Re: ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD WIP (big pic heavy)

Slapped the hard parts on for a test fit.

The spacing is off because it's only taped on for now,

Re: ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD WIP (big pic heavy)

Made the shin tools and weathered the jumpsuit/pouches/spats

I also installed the visor and pre-shaded the helmet

I also had to fabricate a new bottom cover . The gauntlets were missing it when i got them, I contacted the maker (fettpride) about it over 3 months ago, but he still never sent it.
So i made this one yesterday
This one is Laser cut Styrene

Out of all the SW characters, Fett is by far the most interesting and that suit looks awesome! Well done

umm...
the title does say "ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD" :lol
I'm not one of those cross-dressers that does the ESB helmet on the ROTJ costume.

Small update today
weather and work has put a serious stranglehold on this project
The JP is getting close to done
I took a quick pic of it before I sprayed the Blue.

I hope to spray the Blue in about an hour or so.

Re: ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD WIP (big pic heavy)

I didn't spray the Blue yet, i got sidetracked with the bucket.

I also screwed up the vest, but i had it repaired and sized down a tad.

You also ended your sentence in a preposition, but I'm not a Grammar Nazi.


ManofWar made the boots.

Re: ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD WIP (big pic heavy)

It looks really nice S1P. Are you using Floquil or Humbrols for the helmet?

 

[slave1pilot]

Re: ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD WIP (big pic heavy)

Mostly Floquil, with some Testors Model Master paints replacing colors no longer in Production.
BTW_ i hate the Testors paints.

Re: ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD WIP (big pic heavy)

Was kinda busy this morning, so i didn't get anything done like I wanted.
However, i did do a test fit after getting the armor attached in order to see how everything fit together minus the Jetpack.

We are getting pretty close now. (obvously,the vest still needs weathering)

And one without flash

disregard the wire coming from the chest plate, it's for the chest lights and I haven't routed it yet.

Seeing this going from start to finish, piece by piece, is so amazing to watch.

Wowsers! Amazing work, any chance of a tutorial on your paint work or is that a trade secret ;-)

Nope, no tutorial.

I did spray the red on the helmet today .
The main colors on the helmet are done, now I gotta add all the details.

Re: ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD WIP (big pic heavy)

Looks really nice. Have you used Spidey's colour list? Would be possible to see a pic of the back?

 

[slave1pilot]

Re: ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD WIP (big pic heavy)

I started with Spidey's color list on the helmet, but the upper cheek color was too light, so I had to redo that area.

I'm going to try and finish up the helmet tonight
I'll take more pics when it's done.

Re: ROTJ BOBA FETT BUILD WIP (big pic heavy)

I painted the Killstripes today and added some of the scratches etc. I also slapped the ears on for show.
I still need to add small details and weathering.
