Long overdue update.

Hi, sorry I haven't posted in a while. But here is an update.

I finished spraying my helmet. I have sprayed all of the colours onto it now, all except the yellow killstripes, although I do have a stencil for it which is going to be sprayed yellow/orange hopefully by the end of the week. Pictures:

I have also added a make shift 'make-do' visor that lasted me through comic-con in October and the halloween season, which was made of 2 sheets of acetate; one green and one dark grey. Did the job perfectly, but I felt the mandibles needed the added rigidity of a solid visor so I have bought one, and I am now waiting for my hot-glue gun to arrive! I have also finished my knees, although I have had a comment from someone on TDH that was saying that he thought they were a bit too yellow for ESB. But, I am going to leave them for now, then maybe in the future, mask them leaving the scratches then giving them a dusting of an orange spray paint.

 

Here are some pictures of my costume in its glory over Halloween and Comic-Con!

 

Armour!

Rest of the armour has arrived.

Another update including helmet painting!

I have started to paint the helmet and a lot is coming on now!

Another update helmet is primed!

Have sprayed it silver since, will upload it tomorrow. I have also begun to mask the silver damage.

Picture update

Wookie scalps are Done

Finally finished another item! My wookie scalps and they cost me nothing! My friend was able to get some offcuts of some extensions & wigs and she just braided them! Done! :D

Other news

Jetpack is primed and ready to paint, the missile is painted and finished! Thrusters are getting there, just more detail in those than anything else. Armour will be in the post this weekend, blaster is already on it's way as are the knee armour plates. Along with this I ordered some items from evolution. I bought aluminium knee darts, gloves and utility pouches, but because he was delayed sending them by 15 days he has put something in to 'help finish' my costume as 'compensation'. Which is awesome! Top notch service!
