Like a squirel gathering food for winter, I too am preparing myself! :)

I have been gathering parts getting ready for my next project..a shiney Vader!



I have most of the hard parts...belt boxes are on the way...I have to re-make some of the chest box pieces, build a saber ,get the proper mesh for the helmet , machine some tuscs...blah, blah, blah :) ..the air through that big ol chin vent is gonna be NIIIIICE!

Be prepared for all kinds of stupid ESB questions...

wish me luck! :)

Will follow this thread.

Yeah... those pieces on the box need to be realigned better, as they look very wonky. :toothy

The black and clear coat look very nice! I can see that the grey was a little too light and dull though. Hopefully you will be happy with the results when you get it back. Looking forward to seeing it. :thumbsup

Great looking helmet, I love ESB Vader. It certainly has the look to me, although I am clueless about Vader.

Don't worry Jay, your Vader will come together.
If it looks as good as your ANH, it will be one of the best :)
