Lately there are a few ppl done their suits....

Now that I've finished my ESB Fett., I find myself bored:facepalm.
Anyone else (done your suit) feel the same? I notice the trend of guys done suits... leave and or say hi once in a while but barely log on anymore. I really like this forum but I do see more new names than before. does that make me part of the old school??:confused


Technically, I'm about 90% due to FP's situation.:(
But, all in all my suit is done.. I do have to finish up a few small details....:p

I was thinking I may snag a few Sgt Fangs and make a ROTJ, Holiday Special, Pre-pro w/eyes.

I may tackle a Pre-pro 3 suit.

Time to save up some $$:D
 
Heh...don't ever say you're finished. I "finished" my suit in July, but have been doing some upgrades and tweaking ever since.

Some aluminum shoulder/cod studs here, new gloves there...and a revamped jet pack harness somewhere along the way.

You may have gone top shelf from the beginning, and I did for most things, but I'm still finding stuff that I'd like to improve...most often times after seeing some of the excellent work done on there by some of the boys and girls.

I think you're definitely old school. I remember reading some of your stuff when I started a year ago. That is a good thing...you can pass your wisdom on to some of the new guys.

Good work!! Someday I may do an ESB suit... but next up is a Galactic Marine.

Time to save up some $$:D
 
Yeah I finished my Stormtrooper :D...got bored :facepalm....bought a Republic commando (y).

Finished my Republic Commando :D...got bored :facepalm... sold it and bought my Biker Scout and TIE (y)(y).

Finished my Biker Scout :D...got bored :facepalm...bought a Boba Fett (y).....

Had to Sell my TIE :(....But now as I finish my Boba I am already looking for the next project :rolleyes...

I promised my daughter I would do a Jawa for her (and display), but I am torn between my next project....

Darth Vader or Commander Gree :confused..... what do ya think?
 
Well I dont have a suit(of any kind) and I am bored....:cry

I have to ask how can you be bored when you can be a lifesize action figure.....:) The way the "cards of life" are being dealt to me I dont think I will ever know.....:(
 
I felt the same way so I started on pre pro #3 and Master chief and Commander Bacara......... and Commander Bly............ aw man no I feel like I have a problem.........? oh well
 
done? what is this "done" you speak of?

4 years in, and i'm still getting new parts and tweaking things regularly! :)

plus i've got my tusken, clone, x wing, rebel fleet trooper, jason vorhees, jack harkness, bsg grunt, etc... to keep me busy!
 
Thx all:cheers

I do know that I'll ALWAYS be tweeking my suit... but due to all the new found info and contributions from members like Art, Alex, Rogue Studios...etc so much "accurate" info this year has popped up that it makes it so easy to have a A+ replica.

10 yrs ago, most.. only dreamed of having a decent representation of a movies suit.

now you can just buy a kit and paint away...:D

Next on my list, other than fett helmets... is a Trooper suit ( I use to have a FX) then a Sgt Fang Vader.

sithchick, the han sounds interesting...(y)
 
hmm wait you mean my working on improving my Boba, completing my EP3 clone, improving my custom mando, working on my jedi AND sith isn't a sign of my boredom? I thought it was odd that my wife keeps threatening divorce and death upon me if I keep buying more armor and SW stuff, god I'm gonna miss her. (J/k my marriage is in great shape and it's just a funny joke)
 
I hear you bro...when I got done with my ROTJ, I got lost too...sure we will still upgrade with the new parts coming in but it is limbo for now.

I'm waiting to start on my new project...gotta do with the Flood and Grunts and the big guy that fights em. ;)

In the meantime, I'm gonna keep sculpting and casting to make some extra cash and fine-tune my work.

Stay safe,

Tim.
 
It all sounds like a good problem to have...:cheers

I've sold off my biker and my sandtrooper to do this...All I have is my officer and snow trooper. I can't wait to finish and troop in my Fett. I'd love to do a Bacara! I'd also love to do a ton of other stuff. It's a crazy hobbie!
 
Haha, boredom doesn't exist for me. It seems every time I start on a costume, about halfway through I go "Hey, maybe I should do that costume too!" Then I start a 2nd while doing the first, and a 3rd somehow sneaks in. We are all sick in the head, but it's too much fun.
 
I just have an awesome FX kit for now, I'll be purchasing AP soon. The Canadian Dollar keep on dropping, so I keep getting a better discount :) I'm just waiting to strike...
 
You're not done my friend ... you will have an FPH on the way very soon ;)

I'll be making a post about it in the next day or so.

FP
