    My first official troop is in the books at the Nashville Comicon. I trooped around 2-3 hours that day. Awesome experience! Looking back to the beginning of this build it felt surreal. From starting with a 3d printed helmet and armor set, to replacing everything and repainting everything so much...

    Thanks! sandtrooper8867 The material itself took the thread nicely. There were a few times where we had to move the metal tubing around and position it where my wife could get a good thread. Definitely recommend a second hand. Most of it is just folding over the strap around the tubing and...

    Last weekend was a productive one! I assembled the HH Props/ Bigdane Jetpack Harness. My wife actually did all the sewing, so she basically did all the work, and my Mom had stopped by, so I recruited her to help as well with strap length, jetpack height/ect. I also made the neccessary cuts in...

    Happy Fett Friday Bounty Hunters! I wanted to update my TDH build thread on recent progress. If you follow my IG, it's nothing new, but I got after the shin tools a couple weeks ago. Really happy with how they turned out. I used a real Paterson squeegee and stirrer to complete the project as...

    Uploading another shot of my ESB Fett for update. Next projects on deck are the jetpack harness assembly, shin tools, cod, kidney, and collar paint ups. That should get me to where I want to be before submitting for approval. Working my way there

    So you’ve never used an airbrush before?

    I'm looking into airbrushing now. This is very helpful info, as I know very little about it at the moment. Thanks for the info! Short4ATrooper

    Before(1st pic) and after. Finished up my chest and abdominal armor this weekend. Still need to add the red acrylic film over my Fettronic chest display, but VERY happy with my new armor. Wouldn't have been possible without Jurassic_Fett, his stencils, his critiques, and his attention to detail...

    Went back and misted the shoulder after talking with Jurassic_Fett. Much better looking now. I've also been painting on my new Viva Fett armor with his critiques as well and it has been an awesome experience so far. I'm putting the finishing touches on the right breastplate tonight/this weekend...

    Hawk_Fett_ ESB Build

    I couldn't live with the little inaccuracies on my shoulder so I had to re-do the re-do. Which is pretty much normal at this point for any Fett builder ha. I still need to add some more weathering/darken the area over the Skull, but feel much better after the edits to the edit. I changed the...
