TK-9805 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 Woah! That is some AWESOME armor Tom!!! Quote
TC5800[501st] Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 I used bottles of acrylic paint from Tamija for weathering. I also used two different weathering kits for military models from them as well. It comes in what I describe as a "lady's make-up case" set-up. http://www.tamiya.com/ I did some of the same type of weathering as you did....painted it black under and sanded, scraped off the top white coat. Looks pretty well done. Building a good Clone takes a ton of work. Be patient and do it right. Ask questions. If you have questions or need help let me know Vod. Quote
KitFistoFTW Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 this has to be my favorite clone armor color scheme out there Commander Gree Clone 1004 Quote
TK8280 Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Posted November 16, 2007 this has to be my favorite clone armor color scheme out thereCommander Gree Clone 1004 Yeah, but I think there is too many "commanders" in the clone ranks, and there are only a few that look good IMO Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 17, 2007 Report Posted November 17, 2007 For some reason I like the EPII better than EPIII, though that doesn't mean I don't like EPIII. Just I like EPII better... Quote

General Fidelis[501st] Posted November 17, 2007 Report Posted November 17, 2007 Yeah, but the only problem with doing an EPII clone is finding a decent looking helmet Word. I'm waiting to see what SciFire comes up with. They're making slow progress on an original EII (phase I) bucket. C6 is the best out there right now, but it's friggin' rare and, IMHO, the jowl is too big. Of course, I wouldn't kick it out of bed. Quote

TK8280 Posted November 19, 2007 Author Report Posted November 19, 2007 Ok, my project is still slowly moving foreword... I've been trying to fit my thighs properly, but they haven't come out looking right yet, My shins have been painted, and I am still contemplating making them completely seamless My forearms and biceps are prepped for bondo... My elbows are done except for weathering, BUT they still don't look that great to me Quote
