Custom Pilot
PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVE!
I got that Microfighter Resistance Fighter set, and immediately fell in love with the figure.
I didn't really get any of The Force Awakens sets when they came out, so it was my first time getting the new pilot suit and helmet.
The figure was practically perfect already, but I wanted to add a little more.
Rebel Pilot:
I immediately changed the head, cause I love how these new heads look. The main figure details were all kept with same with the exception of a few. The white print seemed to be washed out, so I painted over it with a firmer shade of white. I added some black boots, just for a little contrast, and changed the color of the gray tubing on his thighs. The gap between the torso and legs was filled in. The whole figure was then washed in dark brown for a better look. I added simp pockets on the sides of his arms and legs and wrapped his hands in Etape. The helmet has battle damage of various browns, black, and even white for paint scratches.
For his accessory I made an SE-14C. The base was a brickarms gun, with the back chopped off and sights/piping glued on. The whole thing was painted in a matte black. I think I got the likeness pretty well, but I'm missing a side barrel.
I think that's it!
Overall I'm super pleased with how this turned out, as it is one of the first Star Wars figs I've done in a while.
Thanks if you comment and read!
