Finally starting my costume, slowly but surely. Bought this piece off EBay for 100 which it’s fiberglass and has a metal rangefinder, overall think it was a good deal. It’s not completely accurate and has some things I nitpicked like the painting on the cheek and the ear pieces as well as the...

ah, see I’m not that deep into the fett man yet though.. hopefully I will be soon.

Huh I didn’t know he had the PP2 that’s pretty funny ngl, and yeah the whole armor subject is hard for me atleast for me now until I build this PP1 suit then I’ll be able to dissect the armor repainted a lot better hopefully..

Haha true, maybe it landed somewhere in the hands of a collector perhaps since I’m pretty sure the PP2 got in the hands of a collector after it’s use. Still, it’d be cool if they didn’t just half scrap these suits or repaint them since it just hides away the original product, it might possibly...

Yeah, they unfortunately got rid of the eyes look which I think is better then the ears if only it had the kill stripes! But with that being said, I wonder what happened to the helmet since it just disappeared after that..

Haven’t seen those photos, definitely interesting that PP1 has a lot of photos with ears but no eyes.

that’s true, just no kill stripes and ears tbh but everything else is about the same

there’s a lot more ear photos then eye photos now that I question it…

That’s one of the reasons why I wanted to do it, I love the poncho look since it was taken from Ralph McQuarries drawings and imo the poncho looks better then the cape.

I was actually gonna get the flame thrower piece printed by NeoFett since I was gonna get his gauntlets!

I’m going with the first version with the eyes instead of the ears, I was actually looking at that photo yesterday haha, that promo suit is pretty cool since it features a different chest piece then what was used.

Yes, both the Pre pro 1 and 3 are the same, pretty cool take before they just got rid of the yellow gauntlet.

Alright I was looking at the flame piece and it is not the same or even close to ROTJ so that is a mistake, it’s more like an octagon shape tbh so that’s gonna be fun trying to create or search for.

I will be trying to go for completely accurate if possible since I’m a big perfectionist! But if not I’ll try my best and tweak things and mess around with stuff just to learn some knowledge on painting,tweaking, building armor itself, and will at least try making it to the best of my abilities...

I think that would work, it would just take a bit longer to figure out and tweak with but it shouldn’t be to hard since it is just a ST Flamethrower or ROTJ with an extended piece, but it’s not like I’m in a rush either since I wanna take this costume slow and be patient with it...
