Been doing a lot of work on my ROTJ SE Fett since I last posted.
So far I have completed:
Weathered the rifle
Weathered flight suit with powdered pastels
Weather gloved hands with a wash to bring out detail
Made glove “cuffs” to help hide black wrist pegs
Tightened the outer sleeves on the flight suit for tighter fit around biceps
Painted “metal” parts (knee darts,toe spikes,etc)with Molotow chrome paint
Dyed medium brown braid to dark brown
Trimmed about 1/8” of plastic, from circumference of the right gauntlet to make it fit tight around the arm
Added larger steel tube barrels to left gauntlet
Repainted weathering on both gauntlets to match screen used armor better
Repainted gauntlet tubes, now figure has one tube on each gauntlet
Tightened cod piece armor by adding an extra hole on each side so it fits snug on waist.
Trimmed “fat suit” so it is only around the torso.

Not shown in these pics but I’ve also completed:
Leather girth belt straps
Brass buckles on girth belt
Metal jet pack loops
Added lower metal loop to jet pack, with Velcro belt under the armor vest, so jet pack now hangs in the correct position. (Removed magnetic mount from jet pack)
Painted jet pack straps gray
Painted knee armor straps gray

Still left to do:
Painted added weathering details to helmet
Add extra ammo pouches to belt
Weather ammo pouches and belt

Finished up the rest of the mods to my Fett. Here are a few before and after comparisons and an album with more pics.

wow! what a huge difference all that work has made. Your Fett looks amazing!

Thanks, it was a lot of work but I’m very happy with the results.

Nice work Deano--that first comparison picture on the right--it could pass as Bulloch in his movie suit!

Dude in a suit, right there... Great Job

That is my favorite picture of the bunch.

Thanks! That's the best complement for a 1/6 figure.

Here's the full resolution. I do feel like it could use a dull coat on the gloves. They are definitely too shiny.

Awesome mods here. I’ve been out of the sixrh scale game for a long time. A store is selling an ESB Boba Fett from Sideshow this is the 2nd release of this Fett from SS. Is it any good and what are the differences between the first release? Been looking at the topics and sorry if I have to ask this on this thread. Thanks.

Does anyone have a spare set of ROTJ Fett gauntlets for sale? I need to replace a pair that are damaged.

Did 3 coats on my Empire version gloves. Looks much better. HT Fett gloves are way too shiny.

I haven’t checked in a long time but TA might have some.

Did the little switch on the left gauntlet break of off yours? I noticed it was missing off of Mr. Evil Cheese's review..then noticed mine was hanging on by a thread. I didn't realize that you tend to put your finger right there when positioning the arm.

Deano, that modded ROTJ SE Fett looks incredible. Would you talk to us about any helmet modifications, if any? It looks like a better proportioned Hot Toys ESB bucket, but without the horrible profile, but I don't know you could have solved that. Please share.

Decided to finally remove the “fat suit”. Not a huge difference, but it is noticeable:

Great pose in those last shots.

Excellent pics and poses here! Had to track this thread down so I could post a new one too:

Does anyone have a spare set of HT ROTJ Fett gauntlets for sale that aren't at eBay prices? Used is fine as long as they aren't damaged (specifically the silver toggle switches). I'm also looking for an empty art box for the Deluxe version if anyone has it available. I don't even need the plastic or cardboard inserts, just the art box as long as there is no damage.

I've finally got mine. Such an incredible figure!
