Daetrin Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 It's hard to say in that light. Also, is this for display only, or trooping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIVE Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 It is hard to see in that light... like if it's the light that's making it look like "that" or not. But, I like it! Take some "normal" pictures of it. In sunlight preferably. And not at any "fancy" angles... just all angles. Yes, though, it's looking good!

Rolf Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Pretty god job Jesse. Maybe a bit too "thick" layer vs. a too "clean" area side by side. I like when its more dusty, and some of the areas, like on yours too, a bit more dirt, but still fade/smooth out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenthork Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Opinions guys? Wondering if it needs another pass? It doesn't look "oily" I know, but... I like the general appearance, but I think there are places where straights are not natural, may be reworking these small areas and it will be perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordonator Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Looks good. A little touch up with lighter tones will make it even better I'm sure. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK4702 Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 Looks good. A little touch up with lighter tones will make it even better I'm sure. =) Was thinking the same. Thanks! Just ordered my pouches from Zaddok (2 straights), and just dyed my shoulder pouch black. Still looking for a leather one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK4702 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 looks great man....nice job Thanks! Pretty god job Jesse. Maybe a bit too "thick" layer vs. a too "clean" area side by side. I like when its more dusty, and some of the areas, like on yours too, a bit more dirt, but still fade/smooth out... Yeah, I think you were right. I like it a lot better now. I like the general appearance, but I think there are places where straights are not natural, may be reworking these small areas and it will be perfect Thanks for your input, much appreciated! I like it. What type of paint did you us on it? Cheers, Smally. Well, I started with Rustoleum Plastic Primer, then Rustoleum Gloss White. Then I did a series of washes using Tube Acrylic Paints, with black, brown and tan. Then I scrubbed some of it off, and sprayed parts with Rustoleum Camo Khaki (flat), and immediately blotted that stuff with some paint thinner on a microfiber cloth. If you push the rag across the surface of the paint, you get these real interesting shapes that look quite natural. Anywhere that I wiped to much off I would just blot it again with the paint on the cloth. Looks good. A little touch up with lighter tones will make it even better I'm sure. =) Good advice thank you! Great job man!!! Thank you Trooper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iron ram Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 These are the only other photos I have available (at the moment), I will find or take some more. Who makes the helmet on the far left or the first one working from left to right It looks wider than the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthChridan Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Who makes the helmet on the far left or the first one working from left to right It looks wider than the restIt comes from the photographing with the camera objective. It may be, as in this case, the two outer objects out into the wide...it may be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK4702 Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 Who makes the helmet on the far left or the first one working from left to right It looks wider than the restmy wide angle lens is distorting the image. But to answer your question ... one on the left is an ATA, the one on the right is a TE2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
