Working on the inital stages of Rich's Wedge helmet on the RPB stand at the last NSC Star Wars event, Ian Liston the actor (who was doing signing near us) came over. I thought he wanted an autograph ;) Alas he wanted me to paint him up an X-Wing helmet, same as the one he wore in The Empire Strikes Back as Wes Janson. This was for his prostrate cancer charity, since then I have managed to get SDS to donate a X-Wing lid as they made the originals helmets, this arrived yesterday.

So this could be good publicity for the RPB, hoping for the press to get on this one. Will post up work in progress photos, just need to get the paints and work what the shade of cream is next to the red on the top.

Two helmets both to be painted as Wes Janson's one for Ian Liston, other for Rich Bown. After this i'm taking a break from painting as it's very time cosuming, hope to do some sculpting and also do upgrades to my Fett.
