General New Old Zam

Looks pretty crafty and hose part in the neck is under gaffer tape and again another part I have no picture of. I guess towards the end I got tired of the whole project I stopped taking pictures.

Now it has coat of Rub'n'Buff

Test fitting with the prim. Slightly over sized in the front.

Last picture of helmet. No binoculars, though. My boyfriend made really nice ones for me, just need to dig archives to find another lost picture. :D

Next time I will make slush cast from the helmet. This is slightly heavy to use so resin would definitely be lighter.
 
Some pictures of Cummerbund belt.

I bougth these boot hooks from Germany but didn't buy the bottom part. And the time I started making the belt I couldn't find the parts anywhere. So had to buy another set which was closest I could find on the internet then. Too bad, these hooks were perfect.

As I wanted the belt be firm and not collapse under weight of holster, I made a pocket on the back side where I could slide firm leather in.

These are the other hooks I found then. Also, I made belt from leatherette and used the same dye than in skirt. But because of nature of the material, dye turned out like this.

Thank you. :)

Although, this Zam has been sold long ago and it wasn't complete then. And unfortunately I don't know any progress since then. I'll post what I still got left of this project and actually I am working on new parts. So maybe I'll get the new WIP posted soon.

This is amazing and I'm really enjoying following your progress, keep at it!! :)
 
I can handle all the sewing parts and the images of the pepicura creation finally put into perspective what they are for but do you (or any one else) know where to get the greeblies (like the medallions and such)? I would even be happy with a place to get (free or purchased) 3D print files for them. Thank you!
 
Thank you very much. No updates for now. Been too busy to even think about the whole project.

I also sell kits, if interested. I haven't been banging about much, though.
 
I feel like I am so late to this game - everything is almost 2 years old. But, wondering if you are currently doing any of the kits, what the entail, and how much? PM if you would like! Just starting to get pieces together to start on this. Biggest question I have right now, what thickness leather is the skirt pieces? Trying to decide between 5/6 and 7/9 from Tandy...
