Super great to see paint on those plates!!!
Yep....hopefully I get time soon to do some more. I'm running short of some paints. Got a few other greens but they are darker and too green. Might have a plate or two that are slightly different green
i really like how the Fett / Protector colours look together.

Been looking at the plates last few nights....not 100% happy with the colour. I used straight humbrol Matt 78, I think I might try a lighter shade...add in some white or light grey.

Everything is looking really good!
I think that dulling the green with some light grey is a good idea...
Can't wait to see how it comes out.

Thanks mate, mucking around a bit today. Getting a bit of texture showing. The plate needs a lot more work and clean up, I'll do a certain amount then leave until I do similar with the other plates....then try get a fairly uniform look

Thanks guys...hhhmmm I'm not real happy with it so far, I like the texture that showing on the plate....but I don't really like the colour, I think I'll try finding a place with some more humbrol paint....76 or 78.... and lighten it a shade or two. Maybe one plate slightly darker

Damage is average too

I really like the idea of leaving one plate darker...I'm a sucker for asymmetrical design.
Maybe more damage (like your helmet...which is AMAZING!)..
All that said, it's looking really terrific!

Thanks mate... I don’t like the damage at all... not enough... and the shapes
Need to find some 78 green then start again  :laugh:

Just went to local toyworld after work....surprised it was open, so got some humbrol 78, some white...some other greens too
Forgot to get silver  ???....tomorrow  :laugh:

No new update on plates...can't be bothered at moment
Decided to look at jaig eyes...more size and colour.... this is only size at moment. I don't have a printer at home.


Also installed an aluminium bordon...not right way up or like Fetts. I gave it the  :o expression....in shock at being on my awesome bucket  :laugh: :laugh:....yeah I've got issues  :laugh:

So much yes. This is looking awesome dude. Personally I would go white eyes but I may be biased a little bit - honestly both colors look great on your bucket  :o

Thanks vod. I like the black. I don't plan on having freshly painted on black.. the look I'll try to get is old, faded and worn. I'll look at the humbrol #67 thanks Jett. The dome needs work and repaint. The weathers a bit crap at moment, prob won't get to paint for a bit....

Not really an update...just reuploading a few pics, sorry for removing them

Chest armour needs repainting....better colours....contrast etc

Gauntlets need serious attention to finish...accessories, hoses, hinges


Start of a Jodo inspired ee3 rifle

Few more grenades

Bit more to come as I find bits

Thanks Breyo ....it'll get there  :laugh:....just warming up, been Luke warm too long  :laugh:
Niiiice....... it's good to see you back.  :D
Thanks Jett, im in a better mental spot...was mucking around with Jodo rifle kit I got from dha brahl...( thanks mate)... looking at some Jodo pics and got a bit inspired....Jodo Kast is awesome. Should have a tv show on him  :laugh:
Got a few ideas for a few other things, ordered a nemrod holster from delta13 last night. Few aluminium rods and bars coming for a few 🤔 Experiments. Feeling a little refreshed
A few more pics to upload that I found on dented helmet. Haven't really made progress...a bit of paint on jetpack which I'm not really happy with. (The colour isn't right)
Some oldies


Jetpack still masked...the cylinders on sides are a bit to dark


Few extras....not sure about

Belt set up will change...different holster, maybe a few less pouches too

Cookie shot  :laugh: :laugh:


I'll get some better pics of pieces as I go, or finish something

Here's something else that's in the works....from memory I think it was going to be like Luke's esb blaster....roughly....bit of Hans dl44 too

Still need to find a few bits...sonic beam weapon, black Wookiee braid
I think I have enough bits and pieces....may get some more inspiration from Jodo Kast though
Work out some electronics too

Few more pics...and a few ideas from "twin engines of destruction"
Plate placement

Other shoulder

Few goodies together, the esb flame unit is still a wip....

Thinking of trying to make something like these....toxins and antidotes

I like this too....not much to go by, but the idea 🤔

Also have something like these on the way
