TTFS: Boba Fett Helmet - Creating the Post-Sarlacc Texture
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ก.ย. 2024
- ** SPOILER ** I get halfway through this build and get fired from my job ... of yeah, also, in the beginning, I talk a little about the Book of Boba Fett ** I create the paint and texture for a post-Sarlacc Boba Fett and work a bit more on my Ghostbusters Aztec Death Whistle. This helmet was printed by the super talented people at "Clever 3D Studios" on Etsy!
This episode was written, filmed, and edited by Shawn Cash, produced by Heather Atherton and Shawn Cash.
I have had a lot of questions about what paint I used. I used all Montana Gold Black brand spray paint and here are the colors i used and where:
Bottom of cheeks and top of head - Storm
Top of cheeks - Toad
Red trim - Cardinal
Back of head - Celtic (dusted with Banknote to darken it a little)

I had no idea on the stones! Take care there friend! I hope you feel better soon.
I had a thought about the Sarlacc, if it takes a 1000 years to be digested by a Sarlacc then isn't that acid weaker than water? It takes far less time for organic matter to dissolve in water!
Thanks Odin! They are “better”! Exactly my thought on the Sarlacc … that is the worst plan by “nature” ever!
My understanding has always been that due to some rule of cruel the sarlacc activley keeps you alive and in pain troughout the ordeal, and hence why Jabba liked to throw people down in it.
@@xzantrax Well that doesn't sound fun a all!
@@trytofinishsomething Well... your name is not jabba desilijic tiure, so I sincerley hope you dont find it appealing
Great demo for beginner paint, masking, and weathering
Hopefully it helps someone achieve what they are trying to make! Thanks for watching!
Amazing work, as always! Sorry to hear about the job situation. I know it's cliche but everything WILL work out and you've got a lot of support here and in the various groups. Praying for you and the fam and looking forward to the next vid. Hope you and your family are having a great Christmas!
Thank you very much and same … well the Merry Christmas part is same to you!
Now the helmet has a story!
Thank you! You know I love my stories!!
Shawn, awesome content, as always. Love the technique and the imagination about a chapter we all are looking forward to digesting.
Sorry to hear about the stones. I don’t know you stones to get up every day to work on these projects. Most would just stay in bed and cry. Props man. I have no idea how you can get fired from your own company,…but sounds like someone was thinking the only way to be the king is to topple the king. Ma6be they should have led with respect I wish you happy holidays in spite of what’s happening and I hope good fortune comes to you in the upcoming year
I can't wait!! And thank you!
Glad your surgery went well. Sorry about the job situation. Great work on the helmet.
THANKS!!
Great work on the helmet. I am going to make a Boba Fett helmet sometime soon…still not sure which version I am going to paint…but yours definitely inspires me to lean towards the same version. Keep up the good work…you just gained a new subscriber :)
I had a hard time deciding too!
Hey Shawn.
I am usually not the kind of person to comment videos. I mostly watch and like. But hearing your story midway in your video urged me to write a couple of words to try to lift your spirit up. Hang tight my man because you never know what's coming after a storm. I wish you the best.
Thanks Eric ... means more than you know!
Amazing work!
9am here in the UK and was chuffed to see a video pop up. Mate take some rest the surgery looks like it's taken its toll. Sucks about the job but I'm sure it will all work out. Great job on that helmet aswell and a very merry Christmas to you and your family
Thanks Chris ... it will work out eventually!
So sorry about your job, Shawn. Be well, Merry Christmas and may the new year have better things in store for you and your family.
Thanks Brad!
Ahhhhh…kidney stone surgery. I had 2 massive stones (one in each kidney). I ended up having nearly a dozen surgical procedures done to destroy those asteroids. I was looking at having to lose one kidney, because it was badly damaged. All ‘better’ now. Hope you’re feeling better at this point. Sucks that you also lost your job, in such a crappy way.
I really love your skills with making plastic look like metal that’s been through the digestive tract of a giant sand slug. Gonna need to rewatch another dozen times to catch everything you do.
Thank you so much and sorry to hear about your fun with the asteroids too! If you have any questions or need anything further look me up and Facebook or email me and I would be happy to help!
I’m really sorry to hear about your current situation mate. Hope things turn around for you soon. And thank you for this content- I’m keen to give it a go my self. Sending best wishes from New Zealand
Send pictures if you do!! And thanks for the time giving it a watch!
I’m sooty about the job Shawn, but you’re so talented I’m sure you’ll work out something. I love your channel!
*sorry
@@hessweb99 Thanks Richard ... I will make something work!
Sorry to hear of all this just before Christmas, Shawn! Honestly though, if you attack life like you do your TTFS projects, you’ll make it thru just fine! Chin up, bro!!!
Appreciate that Jonathan!
Great helmet painting tutorial! sorry to hear about your kidney stones and your job situation. That's a one two punch no one wants. I like to think that when one door closes it allows others to open. Thanks for sharing and keep on keeping on!
Drink apple cider for every meal. It helps break thing down
Thanks Chris and thanks for the tip Zorro … I will give it a try!!
As a former fabric cutter (for a sports/preventative injury company, making all sorts of slings, braces and the like), you're aware you can thin liquid latex with distilled water, aren't you? We used to thin - and tint - liquid latex, using water-based acrylic pigments, depending on the customer; one for beige wrist and ankle supports, and one for white, depending on the customer, and the fabric/material we used. The ammonia given off - mixed into each drum - is only to keep the rubber in a fluid state ... otherwise you'd end up with a 20 litre sized pencil eraser in a can!
I had no idea!! Thanks for the tips!!
Awesome paint job as always Shawn.
Man, so sorry to hear about your job, boy that sucks. And yep kidney stones are a bitch to rcover from. On a silver lining, your still here doing what you love, and we love what you do. I genuinely mean that. Each week i really look forward to watching your videos.
2021 has been crazy mad for everyone, but 2022 is gonna be the year that you come back, bigger and stronger than 2021.
My best to you and Mrs Cash and your family and friends.
MTFBWY!!
I appreciate that and Thanks!
Sorry to hear about the job, that’s really shitty right before Christmas. Love the texture you did on Boba! That Bondo hardens up enough to where it’s still safe to consistently handle I’m assuming?
Yeah! On the test piece I really scratched it is with a wire brush and it’s ON THERE!!
great job!! sorry about the stones, and the firing, will pray for you. :)
Thank you very much!!
Loving your channel, just recently subscribed. Sorry to hear about the kidney stones. I can't believe you're doing the standup with stones! You're a better man than me. I've been in the hospital 4 times over a 15 year span for stones, and had both shockwave and laser procedures. Hopefully everything came out OK. See what I did there. Sorry about the job, too.
Ha! Yeah everything is coming out OK. Thanks for the subscription and hopefully I can keep you with all of the crap I plan to build and paint and make!!
@@trytofinishsomething I'm enjoying it enough to binge (2-3 at a time) at 2am, so I think I'll be watching for a while. :)
And good luck with the stones.
I did Baby Yoda frozen in carbonite for my Imperial Inquisitor cosplay last year. People get angry when they see him in that condition... LOL.
I would love to see pictures of that!
You should put list of stuff you use. So we can always come back follow along.
Great idea … I will go back in and edit the description with that!! Thanks!
I really wish you included the brand names and paint colors you used for this 😩
I did the top of the helmet and bottom of the cheeks in Montana Gold Black spray paint color-Storm, top of the cheeks (same brand) color-Toad, back (same brand) color-Celtic dusted with Banknote to darken it a bit, and last the red accents with (same Montana Gold Black spray paint) color-Cardinal
@@trytofinishsomething you’re the greatest. Incredible work
Good luck and I want to see yours when done!!
Great technique! Sad to hear what’s going on in your life right now. Best of luck
Thank you very much!!
Kidney stones...phew, that's tough. Hope all goes well. I also did that helmet for my Boba costume. Stupid me rushed it though, because I absolutely wanted to wear a full kit for an event - so I really got the cow spot pattern. Did the spots with toothpaste, but somehow they were far too evenly spred accross the dome. The grainy texture and weathering looked really good, but the official of the Mando Mercs (who I want to join) gave me that hint. So I stripped the whole thing and will redo the helmet - and take my time (next spring though, as I have no spot to do rattlecan spraypaints in our house).
Would love to see pictures and any advice!
@@trytofinishsomething I sent you some via mail. Hope you like them!
love the Ghostbusters death whistle thing.. are you going to make it workable? or just for looks?
Not sure yet ... don't know what it would take to get it to make sound!
@@trytofinishsomething hmm true almost like making a flute or something.. I'm sure there are tutorials on how to make it work or something like that.. I mean if Africans from Africa can make it and make sound come out I'm sure you could figure it out also 😁
This is my comment to appease the great algorithm
I appreciate the help with the "game"!
What was your mix ratio with the spirits I’m trying to use your effect but I’m not getting the mix quite right.
I just added until it was like a thin milkshake!
@@trytofinishsomething what spirit are you using? I’m using white spirits… it’s just not mixing with the spot putty
The texture technique is very effective. did you add another coat of black before the chrome? I like the way the death whistle is going.
Yes, I did ... just so that everything had the black base ... including the Bondo!
Ps feel better
