Title: VOTC Jango Fett (Update 10/28/06 Removable Helmet, Custom Card)
Post by: Maxxsium on July 12, 2006, 04:09 PM
After seeing aeseven7's awesome Jango custom, I realized how much work mine needed; so I went back and redid the shin armour (with styrene strips this time) and repainted the entire figure to make it more accurate. I think the figure looks a lot better now and I prob won't be making anymore modifications. LMK what you guys think.


10/28/06 UPDATE

Ok, so I said I was done with this figure, but thanks to Glassman, I was able to give him a removable helmet (not pictured), and a head to go under it. I also retouched the paint and put him on a card while I was at it. I bought the front of the card off ebay a while back (yes, the glare is actually on the card) and Glassman did the back for me (I'll post pics of that soon)

Thanks for all of the compliments. The helmet is not removable but that may change once I find a decent head to use.

The holsters were cut from a Jango and the straps were sculpted on using epoxy putty.

the styrene strips on the shin armor make a big difference, really takes the figure to a more accurate level. nice improvement on the paint too. very top notch work here, congrats.
