New Hunter
Hi TDH! A little background on me: I’ve been a Fett fan my whole life and I’ve always wanted to put a high-end Fett build together. Almost 20 years ago I took the plunge and purchased a full build to the tune of a few thousand dollars which ended up being both horrible quality and severely damaged by the post office in transit. The experience and lost money from that build put me off the dream until about two years ago when I met some local Mandalorian Mercs who really got me motivated to join TDH and after a few months of lurking I gave in and started again. I'm creating this thread to help hold myself accountable to my goals
My immediate goal is to get to the point where I have a wearable costume by September 1. 501st application will come after and I will make upgrades as appropriate. I’m shooting for L1 first so I’m not entirely worried about L2 approval requirements at this time. I'd love any feedback or constructive criticism as well as your opinions on how to progress or things I've overlooked.
Here’s my current project status:
I have also amassed several extra pieces I can leverage including a full set of painted RKD plates, an extra DVH jetpack, a set of Man of War gloves which I've already upgraded, and a jumpsuit, flak vest, and neck seal which are too small for me.
Pics to follow!
