I got the gloves , knowing they dont go with the ROTJ, but I like them, and most people wont notice, lol. I'll use them occasionally but I do have proper ones... as from the couple of pictures I took at lunch: (i do wanna do a prepro also, so I am kinda gonna slowly collect parts as I have $$, I need a different helmet and gauntlet, and blaster)
so here are a couple pictures of things done recently...
the braids are attached to the vest, and the new chest light display board is installed in the back. you can see the wire right now because its not plugged into the battery. when its attached to the battery you can't see it. it looks a little lopsided because its just thrown on the little mannequin half, not closed at all in the back so its leaning a bit.
the board, uses nylon spacers to attach it to the armor, then wrapped the cord around it and held down with electical tape, battery velcroed down.
shoes with temporary spikes and weathered. I have metal spikes coming in eventually. i hadnt wanted to spend the money on them, but I decided to go ahead and do it :/
a finished glove, I'm pretty proud of them, lol. made them myself with out buying them. well I used parade gloves but dyed them and made all the add on bits from tackle twill (the correct material) bleached out grey.. about the right color for ROTJ.
