A Simple Man Trying to Find His Way in the Galaxy Build- Pic heavy!

Progress update! Because I want the centre half pipe to be removable so I can get to the gubbins inside, I've decided to use the centre beam and piano key greeblie as the retaining clip. I'll add a magnet or two for extra security. And yes yes. I know some of the angles and measurements are off a little, alas the joys of not many actual full measurements of depths etc. So I've had to guess and eyeball a lot of it. But it's getting there!

They're we go! One post-season 2 jetpack! My Fett is going to be what I envision he looks like a little while after he took the throne. So a little more battle - worn, but not as much as the movies. The air canisters and LEDs are going to be added on a later date!

love the paint! Also did you follow a template to make this?
Thank you!! And no. There aren't that many consistent measurements out there, so I used what I could find and eyeballed the rest - which is why some of the parts aren't that accurate/are slightly out of proportion! But it's good enough for me!
 
I've been watching your progress especially on the carbine, and you answered a lot of my queries. I went the route of a 3d printed model of it , but I want to add a genuine scope to mine. Amazing work.

Thank you dude! And ahh, yeah, I don't have a printer, so I just did what I could with what I had, lol! I'm still building the costume, but it's kinda on hold at the moment due to me having a backlog of other people's commissions to get done! Watch this space for more, I'll be back!
 
Well I just discovered that Australian Customs doesn't like it when you buy a rifle scope from overseas (without an import permit) so bloody annoyed as it was the correct scope. So gutted over that
