How much more work needs to be done? I have some time tomorrow on Sunday if you want to drop it off at my place or I can come buy after Church service. I know that you are working hard to get some other stuff done. So I can give you a hand if you need it.
I may start on my conversion as well? So I could use it as ref. material.

Thanks

sure, ill swing by your place. as long as kathy doesnt mind the smell of bondo. altough the weather should be nice, we can work outside

I might try and swing by too, since some "ahem" unknown trooper was wanting this, and he might try and help or at least get in the way

Church first, then I can play! Sorry I just can't seem to get this ring off, COME ON!!!! my finger. Just kidding she's not that bad. I am building a clone and she hasn't kicked me to the couch just yet!

lol. more has been done! primer is drying as we speek. im looking to deliver it at the walk night. totaly floor C and will give the paint enough time to flash off before he plays with it there. if that is ok let me know. i think the suprise will be even higher then.

Sounds great Thats what Kim was saying last night, I cant wait.

Hey you have got to take a few pics of him getting his bucket. I am going to be going crazy for the Sat. Movie night at the fire house. Wish I could be there for the reveal.

We will, thanks again for the help. Have fun Sat... sorry I had to cancel out.

we know you are andy. all is good.

MORE NEWS!!!! the helmet is now white and orange. soon i will do the detail work. teeth, brow, brow indent and weather it up. i had a few spots in the back where it orange peeled in the indents in the sides back there. im a little pissed about that. not sure why, preped it like i always do. i can hide it with some airbrush weathering.

Wow it is looking sweet

Wow, looking good!

That is looking fantastic. You've really made those seams dissapear.

I hope you'll forgive me for pointing this out. The only nit-picky deatail I've spotted is that you only have 5 vents on the sides, not the CRL required 6. I know cutting the 6th detail is a little tricky because of the way the helmet goes together.

its for a six year old, and im in a hurry. i will do that at some point down the road. dalls help out alot, most of the face re-work was him.

This thing turned out nice. It may not be 501st approvable but it was for a fellow members son like Jon said. Jon did a great job on the paint and if I were a kid I would never put this thing down. Heck I'm not and I would love to have this thing myself.





Sorry Jon I had to post it you did a great job in such a short amount of time.

From a Hasbro to this, NICE!

Man that looks snazzy! Turned out great!
