Re: WIP: Han in Carbonite (panels)

I added some more parts to my panels. Getting there! Just the electronics and 'locking mechanisms' to add (once I find out what they are ;))

Looks good. I especially like the cover to the 2nd Hero Panel. What colors did you use to paint your HIC?
 
Re: WIP: Han in Carbonite (panels)

All these HIC threads are triggering my impulsive buy nodes inside my brain.....
 
Re: WIP: Han in Carbonite (panels)

Vos painted my carbonite panel using VW LA7R Silver Bird and the surrounding block with VW LA7W Reflex Silver.

I painted the panels with Halfords Daewoo Stone Silver and Halfords Aluminium.

Looks good. I especially like the cover to the 2nd Hero Panel. What colors did you use to paint your HIC?
 
Re: WIP: Han in Carbonite (panels)

Panels almost complete and attached to block. The hero panel isn't firmly attached and is missing the knurled knobs, and the 2nd hero panel is missing electronics. The machined U clips are done and the hardware has arrived so they will be shipping next week.

Re: WIP: Han in Carbonite (panels)

Wow that's amazing!
Congrats on such an incredible replica - between you And Vos you've made a master piece!
 
Re: WIP: Han in Carbonite (panels)

Dude - I love this think. If you get a chance, please post more pictures of the entire piece.

I may have to put one of these on my build list.
 
Re: WIP: Han in Carbonite (panels)

I only have a crappy camera and whenever I try taking wide shots of the full thing they come out blurry and mirky. There just isn't enough light in the room and no flash.

Yes, yes. More pics! This piece is sweet! :love
 
Re: WIP: Han in Carbonite (panels)

Tried to get some shots of the full thing.

Also hooked up the 2nd panel electronics today. The little cylindrical greeblie is actually a spring loaded switch for cycling through the square LEDs flash sequences. Darth Chromer is a genius.

Re: WIP: Han in Carbonite (panels)

I'm confused -- you did a non-lit top left (facing it) panel. However, in the scene where Fett is escorting Solo through the hallways you see that panel has a green lit panel. Where can we see it without the lit panel?
