Bobby Fett UK
Well-Known Hunter
Hi Guys, so after a prolonged absence from TDH I am now hoping to be back here on a much more regular basis. As many of you guys will know I have been real busy with TK's for the past couple of years, but Boba has never been far from my mind and the attention to detail learned from studying Fett really helped when it came to TK's.
I have been working on Return of the Jedi parts in my absence and this is the first complete build using them. I thought I would post up some images and details of the build, with the owner of the suits permission. I should also say the suit is being modeled and it is not worn by the owner, who does fit it out better. This suit includes my new gauntlets, made from the data and information gained from the uppers we were granted access to by Art. I also added the galvanised flamethrower front section for these, the rotj variant. I think this adds to the over look of them. In addition we used the Clothears flight suit, which enabled us to add the full correct gauntlet hose attachment through to the Jetpack, which was one of the details I really wanted to include in the build. I know Clothears worked for months on the flight suit alone with some help and advice from a great guy here on the dent.
The parts are made by the following -
RS Prop Masters
Helmet (MR Proto casting, GRP, with hollow aluminum stalk)
Armour (vac formed 2mm ABS with machined aluminium studs and knee darts)
Jetpack (GRP with machined illuminated Beacon and stabiliser, fitted with working audio connectors)
Jetpack Harness
Gauntlets (GRP with machined aluminium rocket and wrist darts, fitted with audio connectors for jetpack connection)
Shin Tools (PU cast)
EE-3 Blaster
Ammo Belt (White vinyl, painted brown)
Clothears Costumes
Flight Suit with Neckseal
Flack Vest
Pouches and Spats
The Woodman
Girthbelt
Horse Hair Wookie Braids
Cape (Half Shelter)
MOW Studios
Gloves
Boots (with aluminium toe spikes)
Eco
All machining
RS Prop Masters
All painting and weathering
All assembly and finishing
