Well the cod piece is going in rubber tonight. I was honestly surprised with how well this cleaned up. It's not perfect, but I feel it looks pretty good. I may go back and make another one in the future but this will work



Should have the cast done and ready by Saturday afternoon, to which we'll throw it onto the rest of the suit

Thanks guys! I appreciate the compliments! Hope people like it after it's all said and done

 I had to go and assist a friend who was doing some sewing work for the jango flightsuit, but my buddy was kind enough to take on molding the cod piece, which means we'll be able to pull a cast and have it ready by saturday afternoon.



Lastly, was able to throw the last of the primary paint for the shoulder bells. Just needs the leather straps, weathering and mounting



So tonight will be a good push for us. If all goes well enough, we should be done with this by saturday afternoon, hopefully I'll be able to take pics with everything on.

Hopefully

Thanks! There's not really any solid reference in the comic for them, especially since he's only got them in a few frames before losing them in an explosion. I partially relied on the action figure for overall placement/size. The notches were a combination of the few ref shots..but can't be perfect

So cool man. So freaking cool.   8)  8)  8)  A great kit for sure right here, and the first complete Montross I've every seen. Have fun at celebration, I look forward to seeing whatever changes you make later.

Thanks guys!

I'm actually not the first, my buddy Lee in the UK completed his a few years back. He's got a phenomenal Montross and he's also got the muscle for it! He was 501st approved back then too

Reviving this thread to show off what is coming soon!

This is one of the props I've been wanting to do when starting this project, based off the concept art for Star Wars Bounty Hunter. While the in-game pistols are largely the same overall design, they added a lot more detail to that final game version. However, for the Open Seasons action figure, they gave him these pistols, which largely don't seem different from the concept art. Currently having the model printed by a friend. This was modeled by Indigenous Effects
