hello,
my name is Hinrich and I want to have a Boba Fett suit.
So, last year I started building one. I m also on the RPF for some time, so maybe some of you have already seen this, but I think everything depending Boba Fett should be posted here too.
My attempt was not to make an 1:1 original Suit, but a (cheap?) mixed Suit that should look a little bit like the Pre-Pro suit with some details out of both of the movies. And I wanted it to look a little real life so I used stainless steel for the helmet and aluminum for the armor to give it a heavy look and make it feel like a real armor. so here are some pictures of the progress I made until now:
first I bought a bowl as base for the helmet...
than I cut out all the parts of a sheet of steel and welded everything together
than painted and weathered...
and with a padding added
than I started the costume with buying an overall and attaching the short sleeves and the pockets
the flackvest and the other softparts were sewn by myself, cloves are modified brown leather gloves and the belt is just a brown belt...
modified shoes:
and the welded aluminum parts:
I attached them with some velcro
and this is were I am now. almost finished but I still have do make the gaunlets and the nipples on the shoulders are also missing. I also bought one of these cheap Rubies EE3 Blaster and modified it a bit. not perfect, but for the price not too bad I think...
pew pew
