Hey everyone Armydad here, its been a while since I have been active on here, moving from Italy back to the states and getting settled back home side has taken some time to get my hobby shop together. Ill be upgrading my armor (working with RKD on a set now) and eventually my helmet. A few other tweeks here and there to complete a awesome Fett.

So my first question: SE Fett has ROTJ wookie braids or ESB? Feel free to post, Im always open to new ideas and suggestions. So stay tuned, plenty of pics to come as this comes together!

The SE set is not like the ESB or ROTJ. There are 2 SE sets for the promo and screen used.

The SE fett is a damn mess. Sorry for the lack of details.

Thanks guys, and yes I know SE is a hot mess, that's a bit of the fun for me lol. I've seen SE Fetts with ESB braids, with ROTJ braids and mixture of both or completely different. I've already been approved with the ones I already have, I'm just looking for the most accepted or widely used set. I've learned a whole lot in the last few years, and have some new tricks up my sleeves for my upgrade. I'm going for one badass Fett when I'm done, got a good start with most of my gear, just got to get the rest up to par. I'll post a parts list a little later and plenty of pics when the ball starts rolling and I'm in full swing. Definitely some before and after shots.

Upcoming upgrades/ changes:
New armor: chest set, collar, back plate, shoulder bells, kidney/ butt plate, knee pads (RKD armor)
Flight suit: re-dye, adjust for better fit
Flak vest: replace if I cant line up new armor with existing eyelet holes
Jet pack harness: new harness rig
Blaster: finish paint job/ touch detailing

These are the first upgrades I'll be making, other minor details and tweaks along the way (chest light set etc.)
A full helmet rebuild and paint later down the road, but that will probably be another thread all its own.
