Kicks arse! What is it made out of?

Wow, that looks absolutly great! :cheers

sweet job on that man. did you build that helmet, or purchase it???

Hi,
no the helmet as the rest of the armor was made by polymerarmor from CT.net
The special attachment of the Fixxer Costume like the communication pods at the backpack are made be me.
What you see is my paintshop.
Thanks Sven

looks awsome!

I had tried to get up with PA about buying a kit of theirs, but that was a month ago, and I have yet to hear from them. How long ago did you buy your set?

Hi, I ordered the set end of last year. I think it takes 1 to 2 month building- and shipping time.

I'm no expert on RC armour, but could you not attack the backpack like a Mando jet pack, using a harness system? That would take some of the weight off.

That's amazing Sven! You did a great job :)

Hi, thanks for all help.
I think I find a suiteable system. I´d try a harmess system like the Boba Fett Costume but the better way is a direct connection to the backplate with two hooks. I use the harness system to take the chest armor in shape. It´s connected with the harness inside of the front to get a counter balance to the backpack. Here´re some pics of the hooking system. Thanks for all. Sven
