That’s the plan. I have a few other surprises up my sleeve for this costume as well that I won’t be sharing here.

Awesome! Looking forward to it and I bet a lot of Jangos here would be excited to get pictures!

Little bit of progress today painting greeblies. I spent a lot of time cleaning up all of the cast parts, cutting out the center of the forearms, and sanding down the lower leg armor.

You definitely got mad skills! Looking forward to the final pics of this one! Also as many have said on here, that skirt came out AMAZING!! You should be proud of the work you've done on this!

Small progress made in the last week. I ended up priming over all my armor and unpainted greeblies, then repainted the aluminum finish. All of the greeblies got weathered today and I ended up remaking the chest armor from scratch. The fiberglass set I had before wasn’t formed properly to my body so I needed to redo it completely. Hoping to get the chest done this week with all of the mid section greeblies and rib tubes rigged up. The lower legs are almost done as well. Then all I have left are the forearms and helmet!

Looking very good! Having put one together for Mrs Fandango Fett this costume is fun to put together...

I cut the inscriptions by hand out of black ABS and I’m so excited with how they turned out!

Some progress to share. Lower legs are coming along and all of the greeblies are painted. I’m almost done with the chest that I remade. I need to finish up the chest, forearms, and boot pieces before moving onto the blaster and holster. Then the helmet will be my final piece to focus on.

I taped the torso pieces together for test fitting purposes and it’s starting to finally feel real! I’m going to cut the leather stomach piece today, but this was a really exciting sight to see.

Today I made the ankle armor pieces. They are primed for now and will probably paint them later in the week. I almost settled for painting on the recessed lines, but I found a solution and made them the right way!

Ankle armor is done and I made the thigh strap for her little dagger thing. I also added hinges to the chest armor today and rigged up all of the belt greeblies. Next up is the blaster.

After the blaster I have to make the holster and then assemble the helmet and make the brim. Then it’s just a few small details here and there like rigging up the abdomen pieces and adding left forearm cuff liner. I’m hoping to have it all done by December for a local convention, but I feel pressed for time with the holidays approaching.

This is very awe-inspiring! Truly outstanding work! I assume your hope is to have this completed in time for Halloween? I love the shading you were able to accomplish on your Shin Guards (if that's what they're called). My 10 year old daughter has taken an interest in this hobby and wanted something too. After Halloween this year I'll be staring a Leia Boushh costume for her! Which I'm hoping is an easier time than my ROTJ Boba Fett I did!
Keep up the amazing work! Can't wait to see this finished!

It's always those small details that are the killer.

Tiny bit of progress to share. I have the stomach greeblies all rigged up and the tubes attached. Just need to attach them to the vest now. Today I cut the holster pieces. Waiting to dye everything when I have the helmet brim ready to go as well so the color will be consistent. I have to finish everything over the next six weeks to wear at ECCC. Crunch time!
