Hey, did anyone notice this?

[Darth Hilarious]

Having a good look on swhelms while preparing to paint my lid, and noticed the rank stripes aren't on the ear bumps themselves, but in the dips in between them.

 

 

Harder to tell in this second pic:

Yes, it looks like the ESB helmets were done this way.

It looks from the second pic like one is up and one is down... Well spotted!

That's actually how I did the ones on my bucket. If you look at the placement of them, there's no way they can be on top of the bumps.

I never noticed that before... but I've always been more of an ANH lid man myself. Good to know though!

I imagine as more people start to view the BluRay release, we'll get more small details coming out. Always more to learn, there is.

great detail!

 

makes me want to start over on my ESB lid!

[Daetrin[Admin]]

Learn something new every day. Man, I love FISD

All I want to know is where is the ANH Hero in ESB. I know it is in there, just dont know the scene.

 

This is how mine are painted too, go ESB!

Interesting! Never noticed that! Great find!

Gonna be repainting my lid as ESB tonight, so I'll make sure the stripes are in the dips.

speaking of the blue ray release,have you noticed that in the moss eisley cantina scenes that the drinks dispenseres behind the bar are actually the heads of several ig [88] assain droid units

[AJCG]

I add that detailed a while back ago on my old CAP ESB; -----------

 

Cheers
