It's amazing how you can find everyday stuff to clobber together!

So true! However, I now have the curse of walking around and seeing items that can be used for anything other than what they are intended!
"Oh, I can grind that down to become a gauntlet greeble".
" Just a bit of Dremel work can make that thing a jetpack thruster activation button!"
 
Great write up and thread, very detailed. And it all looks awesome too, love the JP mods, may have to use some of you ideas :)
Keep it up, I imagine we all want to see more:rolleyes

Use any and every idea you need! My build isn't anything too new, I believe, just many different ideas from many different people brought together!


Here's a shot of the bondo filling and repair on the piano keys. There was no shortage of bondo used on this pack.

I sprayed a layer of primer, then metallic aluminum, then green. I sanded the green down to the metal layer for a lot of the metal weathering and then applied the rest by brush. I think I have the paint job in a good place for now. In the mail, I'm expecting some metal activation buttons for the thruster balls, a metal beacon, and some decals to finish this thing off. I'm just about ready to try all this stuff on together!

I'm still missing details like collar studs, a few jetpack bits, sidearm & holster, EE-3 blaster, knee darts, and boots, but I figured I would try everything on, regardless. There are some serious adjustments that need to be made (the biggest ones for me are adding a bunch of flight suit weathering and getting the jetpack to sit higher), but I am fairly pleased with the first full fitting!

I didn't really want to take my stuff off since it took me a while to get it all on, so I decided to try my hand at darts while in costume. Play a bounty hunter at darts, why don't you?
