para_fett[501st] Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 SInce my WIp was on our old boards I thought I post it back up. It all started with a white FX kit that was trasnformed by 6 cans of Krylon gloss black My first Nova was originally the RPG version which is currently not accepted by the 501st Back pack before painting End result of the RPG version Link to comment

Orsan[501st] Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Sweet! Can you tell me the paint you used for the gold? I would like to make a Nova too. Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Awesome job Para. I was wondering what happened with this. I actually stumbled on this in a google search in the zeta boards at work. I'm glad to see the near completion. So have you been approved yet. The suit looks great! Link to comment
para_fett[501st] Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 Orsan: I just used a Krylon metallic gold (in the pic below), try and use the same brand of paint, even the primer AcJay: I haven't been approved yet, I still need to make the adjustments Link to comment
