This is the
AMT 1/6 scale vinyl kit of Darth Vader. I didn't just want to build a
Darth Vader kit, so I did the man behind the mask. The face behind the
Vader mask is half of Luke Skywalker's face from another AMT
vinyl model kit.
I got a few
of these kits cheap. Once I cut out the hole in the Vader mask and placed
Luke's behind it, that only left painting. Painting was pretty basic. I
used different Tamiya finishes and colors as needed. I took it to
one model show so far and it won second place...and that was only because my
Rancor
kit took first...
