Theres a contest?! Ooo oo oo I hope theres a contest!!!!!

Yeah he made a great job of those chest pieces didnt he!? The leather i found for him to use was a very very old leather jacket from a thrift shop / vintage shop. The leather is already worn and creased and discolored so it all adds to it i think Its big enough to use for other little bits of costume too if you feel the need

Moncal must be super busy!! I asked him about a holster kit and update on the helmet progress but he hasnt been on here this year yet heheh. Without a helmet im a bit stuck hehehe!!

Good luck with your chest pieces though, i think the trick is always to use a few different colors to make it look like you really killed ppl in it haha! Im sure yours will look great:cheers

Well there had better be! Right! There always has been at CI, CII and CIII ... well, you get the picture. I'm sure there will be one at Celebration Europe as well - so keep your eyes on that website so you can sign up for it in time! (Moncal's wife won 2nd place at CIII ! and ZIA won at Dragon*Con along with Jango a couple of years back *alzheimer's kicking in here!* ) So, you've got a tradition to uphold too!

It looks like you had an awesome holiday!!
Good luck with the progress and feel free to ask questions. We'll do our best to help and hmm.... remember cause it's been a while for some of us. Heck some of us old timers probably should re-read all the threads just to refresh our memories .......well........ not sure if I have time for that

Your making some excellent progress. I love the way this is looking, especially the weathering on the chest armor. Top notch stuff!

I have gone long without a rifle too. Many people have asked me hey-"don't you want... "then I think about carrying the big thang all around a con. If we have blasters, it suffices. But way cool having something so hard to make. the scope is hard to do.

Thank you people

I posted on Beckys id by mistake last night. We're slapping all the greeblie bits and scope on later today. It has been hard to do but that's why we do it.
Fair play, Becky loves it!

PS: I'll ask my friend if he would be interested in doing more. Seen as he now has the idea, repeats should be far easier for him

Here's a list of the completed stuff so far.

Rifle (it doesn't look that patchy in normal light - but I might spray it again)

Lid. Lovely looking thing but it's just too small for Becky's head :facepalm

Chest plates and lower ab armour. Still need to attach hose and small lavender leather panels though
