Weathering?

[Torment[TK]]

Ok crazy thought here.  How many TFA people are looking at weathering their armor?  I like the all white suit, but I also kinda dig the weathered version.  It puts the costume more in line with all of the other suits.  Clones were filthy, the TK were always a mess and falling apart.  So the shot that we see of dirty TFA is something I am interested in.  Just curious what others thoughts are on the idea.

Weathering will always have my preference. It adds grit and character to everything. I'm not interested in TFA armor but if i did, i'd weather the heck out of it.

The best type of weathering happens with actual use. I plan on being shiny and parade ready for the December premiere, but after that I'm just going to let it happen naturally.

 

I took the same approach with my ESB TK - I was all spit-and-polish when I debuted it at C5 in 2010, and haven't done any cleanup to it (other than wiping sweat out of the interior) since. Five years later, I have a suit that looks every bit as beat up as we know the screen-used ESB kits were.

I will decide after I see the movie, since I will not have my set until after the movie. But I really want to see what is more common in the movie. If there seems to be more clean ones, I will weather mine, and vice verse.

I'm curious to see if the infamous bloody hand print makes its way on to a set of armor!

My armor is already weathering naturally from just trooping. Next month, after moving madness, I plan to clean it up and work on some repainting to shiny things back up for the premiere.
