I went ahead and finally assembled this.
Next step is to put on a layer of epoxy filler, then prime, then paint, detail, weather.

Just finished a real Margolin-based DDC Defender Leia blaster, which is now displayed in my curio cabinet.
And my collection of parts for a ROTJ build. I'm still looking for an accurate rear flared Margolin slide for the ANH version. But with a screen accurate spare ROTJ barrel/sight assembly, I could easily swap the barrel, takedown block, and greeblies to configure two faithful Leia blasters.

A bit of progress on the ANH helmet, its has a nice weight to it and seems pretty rigid.
Four pieces become one.
(Goggles are a temporary puck to make the goggles when the perspex arrives)
I want to make goggles slide up into helmet but also look nice and tidy so working on a hidden channel guide.
I also printed the data pad for the Flightsuit sleeve and a Mike tip and All important hose connector.

The hardest part will be coming up with a colour pallet for the lid which is different if I can.
Or..
I might just might go with a colour combo Ive already used before on a different kinda outfit
SCREAMINYELLOW helped me with a bad motivator, so excited to do this!
A quick project this afternoon:

Think this is done and coming of the workbench. First time doing anything like this, mostly stick to mechanical. Printed on my A1, removed the layer lines the best I could without overly spoiling the texture and sculpture. Went for how he was walking onto the tantive after going nuts with his saber. Eyes flowing with the darkside, loosing the pigment in his skin, eye sockets starting to darkening, and scars less than fresh. Did a base of a standard tone, added skin variation and reds, then went over the whole thing with a lighter skin tone and finally the reds, pinks and blacks. I'm not unhappy with it but wish I had the skill for more realism. Anyway, thanks for looking. Ben
Those eyes!!! Wicked!
Finished!
Well…sort of…
I’ve got to create a lightbox for it.
I may be too lazy for that task and may pass this on to someone else, in the Junkyard. This was more trouble than my photos show with layers upon layers of caked on paint that I had to remove from the Cougthrie light part, in addition to the weathering applied.
