Another Jango from Louisville

[vinmanmac]

Hey there. I’ve been collecting materials slowly over two years to create this Jango

I’m on a tight budget so many pieces I’ve had to make from scratch. Not as great as some but it’s the compromises I’ve
Got to be ok with.

All comments are welcome. Thanks.

First off this jet pack was an old Ruffin pack that I’ve done a ton of work to in order to convert to an arena.

I did splurge on the gauntlets. Cruzers are so accurate it’s one item I really didn’t want to settle for less. Took about 6 hours t assemble.

Found some great boots after about a year searching on eBay. They are shorties but the soles are 100% accurate so I think they are a great solution

Printed the blasters from 3-d files found on thingiverse. Still needs work.

I purchased a hide of 8 oz leather and made the girth belt holsters and ammo pouch belt over a couple weeks probably the most challenging part so far. I’ll post photos of all of them completed soon

Got the ocean blue on today.

Rub and buff applied to first gauntlet. Compared to the raw. Next up finish the second. Weather. And some EVA foam for better fit. Then connect the hoses, missle and the remaining darts.

 

[vinmanmac]

Gauntlets almost complete. Need to add darts.

Great work .. if I may ask how did you apply the rub n buff ?

Nice job man. I'm a little jealous. I just started. Working on a cardboard version. I hope it comes out as well as I believe it will.

I completed it three days before celebration. So exciting to be there.
