Thanks for sharing that back pic, Ken, as it's helpful in showing the ammo belt's construction.
So correct me if I'm wrong in concluding the suit is using what looks like a faded ESB flight suit, two left ROTJ gauntlets, Boba style back, knee and shoulder armor, a Solo blaster/holster rig, and Boba ammo pouches along one side.
Now three things I'm unsure of are all of the various ammo belt pockets/accessories, the boot accessories, and whether or not the vest looks like it has a rectangular pattern to it. Has anyone seen any of those items on other costumes to clarify?

Started to cannibalize the base of a right Jango gauntlet with the top of a left gauntlet with a Boba keypad area to try and replicate one of the concept gauntlets...
Received a few of the various hardware pieces, aluminum cylinders I'll cut up for the belt accessories, blaster, vest, and began making some of the Boba style ammo pouches. Need to find an ESB flight suit, but until then my Jango suit will stand in...
I like using natural materials, so I'm thinking about using a black vinyl for the first prototype and then using real leather once I've got a pattern down that I'm happy with.Cruzer - I'm curious. The black harness above the flak-vest looks like a shiny leather material in some of the pics, sort of a nylon (like those Northface puffy jackets) in some, but also looks like the same material as the flak-vest in others. Which direction were you leaning towards for yours?
Have a great vacation and happy holidays bro.
Started work on the holster wet-forming mold. I'm on the fence of whether I should do a Han Solo design with the straighter barrel shaft or maybe a one-off design and do a tapered barrel shaft. Any thoughts?
