FINAL COSTUME PIC!!!!Never thought I would say this...but I am DONE...

[terryfett]

After over 3 years and roughly $2-3 grand (I stopped counting for fear of crying like a baby), countless worthwhile,well enjoyed hours, and a lot of both frustration and sense of accomplishment, I am mere hours away from finishing my Fett...By hours, I mean actual working hours. I spent my last bonus check on upgrades for my ROTJ Fett (approved long ago for the 501st). He is now going to officially be a Special Edition fett with the addition of my new ESB bucket and 12 pouch ammo belt. I have a new vest/neckseal, jumpsuit, wookie braids, cape, some new gaunts I need to modify, and new gloves. I also have a nifty new (to me) foam ee-3 for trooping. Pictures will follow once I get a few more pieces in, and weather them, fit my armor on them, and take em for a test drive. That being said, after I purchased all these upgrades, I noticed my wallet still had $150 bucks in it...What did I do, you ask? I bought a partially painted Pre Pro 2 (AFettFullof$$...YOU ARE A SUPER TALENTED DUDE!!!) ASOK cold cast...A man has to have a hobby...so, I guess I need to start on my next build.
Pics to come in the near future.

congrats on being done brother, hows that broken foot?

 

[terryfett]

I promise pics when the few new soft parts get here and are weathered...and when I can get my boot on my broken foot....and yeah....I'll never be done...

 

[woodman]

HA! You'll be done when I get this stuff done and shipped dont be jumping the gun buddy! LOL

 

[Roninson]

Done = momentary pause until you discover something you want to upgrade. AMIRITE??

 

[Arkady]

Your suit is in many pieces right now, I plan on making it one piece today

 

[terryfett]

O.K. I have to admit that I am already tying to figure out how to afford a couple more upgrades....In hindsight, I think I wrote this post a couple days after breaking my foot, late at night, on vicoden...I'm totally never gonna be done. I really really really want the R.C. motorized rangefinder now...

 

[intwenothor]

So what you're really saying is that you aren't done at all and most likely never will be?

 

[terryfett]

pretty much

 

[intwenothor]

That's quite funny.

 

[Kcr7pr]

But... But. Theres no done in fett....

Grats on your semi done

 

[intwenothor]

I would like to see some pictures anyway. go on you tease.

 

[terryfett]

Still waiting on my upgrades to get here...weather em, attach armor, and then pics....I promise!

 

[terryfett]

SNEAK PEEK....This is a self portrait....Still waiting on my braids and cape (I know they're coming soon Woodman), and my new gloves (same thing Nasty). When they arrive, I promise to take full shots and update with a complete parts list.

 

[thebeans]

Now you're just teasing!!.....looks like a beauty, perfect colors on the lid and armor.

 

[terryfett]

My wookie braids and cape came in today...budget bicycle light chest display in, costume is complete-ish...trooping tomorrow in it, still waiting on some upgrades that should be here by the weekend. Running tomorrow with my old ammo belt and old gloves unless the upgrades come. Hopefully get some good pics, call this another teaser.
