This is like 12th or so Slave 1. I've been making and remaking them ever since I was 9. I also have pictures of my custom Boba Fett. The Slave 1 is not complete I still have a lot of interior work to do as well as the underside that I still have to do, among other things... Please let me know what you think of it and my custom Boba Fett so far. You can see both the Slave I and my custom Boba Fett in my Caching up with the storm series. pt 13 and 14 have Fett in it. here's the link to pt 13. http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/284765
About this creation
Here are some photos of both Boba Fett and the Slave I from my Caching up with the storm series. Both pt 13 and pt 14 are uploaded so feel free to check them out.

Caching up with the storm pt 14 Bounty
And then here's the pictures of just the ship and Boba Fett.
I bought one of those Clone Wars Mandalore sets and set out to make my own custom Boba Fett. I spray painted the first coat of silver then taped the over the parts I wanted to stay silver and painted the rest red. for the visor, snake eyes, and battle scars I used a black sharpie. The snake eyes is from a concept designed the Luca's art team came up with but was dropped for the green and red instead. So in my mind I think he did the snakes eyes on his helmet some time in between the death of Jango Fett and the Empire Strikes back. At least I think so. I do plan on adding the green though, and I'll let you know how that goes.
This is where it gets embarrassing... I only worked on it enough to finish the one side for my Catching up with the storm. I Hope to finish the other side and ad interior soon.

A Friendly update on how the build is going. I have completely scraped the swamp green side panels for something I think looks a lot better. The only color I have for it though is the normal green so I'll see how that turns out.
