WIP boba esb custom

New member and love the site and people here!
my plan is a near accurate boba esb that can turn into a mythos when desired
i love the look of both
so far I am pleased to have a finished DVH helmet , which I added the JC27 servo and micro tilt rangefinder light! Very awesome stuff guys thank you both
i also added a fan with a tube that pushes air straight down the center of the visor with a toggle switch located at the bottom of the bucket rim
and a liner with cut ins for access to the battery packs,the fit is perfect and I couldn't be happier!thanks for all the support so far guys,

Here is the rest so far , I have a lot of work to do....
nothing is weathered , still waiting on my esb gauntlets , and not happy with the chest layout, it's on magnets so I can rearrange and I think I'm going to have a tailor shorten the flak jacket and I heard wearing it inside out looks better but I haven't tried it yet. Fettinator chest light installed

I agree about the flak vest. It looks to long. There should be about half an inch under the ab armor to the bottom of the vest. With my vest, I had the option of going shiny side in or shiny side out (with the opposite for the neck seal). Both are correct. Depending on how your vest is made, it may not just work to flip it inside out. Weathering will take some of the shine off anyway.
What's the the pouch (holster?) hanging off the best there? Is that part of the Mythos?
Good luck. Looks good so far.
 
Padding was a surprise find available on eBay , I chopped it up and repurpose it to customize the fit it works great.
just look up boba fett helmet liner or padding I think, he has 2 versions the cheaper one worked for me, I trimmed it down to fit and the excess was used to fill in a forehead and cheek pads and still cover everything after, he is out of country so it took a month to get, 25$ I think

Here is the eBay seller, I bought the top one, in my helmet when you see what looks like a white spot on the check corner it's the on off toggle switch for the fan poking through the liner
