Hi folks, after looking around for a UK or EU manufacturer of Boba Fett armor i decided to give it a try myself.
I have bought some 3mm Styrene sheets and traced the stencils onto them.
After tracing i cut out the bits in a raw fashion.
Then i cut them even further down and left them with a 3-5mm edge along the stencil for a beveled edge.
Here's the shoulders after i shaped them with a heat gun.
Parts of them came out a bit wavy but i think i can make them work.
I have applied some model putty along the edged of the shoulders and plan to sand them a bit to smooth them out more.
Here's the first bit of the chest after shaping.
The edge is kinda a pain to shape right but i think i got this one on the right track.
I will update this thread when i get further along, any comments or critique would be appreciated!
