AJCG Posted January 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Thanks guys , I'm still waiting for the machined tips, I will add new pics as soon as I get them. Also I might add a slight weathering, kind of a used look, nothing too dramatic. Cheers A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogueTrooper[TK] Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Brilliant Work Armando!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJCG Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Brilliant Work Armando!!!!!! Thanks Tom, I appreciate your kind words . Still not quite happy, weathering pass is coming this weekend and hopefully the mics next week. Them chin straps needs poppers and finally hard liner. It is a long project because ROTJ trooper are not as common as ANH or ESB. Cheers A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThayNerd[TK] Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Those looks great on the helmet. I need to get mine installed on mine. DO you have a tutorial of how you made the plug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zsavk[TK] Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Any chance you can tell me what color grey you used on the ears? Is it Humbrol #5 Dark Admiral Grey? Also the black outlining. Is that Matte black or gloss/satin? Im on this stage of finishing off my TE as well I hope it turns out as nice as yours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeR Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Looks really sweet A. I say weather it, the originals had glue streaks all over them and were pretty crappy! Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJCG Posted February 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Thanks guys to all of you. It is coming along nicely I think but still far away of what I have in mind. I know, I'm super slow I hope the wait will be worthy... Cheers A Those looks great on the helmet. I need to get mine installed on mine. DO you have a tutorial of how you made the plug? Thanks my friend , yes those machined tips are really nice. Let me take pics of my machined tips and I will add a quick tutorial by the weekend. Hang in there. Any chance you can tell me what color grey you used on the ears? Is it Humbrol #5 Dark Admiral Grey? Also the black outlining. Is that Matte black or gloss/satin? Im on this stage of finishing off my TE as well I hope it turns out as nice as yours! Zsavk, the gray color I'm using it is Humbrol #5,the black color in the helmet is the same for the ears cups as well. I hope this helps. Looks really sweet A. I say weather it, the originals had glue streaks all over them and were pretty crappy! Joe Thanks Joe, It is getting closer. Weathering will be a great plus I think. I would like to add different color tones. I'm not sure yet. I'm currently studing some pics to do that. Finally finished! Awesome work Hey Verne,it is not ready yet, I still need to add the weathering, hard liner and poppers for the chin straps. I'm studing to add new decals as well. I'm glad you like it.
