Peeled-off masking fluid from painting a Boba Fett helmet?
32 V2 stencil leftovers that I hoard for other projectsPeeled-off masking fluid from painting a Boba Fett helmet?
GorgeousMade some more progress on my ESB Stunt Skywalker Hilt…
(The clamp is deliberately upside down as this supposed to be the V3 clamp before it was repurposed for the ROTJ Shared Stunt / V3 Skywalker hilt)

There is a thread coming out very soon about the dagobah belt hanger, along with a video from was wacky guy who hangs out in a shed… I personally don’t trust the guy but..Where did the idea of the V3 clamp come from?
If you do want to put ears on it, I've seen this prop used as a belt hanger in a dagobah scene, with bunny ears, but with no retaining ring holding them together

Anyway! 100% positive the v3 clamp didn’t come from the dagobah saber.
Seems like it’s under the same idea though, a random stunt graflex had mounting screws located in the clamp rather than the top of the hilt
With all the photos out there, I have yet to see the v3 clamp (with holes) on anything else besides the v3 in rotj
That makes sense to me.I always took it to be a metal graflex that was painted silver, to cut down the reflection. And the dark spots showing through are where the paint flecked revealing the plating underneith
Beats the sh1t out of me, I’ve never seen a rivet with that size head. I always took it as “cap bolts” but I don’t have much experience with that graflexRivets or screws….what is the consensus regarding what we are seeing here?

They look to be rounder and prouder than a standard rivet…and almost look like round head screws.
This hilt also appears to possibly be a rubber or resin casting of whatever the original hilt may have been? (There appears to be “black” under what appears to be silver paint?)
