The chest armor is still a bit too bright and will have to be darkened later tomorow or tonight if I feel like it.


Comments are appreciated. Let me know what you think so far.

Looks awsome ner'vod!

[Devilstar2k2]

Lookin' good. :)

[Barmic Rin]

Impressive, CD'ika!

[ThreeQuadFive]

So is that literally made from a plastic trashcan?
Can you share your plans/schematics?

[amichaels]

Another cheap source of armor making plastic would be the plastic barrels that industrial soap for carwashes and whatnot comes in or plastic 55 gallon pickle barrels. A lot of the time you can get the empties for free.

Damn that armor is sweet CD. Great work. The "blaster dents" look particularly nice.

[Hasid Lafre]

[987654321a]

That's a nice job with the latered paint for that weathered look, Countdown! How much you got left to do?

Must be made of durasteel, though, beskar doesn't dent!

[Darth Mortis]

Holy crap thats lookin flippin sweet! ive seen a couple of diy low budget Fett tutorials online and i must say yours take the cake! cant wait to see the finished product, especially if you decide to make a helmet (that would be an awesome tutorial, cause i havent seen one done yet) also, when you get along in the build, could you throw up some pics and some comments on how you attach it (how you are going to wear it) i am new to the crafting, and am currently designing my first few hilts, but i am also putting down on paper some designs for "sith-armor".

These are a little on the small side, just a heads up. Looking good though.

Yea I heard about the BM sizing, and quite honestly, after trying on a friends BM, it felt nice, even with the amount of padding he had in there. I will be collecting alot of helmets, including an MR, FP, Sgt. Fang if I can get a hold of him, and probably a DP95. All will be different paintjobs and be on display in my star wars museum, AKA, my room. So if one fits better than the other, I will use that and the rest for display.

More progress on the painjob. The shoulder is close to finished!
