School hijacked me, but i've returned with much returning. I dont have pictures yet, but the armor is set on the flak vest and im still picking up little accents for the suit. I still have to do the visor on the helmet (but i have money now ;P)
i should be done before the end of the month, if i can take a breather from *sigh* my life! ;P
after all that crap i'll be done...for now
i'll keep you lot posted.

You know, just by coincidence, Tuesday is this day called "Halloween" where traditionally, some people dress up in costumes.
How lucky are you?!

Post them pics!

 

[rnlaing]

LOL PICTURES!
keep in mind i still need to get a better under suit top. You can totally see my elbows ;P
oh oh yeah, and gauntlets are gonna have to be gotten later, cuz im totally poor right now.
HERE!
oh yeah, pics are big. ;P
im gonna keep working on stuff until C 4 (getting a more durable gun belt for starters.) and..ya know...da guants

probably coulda done with some make up ;P i'll be all scarred up beneath it come tuesday.

so i dont think it turned out too bad for my first major star wars costume (i was leia at 9 and padme at 16)

The suit looks likes it coming along nicely. I really like your colors and also how you did the left knee decal.

 

[rnlaing]

[superjedi]

Cool! That came out great!
That's a heckuva head-bonker you're carrying around with you.

 

[rnlaing]

Besides, you can always use the phrase "I wouldnt touch that with a ten foot pole," and mean it.

 

[rnlaing]

tru. i decided to attempt and make my own garage gauntlets involving a plast cat box, a heat gun, a home made mold to make an impresion in the gauntlets, spray paint and velcro. i figure, what the hell, give it a shot...Its sure to be amusing, if not successful.

That's a mighty fine ship you got there too! what's its name?

 

[3720to1]

lookin good! love the braining pole! nice touch

 

[rnlaing]

Ship is called 'Deere 1' ;P Im going to paint my car to match my armor .I kid thee not . a big ole mando helmet on the hood
Now thats a sexy ride.

oh yeah, those gauntlets didnt work out, i dont know if i need a better heating gun. i think i should just stick with design and painting and let someone else make my hardware ;P'

so...looking for cheep gauntlets...who isnt, right?
