Fettered
Hunter
One of the things that I have seen written on these boards and happen to agree with is that one of the key things that can make or break a Fett costume is getting the scale of all the pieces and parts right. 1:1 parts would look just as silly on someone 6'7" as they would someone 5' tall. Both of those instances require armor that is far outside of the range in which 1:1 replica armor will look good.
Now, I have seen some pretty fantastic hand-made armor on here, so I'm not discounting that in any way. However, people like FettPride, Redkraytdragon, and BobaMaker (not trying to slight any other armorers, they just come to mind first) have put a good deal of time and effort into making some of the most accurate armor that we have ever seen. But in that pursuit of accuracy it is, by necessity, 1:1 armor.
I have read many various and sometimes conflicting "facts" and theories about the height of Boba Fett, the height of Jeremy Bulloch, how much he may have shrunk since Empire was shot and so on and so forth. For Mr. Bulloch I think I've seen everything from 5'9" to 6'1"
With that in mind, I am wondering what people think about the height range wherein purchased 1:1 armor will look good. If you can provide full photos in said armor with heights/weights would be awesome, too.
