Boba Fett Prototype
This is a version of Boba Fett as seen in early Empire Strikes
Back production paintings by Ralph McQuarrie. I've been calling
him "Proto
Fett." I
used the Boba Fett from the 1996 Shadows of the Empire two-pack.
Most of it is painted white with the armor on the chest and arms
grey.
The
poncho
is
made from a handkerchief dipped in white glue. I placed it on
the figure and molded it to the right shape, then let it dry. Then
I coated it with liquid latex rubber and painted it. Now it has
a plastic feel but still shows the fabric weave of the cloth.
He
still needs a new rocket pack and a helmet sensor/antenna.
