There's the tutorial if that's the kind of boot you want. If you decide to go this route post progress pics! I'd love to see it.

Thanks! The boots themselves need not be high, as the armour plating will go all the way back.

Well if you do a search for Jedi boots on ebay, there is a seller who has some boots for 30 bucks or so.
I have 2 pairs of those.

Sorry to post a little away from the original topic, but I wanted to thank you for the heads up on this. $40 shipped for those boots is a pretty good deal, I think. I'm guessing that they're decent enough since you have two pairs; is that a bad guess?

Oh, I do like this custom design, though.

Depends on where you live for shipping, but yeah they are good quality, I have had trouble with one pair, the other is fine.

I only bought those instead of the officer boots, because I don't know when my feet will stop growing.

 

[Sarim Thiri]

Just to be sure, is it these?

Uhm yep, I bought black ones, but there was a guy selling them for 5 bucks cheaper.
But yeah, those are them.

 

[Sarim Thiri]

Greatness, these are perfect. Thanks for pointing them out

Not a problem.

Well, I've finally made more progress. Not sewed for 2 years, I had to re-learn and align to my new sewing machine But here's the progress pics for the jumpsuit for today, more progress tomorrow, although I'm going to upload some armour plate progress today.

The fabric, untouched. The green is for the poncho and is wool (expensive stuff), and the gray is for the jumpsuit and is cotton/polyaster (the cheap stuff).

The first look at the lower part of the jumpsuit, first part. Still need to make the lines (see the reference in the first post).

-

I also got some pictures from the comic, on the helmet. Note that these are not the same guy as on the first post, these are other warriors who use similar armour. This type of rangefinder I'll make. I'm searching for clay, and sylicon and fibreglass to make this, when I get my helmet that is.

This is yet another variant, but I'll not make any use of this reference. But some of you might find this interesting in your own costumes.

-

Well this is it for now, please - shoot me with criticism and comments. I can take it.

First off good call on the "it-is-a-neo" point. i never would have thought of that. Second it is sweet. this is a good custom. I love the " true mandalorian" style, but neo's are close second.

Hello? Bump for some pics. I wannna see a neo!
