Nice job !!!

Wich green did you use for boba as a basecoat?

 

Thanks.

 

Base coat was Citadel Caliban Green with a very little Temple guard blue mixed in.

 

Can probably be just fine with just the green tho and highlight a bit.

Nice job as always. 

I am going to have to break down and purchase a second Boba Fett. I don't really like buying multiple "named" characters as there was only one of them in the movie or books. The reason being that one will get the RotJ paint scheme and one will get the ESB paint scheme. (Slight variations to outfit mostly it was the different jetpacks) Same as I did for Imperial Assault.

I think the gauntlet thingies are different too?

I'm tempted just to paint up one as Jodo Kast.

and the cape/cloak.

Yes there are subtle differences in Boba Fetts outfit as pieces of armor and colors changed from ESB to RotJ. The original canon for Boba Fett was that he would actually upgrade his armor by taking pieces from a rogue Mandalorian or bounty and he had originally put together his entire outfit in this manner. It was an evolving personal arsenal. The story of the Mandalorians and Boba Fett evolved quite a bit throughout Star Wars canon. The last being the Prequel Trilogy and Clone Wars Series canon. 

Disney Lucasfilm has made everything else "Legends".

I had done that with my WEG miniatures. Based on the Kenner/Hasbro figure released way back when. There was also a  boxed set of figures released during the Prequel Trilogy Era of additional named Mandalorians, each with their own back story and unique set of skills, that were supposed to be loyal to Jango Fett and helped train the Clone Army of the Republic. If I get creative enough I might just pick up enough to make an entire squad and customize them based on those characters. Although a couple of them were female, I could maybe see if I could get Mel Miniatures to sell just a couple Sabine miniatures since his have the helmet on as opposed to the IA helmetless miniatures.

Yeah, they had to change Boba fett in Jedi to make him more colorful to match the toys. Luckily they didn't make one of the gantlets yellow but they sure did mess up the jump pack.

I'd be on board for a single Sabine myself.  I really want her for a Strike Team Saboteur proxy.

Wow that looks awesome!

10/10 on the battle damage and color match

Only thing I would consider changing would be a tiny bit bright yellow/orange on the flames (see section 4)

Yeah if you look over sorastro's youtube channel in the descent videos there is an elemental that teaches good flames. In the pic the flames look green on this model but that may be a digital artifact.
