Smitty Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 That's one dirty son of a %@*! I think its going to look very menacing in full attire. Please tell me youre gonna get a ANH helmet and dirty it up too. An FX bucket would really detract from the work you've done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An FX bucket would really detract from the work you've done. yep got an RT on the way......i thought about going with less weathering after i figured out how to do the baster marks but by that time it was already painted,,this is my first rodeo,,haha,and who really wants to take it all off before showing it off a little,,,i think i will take it down a notch ,,the way i was getting the real nice grays and blaster marks was with crushed up high quality charcoal pencils ....maybe try that again after remove some of the paint......over..
