TK-1287

Sorry to see you going

You could just get some white shoe polish and buff it on.

Better yet.. airbrush I do all of my painting with an airbrush.

I just use an x-acto and chop off the corners that are starting to peel.

Please excuse my stereotypical nerd voice.

I'm working on the video now Just need to edit it all together and post it up on YouTube.

Naw, the temperature wouldn't affect it. I believe that you may be too close to the helmet while painting, and you probably put the paint on too thick.

I'll be attending I'll be bringing my ESB Stormtrooper and ESB Boba Fett.

It's not so much the Knee plate being wrong, it's the leg in general. I plan to replace my AP shins with TM eventually.

It was called Eco-Flo, it's an acrylic Leather Paint. Picked it up at Tandy Leather. To prep the leather, I just scrubbed the boots with Acetone to remove the protective wax coating, and then I applied the paint by brush. I plan to do a video tutorial to post up on YouTube.

Haven't posted in a while but here we go, haha. Need to get this thing done for next weekend at LegoLand in Carlsbad, CA. Abdomen buttons cut out. E-6000'd on. Painted. Strips cut and E-6000'd on. Belt Assembled. Elastic double sided to connect drop boxes. Me being cool. Black & White boots Black Elastic Elastic coloured with Leather Paint (can be removed with acetone if needed) Boot with Leg armour

TUTORIAL POSTED! Just got done dying my left boot, I decided to dye one first, then make a tutorial on the 2nd. Dying process was fairly easy, and I actually used Leather Paint to do the colouring. Only thing I can't figure out is dying the elastic white, if I use enough of the leather paint it will work, but if you guys have any recommendations, please let me know Andy TK-1287 How do you guys think it turned out?

Man, I thought he was a toy too. You just have that Action Figure pose in the first photo.

Looking forward to seeing it!!

Nice find there! I'd love to see a non-shopped version of it! I wonder if one will ever surface..

Joanns?

Congratulations Mark!!

Doesn't help without the sellers name :/

You can pick up some super-accurate shoulder bells from John Danter, he's also in the UK.

My ESB will be done in a few weeks Bought my leather dye today as a matter of fact!!

I have no idea what the Laws suit is like, but the TE and AP come from relatively the same source; both are good kits for your size.

I really hate CAboots, I prefer the dyed white leather jodhpurs.

Any close up shots of the holster to show that it is riveted on?

Great Tutorial!!

Out of curiosity, who makes fiberglass armour?
