LENOX61 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Here are the pictures for my KST bucket. Here is the PghFett / SGB helmet in raw form straight out of the box. After trimming, sanding, cleaning up the helmet, along with some Bondo work, the helmet and visor is just about ready for primer and first base coat. Obtained several paint colors from the Kashyyyk Scout forums, then performed the camoflage paint scheme. The helmet was then green washed, banged and scratched up, and weathered to represent a trooper in the midst of battle. Visor was just recently installed, however, the decals have not been applied yet. Please excuse these photos, the pictures were taken in our workshop / garage at night. Therefore the lighting is not the best. More pictures to come once the bucket is completely finished and the armor arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LENOX61 Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 Beautiful impressive work! Thank-you Jessie. It's not quite finished, but I am hoping to have it completed by the end of this week-end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylar Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 This looks awesome. Great work on the weathering. What did you use get sand to stick to the helmet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LENOX61 Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 This looks awesome. Great work on the weathering. What did you use get sand to stick to the helmet? Thanks. I used glue which was misted onto the helmet (a little goes a long way). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonescout Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Very impressive! What did you use as a green wash? I like the weathering with the sand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LENOX61 Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 Very impressive! What did you use as a green wash? I like the weathering with the sand! Thanks Angelo. I used a medium green, acrylic paint and carefully rubbed it on. I am probably going to add some more dirt and a little more moss after I get the decals from Mr. B. (you can bearely see it coming from the bottom of the visor where it attaches to the helmet----I wanted it to look like his face went through some brush). My goal is to have the uniform appear to have been in a muddy, active, hellish fire fight (per the Wookie battle with the droids). I'm still not done.
