  1. Thanks a lot guys! She'll be happy to hear that I already give it first pass before i go to bed this morning 3rd pass Comparison with my older boots,the front had not much different from this angle,but from front look,my older boots is much 'pointy-er' I used a spraypaint from Aerox(acrylic spray paint) surprisingly it holds on the leather Now the problem is,i cant find a white dye anywhere near me for the elastic! and got to prep this for tomorrow...think..think:6: wait........i'll spray the elastic to **** :glare:
  2. just received my made to order boots today,after almost a year( )this is the 'final' result It got some off here and there,but the most unfortunate thing is,her craftsman cut the sides(for the elastics) too deep and too wide also makes the openings too big. The leather is quite soft,maybe it'll get better after i spray painted it or maybe not cuz the originals on the screencaps also looks 'soft'(??) Special thanks to Paul for answering my questions and his photos of the original boots he had,thanks a lot sir So what do you guys think? sell it....or paint it sorry for the pics,its 3 am here but cant wait to show you guys,if its a go i'm gonna paint it tomorrow
  3. Testors also had similar colors and a very good alternative. I remember we had a sticky for the color chart
  4. Awesome!!! More sleepy eye! Uhhh I want another bucket!
  5. Don't forget for split rivets,better than pop rivets imo and more forgiving for the armor
  6. Yes,it's the same company like the one me and Treg posted(extremeracing's undies for stormtroopers),but this one had a logo on it or the regular model

  9. I just enjoying what TM had found,and provide us with pictures and descriptions,it is far much much better than all the screen caps i got(or almost all what we had before). I go to my boot maker without any guesses now,and just saying,"MAKE EXACTLY LIKE THIS" :lol:
