fett anyway but i had made it into a black and red mandalorian, who will get remade using the left over koto fett bits.

Well getting the greens right was an ass so i went for something as near as i could mix, and everything was taken from reference pics provided by the 501st and original pics of the suit.

He's on a slim TT and is as tall as a ss stormie now.

The bits i scratch built were the cloak,a new belt for the pouches, spats and the flamer unit.

I reworked some SS stormie gloves, modified the blaster with plasticard strips superglued on. I sculpted over some larger boots using milliputt but their still fine as their pretty solid anyway, and the gloves can still flex the fingers

The ankle spats i made from some black pleather which on the inside is white, and then just gave em a quick cream wash and added a darker wash around the edges to make it look like they are sewn and dirty and then just super glued them together at the back.

The gauntlets were fairly simple i added the 2 small tubes on the back of his right 1 where tubes would go by pushing 2 needles in and super gluing some plastic on from some bendy wire. On the left i scratch built the flame unit with plasticard held together by blu tac whilst i filled it with hot glue. Then i quickly popped the top and back on and pushed a few bits of wire inside for the flamer barrel whilst the glue was still hot. Then i super glued a few more bits of plasticard on the outside to give the flame unit the pronounced edging. I will go back and smooth the edges with milliputt but i wanted him done for now lol.

I used some koto pauldrons, chest plates and knees pads as their larger and i felt they looked better. I dremeled them down on the back and the chest plates got a repaint including the blue around the chest emblem. Oh i also made some straps for the kness plates using some pleather again and just superglued em together.

The jet pack, side waist bags, armour, helmet, gauntlets all got a complete repaint and then just weathered.

Here's a few reference bits for ya as the dented helmet is great.

no shop, but an exhibition next month in Lahndan, group show affair, where I'll be showing oils and knocking out prints like a cockney grocer!
 
Darn that Fett is looking SHARP!!!!

BIG G if you need P gloves let me know, they are an arse to cast up and will need drilling but I can sort you out some.


NOW.... SpeedyWee inspired me to get back to the clones... I keep trying to ween myself off em but ahh I love em... Cbob sorted me out with his Blue AirBourn and Thire (his was better than mine) and now I want to make Commander Bly and another Gree and I cant get enough of em!!

Feroze (Mary) also wants a Bly and because she is so busy with her knitting and basket weaving clubs I said I would bash one out for her...... hummmm

So its Mary's Birthday next week (bless she is only 21) so I want to get a Bly done by then....

So here's what we have so far.....

Thank you kindly mate but if they are a _____ to cast (dremelling isn`t a problem), I`m happy to wait for a future time knowing how many projects your juggling at present mate.
As for the clone, damn that is so sharp.
 
Cheers Mary, if you look close you can see thereis a wee spash of French Djon one his helm... owwww

:slap How silly of me to ask such a question lol. When I get around to doing a clone that is the head of choice for me. It was the Medi Jengo head heck I might use both down the line who knows. But Bly does look grand mate!
 
Mark you and the guys work here are bloody awesome, I spent over an hour looking thru this section and not once was I dissapointed.

Well done indeed and keep the amazing work coming.
