    My first boba fett build Pic Intensive 90% done!

    Hi there,

    New to forums and wanted to say hello, Kerth age is 32 i do pro gaming (www.proskills.us) I am a boba fett since I can remember and after doing some google searching i found this place, a little bit of heaven on earth. I have message a few members to start buying and create my fett suit. I got the electronic retail helment but after seen some of the helms in here i decided to create my own. Feel free to message me about any unwanted boba fett stuff that you may have wasting space in your room or any stuff that you can craft . I can do paypal or trade gaming stuff (xbox 360, ps3, games etc)

    Hope to be involve in this site a lot! and hopefully post my final suit in a few months or years.

    update 7-13-12

    HI Kcr,

    I am working on my first Boba Fett (ROTJ). The TDH is a great place start...I also found TK409's site, great site. I'm researching armor now, and I am glad to have this site and community for research.

    Re: My first boba suit

    thank rafa, and i agree 100% with you rich, this forums have been my passion for the past months..the community have been great so far I dont want to go into how much i have spent in the past 3 days cause my wife could read and fill for a divorce but... most parts are on their way. I am only missing the Jet Pack, ee3 riffle, boots and fettronics chest ligths. Ordered 1 dp helm for me to paint and 1 custom helm already painted. Special thanks to ghostrider who have been a great seller for most soft parts

    Cant wait to post updated pics of the incoming gear !

    Kcr,

    I am looking for armor, i don't have a workshop to make armor. I met a gentleman that bought his armor from RKD. It looked great and good quality. Who did you use, OR does anyone know how I can get in touch with RKD armor?
    I am going to order my fettronics from tk409.

    You are doing a good job though.
    keep it up.
    You'll get better with practice.

    The paint job is not bad at all, except the knee base color should be like the right shoulder bell and not the left one.

    Re: My first boba suit Pic Intensive

    It can be fixed, almost anything can be fixed, it all depends on your technique, some super strength glue and some bondo should do the trick, then maybe some fiberglass reinforcement on the inside to strengthen it some more.

    I agree it can be fixed, it wont be super easy to do but. I havent fixed worse but similar. I reccomend Fiberglass for the inside of the helmet and some CA glue as crazy as it sounds. It will melt it back together really, the FG will reinforce the area for sure.

    The suit looks killer! It's so sad that you have to sell it, but the decision is yours and maybe it will go to a good home.
