My Life-Size Han Solo In Carbonite Project - 2nd Attempt

Love the lights! Great job
Do a search for Stormrider, but be patient, he has much going on right now. Be sure to read his post, rather than just PM / emailing him.
This will be for sale, but I am postponing it until I get the materials to start my 3rd and final Han. I haven't settled on a final price yet.
thank you AnakinSkywalker

Stormrider on dented helmet is selling his full front casts of HIC now as a limited run. I just ordered mine and he needs a minimum of three orders so I thought Id share in case anyone else is interested in taking on this project. Message me for a link or check out the Cargo Hold Board on that site.
I think the problem I keep having in my painting process is dealing with even tones when I should let it me imperfect. I'm using a spray called Weathered Steel from rustoleum and it's got an awesome effect, but it's hard to make look even around the cabinet frame. I now keep coming across photos of the carbonite and have to remind myself that making it all even is probably not the desired effect to have because it isn't supposed to be that way!
I need to update my thread of progress. I take lots of photos, but I never put them up except on my facebook.
Love that Death Star Hangar backdrop!

When I switched web hosting providers this thread lost all the photos. I ended up losing some pics and video, but since this thread has over 40,000 views and because I think I was the first one who pioneered the Elmers glue technique for the carbonite, I wanted to keep the thread alive. There have been so many fantastic HIC builds the last few years that mine has been basically rendered irrelevant; but I wanted to update it anyway for reference. I have re-posted most of the pics and added one final one below of HIC in his new location in my Death Star Hangar!

I get a lot of messages asking for dimensions so I thought I would post this. I am not the creator and don't take credit for these blueprints, can't even remember where I got these, maybe the HIC Builders Club? Had them for a few years so I am not sure. The measurements are in mm. Hopefully it helps those who want to take on this project......

Glad to see people still checking out my thread and so many people trying my glue technique! Over 48,000 views, pretty cool.
I believed I used around 2, 2.5 gallons.
