  1. This is pretty sad, judging  by the pictures and the evidences presented  here there is little to no doubts at all that Mark work has been recasted. I have not been an active member here  for a while but recasting has never been allowed in this community. I can proudly say I get along with everyone  and I hate to take sides but this time  I stand  on Mark side. Sorry mate this happen ed to you.

     

    Cheers

    Thanks Nick, that is some serious affirmation...there are many good ones

     

    Cheers!

  3. I got a hero kit helmet from Paul about a year ago and after all this time I am very close to finish it. For my helmet I got inspired on the hero helmet that appears on Tantive IV right after Vader gets on the ship. It is very short appearance on the film but I managed to find some reference pictures that guide me in the process to finalize it. At this point I am pretty much done except the weathering and the elastic straps, all the details are hand painted of course! I will add more pics very soon with the weathering pass. In the meantime this are some pics of my progress

  4. sweet! i used to live on 3rd and folsom. i moved recently. how come you don't join the 501st?

     

    Awesome job! I really love it. It is beautiful :duim: . This is the second PP helmet I have seen finished so far and what it called my attention the most is how glossy the white paint shows on both. I really dig as well the primer inside. can I asked which brand and color you used for yours?

    Are you adding the straps?

     

     

    Do you still live on downtown? I never thought about join the 501st yo be honest...probably because I am quite busy already.

     

    Great job again

  5. I was so tempted to do some paint runs. But it just didnt happen and i didnt want to ruin something.

     

    Armando, what part of the city? Sidenote: did you use to own a s2000? It might be a weird question.

     

    I live right next Van Ness...nope i don't own a s2000 :)

     

    I really like the way you r helmet is looking Joey. I also suspect the helmet may chip off around the chin area. I might try for mine TM' s neck trim.

     

    Cheers

  6. Thanks guys! Its rustoleum gloss white. 2 coats. There is primer and it seems to hold the paint well. But if i use my nail to scratch it, it shows the khaki color.

     

    Yeah Armando! Im in san francisco. How about you?

     

    Thats is the same I used for my previous lids, except the TE HDPE I painted years ago. For that one used Krylon White Gloss for plastics. For that helmet I slightly scrab the surface with a green scotch brite with water. That helmet never chip...

     

    Joey I live in SF as well ;) LOL
