Desert Dads Jango Wip

New Hunter
I'm going to build a Jango and my son is building a Boba. I've been reading a fair bit over at Mandalorian Mercs and just discovered this site ... very exciting!

My plan is to build us something wearable by Halloween with San Diego Comic Con as the goal for meeting the CRLs. I want to build as much as possible our selves and do the builds as inexpensively as possible. That being said I want the final product to be excellent. So much for introductions, here's the plan, feedback appreciated:


  • Jumpsuit
    • We have a couple of USAF flight suits to get us started
    • Plan on sewing our own eventually to capture all the correct details

  • Boots
    • Combat boots to start

  • Vest
    • Looks like we'll have to sew something

  • Helmet
    • Store bought Helmets to start
    • Buy from a vendor here eventually

  • Armor
    • Already downloaded the templates and bought the sintra
  • Gloves
    • Looking

That's it to start. Once we've got those elements in place we'll work on the rest, Probably starting with the gauntlets

  • Belts
    • Journeyman Protector Belt
    • Ammo Pouch Belt

  • Holsters

  • Gauntlets

  • Jetpack
 
Good luck. I'm still looking at where I can find Sintra locally, but I'm trying craft foam first. Best of luck! I was also having trouble with what to start with for base clothing, but maybe I'll just do tshirts and longsleeves first time around :)
 
If you are looking for sintra try sign shops in your area. I walked into one and they gave me enough 6mm scraps that I made 2 sets of chest armor.
