What a truly amazing event and evening - The JB Project

Words can not express how wonderful I still feel inside. This was a very special event for a very special person. Everyone that contributed to that suit did it for their love of JB and Star Wars.

A added bounus was being able to meet fellow TDH'ers. I will never forget you guys. It was such a pleasure to be able to finally meet and shake your hands.

Seeing JB's face and the look of everyone elses face when he came out of that room for the photoshoot was something I will hold close to my heart always.


Thank you again Alex and to your team for allowing me and Danny to be apart of this.

And thank you Jeremy Bulloch for being such a remarkable gentleman.
:cheers:cheers:cheers :love:love:love
 
Seeing JB in that suit gave me goosebumps. I found myself holding back tears. I was getting choked up. As Brak's was taking photos of JB in the suit. You could see the glow on JB's face and it reflecting off of everyone who was in that room was extraordinary. It was a event that I will NEVER forget as long as I breathe.

Thank you Alex for posthing these photos. (y)

Not long really, if you consider that the majority of the time spent was tailoring the last of the components that needed his "form" when he got there.

I'd say, from MY perspective, that if it weren't for the finishing touches, he'd been suited in a half hour at the most. But basically, each of us had a component or two that we were working on, and so it all went on in whatever order each of us finished an item. From start to finish seemed like about 1.5 - 2 hours. I could be wrong, as we were all sort of flying around like chickens with our heads cut off :lol:

Although, with Art and Kristen setting up the equipment for the shoot, and all of us running around doing our parts - we must have looked like a well oiled machine, because I don't believe I saw one person involved sweat, or show that they were mortified (like I was) :lol:
