[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

@SorenM:   hm will think about. I'm way fed with it after all ,-)  and the wire-mounting, man , this was a mess  as they all the time slipped away

 

Yes I have recieved the stand. That was great info!

Wires, 4 loops

 

[Another Doopy Doos E-11, pimped build..]

Looks good

Wow you must definitely have seen some action with that blaster LOL, nice work

 

 

 WE FIGHT DIRTY

[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

I must say that it looks quite battered, and thus fits a Sandtrooper well, again it all comes down to preference. It is a nice build indeed.

If you have not seen my build, you could check it out, to see a more subtle weathering....

But again, nice blaster!

 

Thank You Soren, I will do so!

[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

 

it maybe or DOES look extreme. Must admit I'm bit in a hurry after building on it now I think more than 6 months and I go to holidays

and I have an armor & backpack to build together.  Overpaint is possible but I actually I think I only so far gona add the 4loop wire and thats it.

The overall result I think I will see when the armor is done.

 

Colors for sandy weathering I used:

first XF-60 acryl Tamya (dark yellow flat)

then XF-59 acryl tamya (yellow flat)

and last XF-68 acryl Tamya (brown flat)

Nice weathering, a little more than I personally like, but taste cannot be discussed☺

Just a few minor points. The scope is made of brass, and the screws as well, so the weathering should be brass....

 

Yeah thought so, though I tried to make it only slight.

 

About the brass maybe then with the next pic it looks better, as I made a sandy weathering after,

as I am building a TD.

Now some more pics about aging / weathering  where I tried to take notice of

where the gun will have most damage or aging, so less on top areas and more

on low areas and sides:

 

Generally I used dry-paint technique. Wich means to take a good sucking towel (householdpaper)

put in the brush

brush it out on towel until there is almost no more color on it

Swift over edges and unflat surfaces

 

NOTE:   Scope lens(es) and counternumber and glass I have mounted AFTER the aging

 

1) basicly with Iron revell 91 flat email-color

 

[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

Looks absolutely fantastic!  I have used your thread as one of my sources when I started building my own e-11

 

thank You

Actual look before weathering, what I am doing actually:

 

[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

and now I went on to coat / varnish the thing

 

1 grip I coated in gloss, the rest then in flat

[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

^{Different colors here and the trigger in black. The folding stock arm I later have repainted with the same black spray again that I generally used for the gun.}

^{Its just that with brushpainting the smaller details, there were some dots and I painted the arm over with black flat acryl, wich looks a bit different and didnt}

^{really satisfy.}

Latest corrections (thanks to: TK Bondservnt 2392)

 

1) bolt in metal and strip with silver

[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

Okay, thanks :-)

 

here an update about this:

 

grip/handle all in black gloss now

 

 

and the bolt (thanks for pic bondservnt!)

not so sure about the flat bottom end if silver too

can be overpainted

 

[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

Here also the "grip handle" or how I understood it

Maybe by luck I saw a small pistol on the net somewhere

where only the hatched part is glossy.

 

The area arround ist still flat. I think that pic shows that well.

 

@Bondservnt: what You  think ?

 

[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

More pics:

 

The bolt.

 

I dont know - because of wording - whats meant with center strip

maincolor now metal / metalgray

 

is it - here - that flat part on the side that needs to be silver ???

 

 

 

or is it that one looked from front ?

 

[E-11 ANH Doopydoo kit - work in progress]

Great work!

 

all you need now is to make the grip handle gloss.

everything else is shaping up quite well.

 

there are some suggestions I'd make, but I'll wait until you're complete to offer them up for consideration!

 

some simple color correction on the  bolt in paint scheme. the strip in the center of the bolt should be gunmetal silver

and the bolt itself is more of a grey steel color, like a two tone set of colors.

 

again the mods you've made really help to make it look more real.

only a few paint details left for a perfect finish!

 

Hi. Lot of thanks!

 

With bolt You mean this also , wich is actually black ? As I can remove it easily, would be possible. Do You have a picture maybe of how it should look?

Would help much. Grey steel I have.  Silver I would have to get. On most pics on internet they are black. I'll make a test and show.

Great looking blaster!  I am building my first blaster right now, and your thread really helped get through some particularly tricky parts!  Thanks for sharing your work!

 

That's a great compliment, thank You!
