602nd Legion Jet Trooper

Well I finally managed to find all the water slide decal equipment to do this, I think it came out nicely . This is my legions jet trooper, I think I made a nice unique design for once. I also got some awsome photos! . Anyways this was my first water slide decal trooper, and I'm proud of it!

I hope you like it!

C&C welcome

Wow, that is great especially for a first try! I know mine didn't look like that, anyways great job!

Wow, that's brilliant for a first try. I hope when I do mine it'll turn out this great.

I noticed a few black dots around the foot area; maybe you should use some methylated spirits to remove them?

Yay! Another use of my decals!

I'm so proud. *Sniff*

I think it would look a lot better if you'd applied it to a blank torso instead of over an already printed one. You can remove printing with Brasso - it works very well.

Umm...how do I remove the print, I tried brasso but it didn't work...

Well, that's..unusual...

Try this tutorial if you're using liquid Brasso - it should help you somewhat.

Wow.

Man, that's is freaking epic for a first try.

I REALLY need to post some of my new minifigs.

If you mod figures, this is why decals the best unless you're really skilled like Kam or Jasbrick.

I think that post summed up my thoughts about this figure, but if you really can't see my point...

I tried that CG but it just made it shiny!

Yes, it does that, but then you have to keep going and it will rub off. I, personally, use Brasso Wadding. It's easier to rub, as it's a cloth-type material soaked in brasso, in a way. Much better, so if you're having trouble try and get some of that.

Oh ok thanks, I will try do do that in the future.

I thought my brasso wasn't working at first either. I later found that you just have to scrub really hard and persistently with a Q-tip.

I find that scrubbing quickly and gently will work faster than hard and slowly. I think it may be that the friction may speed up the process.
