I also ordered an autographed print from Mr Bulloch a couple of weeks ago that arrived yesterday. I wasted no time in matting and framing it myself and putting it up in my room!
Part of the fun of being a professional photographer and graphic designer is being able to do the framing.
My only complaint with the print is that there is a small dent in it, probably from something being on it in the mail system. The casual observer won't see it though, thankfully. And only took 10 days from order to delivery. 20 GBP included worldwide shipping too. Totally worth the order!
Quality is great. Color is great too. I will just need to weather it darker from the looks of reference images. I'll get my girlfriend to sew the straps on at some point after I have armor so I can accurately measure out the 6 or so inch gap at the back.
I'm curious, as I really don't know much of anything about painting, if I need a thinner if I want to mix acrylic paint with water in a spray bottle to weather with?

I feel like a kid at Christmas every time I go to the Post Office and find something waiting for me!
My first order from Machinecraft Replicas and a US Divers Buckle replica from FMF. Fantastic parts!
I also received the Batninja neck seal. It fits perfectly and I love it.
I think I am at the point now that every builder gets sooner or later where the feeling that it's really happening and coming together hits you. I'm even more excited about putting this costume together now than I was when I started!
It's been over two months since I have updated my thread. I basically got busy with life and into a rut since I was and still am playing the waiting game on some parts.
After ordering my MoW boots back in October, and having my order get missed and having to wait on another production wave, they finally arrived this week.
I've been having a go at painting them today, following Spideyfett's tutorial. I should have waited until the end to paint the black stripe, but I am a tactile learner.
I've finished with the initial gray wash. Hopefully I will be done these today.
The other good news is that my EE-3 sling, holster and pulce 40 shipped from Stormrider yesterday. I'm looking forward to painting that up.
