Thanks. I'm a pretty patient guy, but it's now been over a year and a half and I have no idea what's going on. :confused:

Such beautiful stuff!

Thanks for the update, Glenn. Good to know. The wait wasn't so much an issue as it was the not knowing. :duff

And I know you're working your fingers to the nub and have your plate pretty full, but I was wondering if I could buy a few unpainted ANH bits as well - dome and such for replacements on my Sideshow Vader? Just PM me if you get the chance. Thanks, mate!

some sections of Microjows ANH, he requested a replica of the screen used prop pieces...firstly ALOT of the prop parts were wonky for want of a better word and mostly hand painted, scratched ,chipped and generally in pretty poor condition...Ive tried to capture this in one sixth, using alot of screen shots..
codpiece, with wear and scuffing..

the chest armors central ridge is noticeably off centre on the prop piece...and the armor appeared to be brush painted, the dome too seems pretty rough when you study the movie stills,

im flat out of these vaders now so i hope for you to see alot of stuff from now on, the ones ive got finished here will be sent very soon, but having no current job has made things tight.Micro Js and snakeaters will have better pics taken tomorrow, Vader Als comtechs and the other outstanding are in there final stages, as they use a HT base body('cept Vader als) its been a real challenge to get all the greebies inside...

Uggghhh....INCREDIBLE. Thanks for the update Glenn.

That is an awesome, awesome thing from Dave Prowse too, what a nice guy. The bust you made him was beautiful.
 
Gonna have to sort your sig out Glenn didnt realise that since the forum tweaks a few images were outta wack, including your sig also need to crack on with some major updates to your site.

If I get chance Ill send you a catch up email . . I know things have been a bit hectic so you struggle to reply ;)
 
Hey Glenn, your new pics are great! Thanks for the update. I would like to get a replacement dome for Sideshow Vader (Your pm is full...your popularity never ceases to amaze me). Could you shoot me a pm?
