Thats what I figured Ron.  ahh well. I guess when I get to working on mine it'll just have to be the tie jumpsuit painted grey.

I look forward to seeing how yours turns out.

That is looking spot on to me, great work.

Cheers mate.

That tissue technique is an old model builders trick used to emulate cloth or canvas. You can work folds, wrinkles, and seams into it when it's wet. Very effective and convincing when dry, especially after painting, just not flexible after the watered down glue drys.
I suppose you could skip its coverage at the joints to try to get the best of both worlds

For Rons style of fixed pose custom figures, this is perfect for covering those unsightly joint seams.
Getting anxious to see more

I have more pics up tonight mate and I use to do military models and the same thing for tarps, roll etc and as you said it looks great.

Hi All,

I have started painting him, I mixed flat white and black to get the grey tone for the jumpsuit and as you can see and as Clonehead mentioned the wet tissue will sit perfectly over the already sculpted creases.

I have also started weathering the white areas by dry brushing the flat white and then adding a very soft black wash to the white areas.

I am trying to remain low key about this one Ron, but you are really exceeding my every expectation with this. I just hope you don't get inundated with AT-AT Driver Requests after this. I know even if Hasbro makes one it will pale in comparison to this one.

LOL I already have mate but I won't be doing any after yours as I have a few projects I would like to do for myself and I sent you a PM regarding the insignia as well and I'm glad you are liking it so far.

Hi All,

The AT-AT driver is now 85% complete I have a few touch ups to do and the insignia and then weathering. For the helmet I added small parts that are at the front of the helmet above the eyes and at the back above the black square and these were done by cutting small pieces from plasti card.

I also added the gun belt and added an extra pouch to the belt which is from an old Bullseye Marvel figure. The thing in the back ground is going to be a small comms relay and has been built so far from a 1/1000 scale Enterprise Nacelle a old texta lid and I projectile from a GI Joe figure.

superb work as always. 

I got my spare tie pilot out and set him on my desk... set down to work on him and just couldn't get motivated.  That and all my paints are dried up...  :( 

Maybe next weekend.

The AT-AT driver is magnificent. Thanks for sharing the process as well, it's really helpful for a less accomplished customizer like myself.
