Working on my first build and it's going to be Jango.

Some of my items have begun arriving.

Awesome leather work from Delta13

Girth belt from Pascal in the Netherlands.

Boots and Flak from Gio Crophouse62

Arkady did a fantastic job on my flight suit with material that Roguetrooper (Tom Gardner) found for me.

Have to work on my pistols.

Armor and bucket coming from Cruzer

Arena jet pack coming from RS Props

Will post when I start painting whichever comes first.

Resin - will take some work to get them ready for paint. $100.00 for both - not a bad deal - but not perfect either - as much cash as Jango is setting me back, my plan is to start with these since the CRL doesn't require them and go for some aluminum ones later. Good luck!

Whos Pascal from the Netherlands, I am looking for a Girth Belt and I'm from the Netherlands myself so that would save me a ton on shipping. Awesome build btw.

What was the turn around time on those boots? I've ordered other boots from Crow62 befire without issues. but it seems to be a bit hit and miss for people.

The above link is for Pascal. Tell her I sent ya. Great work and turn around time.

Gio was a bit slow but delivered about 3 weeks later than promised. Great work though.

Thanks for the link. They are extremely difficult to cast I am told.

I have seen Cruzers belts, nice belts. The belt I have is approvable. Width, rows, height, etc. backing is not a CRL requirement. Pascal stays in contact with her GML regularly. If you want a good belt at an affordable price she is a good alternative. And if speed is a factor.

I would add that backing myself. Just to keep the latches from moving and spreading.

Not a bad idea! Although you can't tell it, the rows are actually sewn together so they will not completely separate.

Yeah - this thing rocks!!! I had a pack earlier from another source and sent it back - no comparison - most definitely worth the wait!!

I need some advice - (Novice here) - I love that RS marked where the pieces go - what suggestions do you have to help me put them exactly where they belong after I paint over the lines drawn in? And advice on how to drill the holes to screw the thrusters in etc.

Just label the parts with right, left, top and bottom and then do your painting over the actual pack. The main thing is that you have the correct sides lined up.....I actually put mine on the wrong side originally and had to take them off and redo the work.


As far as drilling goes, it will be very easy to drill through the areas needed. I just used my dremel and took my time.
