Hey all! My names Lindsay and I'm just starting out on the journey to building my ROTJ boba armor.

My first time attempting to build anything like this and being the tiny 5'2'' girl that I am could use any tips / tricks people have up their sleeve.
Looking forward to this journey!

Thanks!!

Good luck!

Level3Fett is right about being patient. Some other things to consider are which type of material do you plan on using? Are you planning on making the entire costume or just the armor? Do you want to scratch build? You'll find plenty of threads about scratch building armor from sintra, a few using aluminum, and a few using trashcan armor. All of them can look fantastic if you take your time with the work. Do plenty of research and ask about any questions you have and it will turn out great. Good luck on your build and welcome to the forum!

Welcome aboard and a tip of advice is to read and check everything out. Don't just jump on the first thing you see, try and plan on sections you want to work on and focus on. There's a lot of info and help here, if you have a question, ask
