One thing I have to say is you won't make it into many/any cons with that sword. Aside from that, I don't think it would look too bad, maybe add something to the sheath.

Ive painted some of my armor.I have to wait for the weather to clear up to paint the rest.
As always,post your thoughts
P.S.The reason it is different from above is because i could not find any flat,grey,plastic spray paint.
As they say,roll with the blows

Im starting on my ammo belt.
The green pouches are fabric stuffed with cotton.
The brown pouches are regular ammo pouches.
The black things are pvc sections painted black and pluged with a hole plug
and red tape around the center,there supposed to be grenades.
The belt is just a cheap leather belt from Longs.
Tell me your ideas and thoughts.

You mentioned that you were looking for a resin or fiberglass helmet on Ebay. Try contacting SgtFang as he sells decent resin mystery helmets for (I think) $115 shipped. I like mine and the price is definitely right. You'll have to buy the visor and the range finder stalk seperately, it doesn't come with the kit. It'll take some time to Bondo or Bondo glazing & spot putty the rough spots (as it is a recast of course) and the dent as well, after that you're set.
I have another suggestion concerning your vest. I just got ahold of skygunbro and he's going to start working on my Jango style vest made from a faux leather/vinyl or otherwise known as "pleather" for $50 + shipping I believe. And that includes the material also. I'm sure he could sew you a black Jango style vest (cooler looking than the Boba vest in my opinion) too. And it saves a novice seamstress alot of time, cursing, and fingers sewn into the vest. I hope this helps you out in some way. Should you want they're contact info, PM me and I'll point you in their direction...Oh, and your armor is really coming together nicely btw.

Looking good, but your dome seems a bit too clean. You have damage on the bottom but not the top.

Actually, I was just thinking that myself, either that or put some stuff into the bag looking one so it has some bulk and less flippyness to it. You also may want to get a different belt buckle, or possibly just make something to go over the top of that one, the current one looks a little bit odd.
(I personally use a big heavy duty belt bought from lowes for like 20 bucks. thing is massive, awesome, and looks very industrial.)

I'd recommend flipping the belt behind you so that you do not see the buckle, but you can have the pouches facing your front. Also I'd recommend that you weather up the pouches a little with the acrylic wash method.

you stand very wierd haha, but that is beside the point.
I would paint the scratch marks some sort of metalic silver and weather over it, that way it looks like dull metal.
Or tape off the area around the scratches and R n B it shiny, then weather it.
In fact, weather the whole helmet, not just the white, I already told ya that Cameron, what are ya doin????
Haha just kidding, but seriously, weather it.
