New Hunter
This is my first Fett costume, and this is what I've wanted to have since I started costuming. I'm not one of those real handy types that you find around this board, and I teach school, so I had to wait for the right build to show up at the right price. It came together about a week ago, and since then, I have been "Fetting it up" around the house, with my wife helping with adjustments to the suit.
The chest armor and gauntlets are WickedBeard, the helmet is Bobamaker. Many of the other parts are from members here, although the knees, cod and back will eventually be replaced due to quality and lineage. The ammo belt is due for an upgrade, and the blaster is unknown make, and will also be replaced ASAP...pretty much as soon as I figure out where I want to get one.
I've been toying around with adding my voice amp system, but to be honest, I'm having some space issues in the bucket (in addition to technical difficulties with the system), so that's on the back burner for now.
These pictures were taken last weekend, after a bunch of 501st buddies showed up at my house and helped me fit and re-paint a few of the pieces (like the cod, back, and back). Since then, we have taken in the flightsuit a bit, tightened up the flak jacket, secured the hoses, and made several other small adjustments. I'll post more when I take it out for the first time.
Big thanks to people who came out and helped with this...not sure what their names are here, but I know some of them are on here. Couldn't have done it without their help.
One thing is for sure...my son loves this!
