Re: Madighon ROTJ RG WIP
Other than the helmet that you've already noted, I'd say it looks ready to go

Re: Madighon ROTJ RG WIP
Like Stripes says all you need now is getting the helmet in the right shade of red.
Re: Madighon ROTJ RG WIP
Hello Madighon,
I don't know if you started repainting your helmet or not, but...here's a very important tip. The primer layer of paint will affect the final paint job. If you want a lighter shade, always go for the light grey primer. If you want the color darker, go for black. Apply this trick to this, and any other build you ever do and you will save yourself hours of painstaking stripping and sanding.
You are almost there brother!

Re: Madighon ROTJ RG WIP
Looks good. But i am not sure if you changed the colour of the helmet.
Looks still a littlebit darker then the outer robe to me.
Can you make some pictures in natural daylight ?

Re: Madighon ROTJ RG WIP
The gloves were custom made by a gal who owns a costume shop in town.
The helmet does still need to be repainted. I am waiting for better weather so I can take in my robes with the helmet and show them the color difference in natural light.
Thanks,
Madighon

Re: Madighon ROTJ RG WIP
Weather permitting. Also what paint are you using? There are several rustrolum shades out there. Also when you do outside photos use a neutral setting that is void of background noise.

Re: Madighon ROTJ RG WIP
I'll take it back to the paint shop where I get it done the first time. I'm pretty sure they matched the fabric swatch under bad lighting. I'll make sure they get it right the second time around.
