ROTJ:SE Bucket by Fettfromhell

[Rogue Fett]

I recently bought a raw cast Minutefett bucket and I commissioned a friend (@fettfromhell on IG) to paint it up as an SE lid. We’ve been experimenting with the light green color and we think we got a good tone. Laid it down tonight and I think it looks fantastic.



While we used Archive X for the green, we will be using Floquil for the kill stripes. We tested to make sure we liked the back kill stripe color over the green we mixed. Here’s a sample:



I can’t wait to see the final product. It’s going to be amazing. Dean does some great work!

Made a lot of progress today

Kill stripe time! Dean did something pretty cool. Using the MF raw cast, he utilized the impressions in the mold to show him where to mask instead of using stencils.

Cat scratch time!

It’s been a while, but progress has resumed on the SE bucket. The dark gray is going on now, starting with the cat scratch!

Some more progress on the SE helmet. Dean used a process he learned from @Ord Mantell on sculpting the visor, originally posted on BFB by @thespanishfett




He used this clay mold to get the proper curve and ensure a tight fit



Look at that arch!



Compared to the original



Beautifully done!
