Looks awesome Vod keep up the work I'm watching this one very closely. Love the helmet I may pick the file up to print it just for the shelf.

Looking GREAT! Having a hard time deciding between the Ironside and the NME Stalker for my eventual post-imperial kit, and this is a strong case for the Ironside.

Wow that helmet is Amazing!  :o Did you design it yourself or is it from a file available?

Really digging where this is going dude. That weathering on the bucket is top notch. Very well done.

My only 2 cents, based off of your concept art, would be to add the sigil to one of the shoulder bells instead of the chest plate - for some reason it just looks "off" to me with it being placed there.

Another progress dump! Finished up my bucket today  :D

Masked off my stripes by tracing 12 of boba’s stripes on to painters tape and cutting them out with an exacto blade. The. I masked off the damage with masking fluid and airbrushed a light to dark orange gradient.









Then I installed my visor and padding and he’s all done! Moving on to the chest plates next.

Small update!

I ended up printing 3 different chest sizes and two different files before I actually got one I ended up being full happy with. Here's the raw print!



I also messed around with some assets from mando creator now that they've added more post imperial options. The wrong shins and missing hip plates, but I like this reference much more than my original first draft.

Got the base colors of the chest down. Next is chipped weathering and airbrush



UPDATE:

Finished up the chest plate tonight!

First a pass of chipping weathering done with a paintbrush.



Then airbrush to tie it all together!



Definitely pleased with how it's all coming together so far  :D

Been a hot second since I last updated!

I've been primarily helping friends get their kits off the ground but I finally found some time to get some of my own work done  :D

First off, I tweaked my design. I wanted some more contrast so I decided to make my gauntlets yellow to contrast the base colors of the kit, and match the kill stripe accent color! Plus I couldn't resist putting just a bit of bright color back in.

I'll likely continue to add it as an accent as I go through more pieces.



Got my gauntlets printed, smoothed, and the majority of the base paint done. Still needs some more detail painting and weathering!









I also printing out the base of one shin. It BARELY fits around my huge calves but I think it will work  :P
