Hello My Fellow Fett's,
Most of you may know me from working on my ROTJ Fett all last year and even continuing into this year with upgrades (
That old saying that Fett is never complete). I know it is not 100% accurate but it was one of my most proudest creations that I've ever done! Here's just a few of my favorite pics of that build....
(
I have even updated a few things since these last pics) If you're interested in that journey, here's the link:

But enough of my ROTJ Fett, today I wanted to start to walk you though my process of building a static 1:1 Jawa prop. This Jawa will stand at exactly 36" as per the article on starwars.com.....

My inspiration was from a fellow TDH member -
Lazerjock ! Who built up this Jawa - which I thought was done great!
