I'm hoping to get mine done relatively soon as in I hope it doesn't take 4 years hahahahaha I'm already looking into upgrades from the parts I initially want to buy

I haven't checked your thread in a while and freaked when I read you may have to sell everything! Glad things are working out though, everything is looking great!

Good luck with your build LB66679! The momentary deadline is the Episode VII premiere. Some friends and I plan to watch the premiere in costume. But we will see, what will be missing then.... at the moment I got a helmet in the works, building and painting is done by DC Props from the UK. Hope to post some pics within the next 3-4 weeks.

I hope you make your deadline !! I'm going to be seeing the new movie with my garrison so we will all have buckets with us Hahahaha sounds like you have a lot together already ! I got gloves ordered , braids ordered , flack vest and neck seal ordered and cape ordered . Waiting for a couple emails then I'll have the majority ordered !

Progress on the Nemrod holster fibreglas copy. After weeks of filling, sanding, spraying, filling,... etc. I thought it would be time, to get on the first heavy duty rubber strap.
I still haven´t drilled the hole for the pistole barrel at the bottom of the holster. I´ll wait till I get one... MLS... stay tuned till I have some money... Also, the smaller strap, which you can see at the top of the second picture, will be mounted as soon as I got a pulce 40 sidearm. AND THEN I´ll paint it black and do some weathering.

So, actual waiting for my helmet, which is in the making by DC Props and for a Pulce 40 sidearm kit made by MLS.

Inspiring thread. It's kind of daunting thinking about all the little bits and bobs that go into a Fett costume, and to see how one pulls it off is definitely a good read!

Yesterday I started sewing the velcro to the flightsuit, which will secure the cod piece and butt plate.

Today I recieved a package from the US...


...what could it be? Of course a piece of art! Maybe a cloud?


No! It´s a MLS B-grade pulce 40 sidearm! Fantastic!


Hope to start working on it this afternoon and use my vacation to finish it! I´m so happy with it!
