Jango Fett for Work

AtomWest

Hunter
Last Friday my job announced that we will be having a Star Wars day tomorrow May the 4th, so over the weekend I have been working on this Jango Fett costume for it.
Now the costume is not very accurate, but to the untrained eyes of my fellow co-workers it should do the job and impress the bunch.
I don't plan on making any changes or upgrades to it, it was just something I put together with what I had on hand at home and what I could pick up on short notice.
I am investing most of my money for my ESB Boba Fett build instead :D

Here is a breakdown:
Helmet - Rubie's Helmet that I weathered and inserted a welding visor
Armor - White sintra armor I picked up from Ebay from a while back, painted, weathered and resized
Gauntlets - also from Ebay, so misc Mando style that I painted/weathered. The rocket is out back drying
Flak Vest - Black vinly from Joann's, cut and shaped
Flightsuit - Redkap coveralls I found a while back from a thrift store, a bit baggy in the legs
Ammo Belt - Pouches again from Ebay and a brown belt I had laying around
Girth Belt - From Amazon
Blasters - Rubie's orange/white blasters from Party City I think, included holsters which are not seen and outside re-painted and drying
Shoes - Still need to finish the shoes, I am just grabbing an old pair I had with a treaded sole and attaching the armor pieces on them.

I bought a some of this stuff way back before I heard/joined TDH and the invested some time and research to quality and accuracy: girth belt, ammo pouches, armor etc...
Once I found this site I pretty much buried the goods until now :p


I think it turned out decent enough, kinda proud of the weathering I did, wished I used a shinier/chromier silver for the armor though.
Lets see how it does at work tomorrow!

Awesome, Way better than what I did for Star Wars Day
The guys at work wanted me to wear the Jango costume that I have been working on but because it's still a WIP I had to wear my Rubies costume that I had laying around.
I just marshaled out a KC-135 with my Jango bucket on lol. I wish somebody would have taken a pic.

HAPPY STAR WARS DAY !!!! May the fourth be with you.

Lets see if I can remember some of these prices from my older gear:

Helmet - $30
Armor - $100
Gauntlets - $100
Flak Vest - $10
Flightsuit - $10
Ammo Belt - $40
Girth Belt - $20
Blasters - $15

Paint
Krylon Metallic Silver rattle cans - $7
Black/brown acrylic tube paints - $3
Velcro for free, got it from work!


So around $250, give or take.
I ended up spending like $40 over the weekend, most of the stuff was just sitting in storage totes.
 
Thats an awesome job man for a days work and the price!, i had that same set of sintra armor for my jango build once upon a time!!
