Hi All Working on a 18" Prototype Boba Fett.
So begins my build thread~
First Step is to take Fett apart, the helmet was difficult, I snapped the neck.
It is now having a Epoxy treatment while I work on the rest of the kit.
A soak in Sugar soap to remove the chemical residues from the factory.
Then a white primer to coat the pieces.

Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.

Paints that I used:
1. Army Spray Painter Matt White for the Primer.
2. Tamiya Pure White Spray for the Armour
3. Tamiya Pearl White Spary for the Body
4. Tamiya Semi Gloss Spray to seal the paint.
5. Army Painter Plate Mail Metal acrylic paint for the silver bits
Painting is done, that's it for the evening.
I will need to make a cloak and then I can assemble tomorrow.

Made a custom cloak for Fett, The one in green is the one from factory.
The material I just is a off cuts from a curtain cloth.
It is white and tan side, it is quite thick and is perfect for a cloak.
