DarthBrik's costume progress

[DarthBrik]

Hello all I decided that I should put up my Boba progress (Its gonna be a haloween costume)

First of all, I had built a paper costume for a starwars party not to long ago. Pic here

The other 4 people are 501st members! Blacked out the ones face cause she wasent wearing a mask. I won the costume contest.

I have pretty much finished the wookie scalps here

And I sewed myself a belt pouch (thanks for the tutorial Batninja.)

And as you can see from the first pic i have some trash can armor.

I bought a Hasbro boba fett helmet and have started to weather it. (ill get the visor tommorow.)

Ive got more done but ill have that up tonight.

 

[Evilhemmes]

great job, looking good

 

[DarthBrik]

Just got some more of the weathering done.

Just curious; are you going to modify the size of the visor/cheeks at all? If so, how are you planning to go about it? And what type of can did you use for the armor?

 

[DarthBrik]

Im going to use this template http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/f23/new-hasbro-boba-helmet-mod-template-38535/ (the link is at the bottom) for the visor Ill be adding plastic to the top of the visor. Ill be getting materials tommorow after noon.

Very cool! I'm excited to see how this turns out.

 

[DarthBrik]

Well got delayed on the visor part (gotta hate those rainy days) But i got some more of the weathering done

 

[DarthBrik]

It took a while but I started up school so about no free time anymore...

But I finished it!

I'll get those gloves done soon....

 

[DarthBrik]

My grandma found a jumpsuit...

Excuse the china plates but there it is what do you think?

 

[Fett 4 Real]

looks like a ghostbusters jumpsuit

 

[DarthBrik]

Really does it?

I have no idea but i know it will at least look perfect to the non boba costumer....

 

[ADeviantMuse]

It looks tan to me, but that might just be the lighting. I think you'll want either gray or light blue, depending on which Fett you're doing.

 

[DarthBrik]

I havent got it yet but it a bit lighter that you think (not the best camera.)

And i'll get a better one if i like how this costume turns out by halloween...

 

[DarthBrik]

Havent updated this thread in a while but I have base coat painted my armor (except the back) and heres an awsome shoulder my bro painted the mando crest on.

 

[OMGitsJodoKast]

what are you using to weather the helmet? I have that same one and was considering doing the same.

 

[DarthBrik]

just generic Apple barrel acrilic paints thats all and these templetes.
(please not that these templetes dont have the dome you'll have to use pics for that.)
