Couple of udpates. I was never happy with the forehead and the back rim on my helmet, so i decided to sharpen it up. I also made the arrows a bit higher. Ever since i modified my Boba helmet to look like Jango's, I made the rim a little higher causing the arrows to look closer to the rim. I also made the right ear look more the like ther real deal. In the celebration 2 helmet, that part is one whole part. So i bondo the seam together. I hope i never have to remove the stalk ever again.

Since I'm going towards Arena look. I modified my Stubby trusters to have vents. I just cut the fiber glass then from the inside glued in some sintra.

EVERYTIME I think I'm getting just a little bit closer to a Seeker-caliber costume, he just has to pull away even farther. Give us a chance, man! GAH! :angry

All kidding aside, great updates, man. I think I'll be doing the same to my nozzles. Where did you say you got those gloves? More importantly, where could I get them?

As for the wip/dart cord thingie - that came from yours trully Fettpride. Made out of rubber. That guy is amazing. I guess he realized how much i beat up my armor. Now his making stuff out of rubber.

Crazy. I have a suspicion though that your lights and/or camera are very warm.
