Hi:D I im going to be the first Bo Katan in Scandinavia and maybe Europe aiming for an 501st approval for her costume. Im going to construct a Bo Katan costume and post my WIP here. I have also made various posts about helmets armor etc. here on the forums asking for advices as you maybe have seen.

Welcome to TDH. Don't be afraid to ask questions, because the answers are here if you ask. Good luck with your build.
 
I would recommend a Dremel tool with a flex shaft. I'm not sure if they sell dremel tools where you are, but something similar would work.

Hi and welcome. Being a "local" amd all I'll still keep this in english, just for the audience.
You might find dremels at Claes Ohlsson, they have plenty of gadgets. Also Biltema and Jula might be good places to look.
Good luck on your build :)

look around for the Palladium "pallabrouse" in Vapor/metal color. It has grey canvas and the sole is in a metaloptik... i think it fits more for Bo-Katan.



I doubt that with wit the first in europe btw so lets see how fast you are XD
 
you mean these? yes i know she have metal on her boots and thought that i could glue on the boot kit and color it metal, but her sole should be black i think it is more easy to color the black canvas in a grey tint and keep the sole black, as you see on this pic of bo katan her sole is black :D
I have not yet seen any Bo Katan in the 501st list but i could be wrong ;)

whoah, with all that blond hair you may suggest a Santine as second costume? (they have the same face anyway. :D )

for the boots: Hm i thought tinting white to grey would be easier. Some Rub'n'Buff for the Tip of the sole would might work also.

For the europe thing: Well, not everyone keeps updates for the 501th for example :D
 
I will use a balclava to prevent all my hair falling out of the helmet, and a helmet skirt :) as you say i can do that to with the boots tint it grey and use rub n buff ;) great that it is more bo katans in europe btw :)
 
I must say that it's great that you're making something other than the "main characters". We need more diversity in sweden for our sci-fi fairs :)
 
Thanks :) i chose to make bo katan because i wanted to be a mandalorian female and bo katan is one of the mandalorians that is accepte d by the 501st legion and i have not yet seen a scandinavian one and thought we might need one :)
