Completed Better than that old fossil - Jodo Kast (long WIP)
Swiftcloud replied to Alay's topic in Costume Building
???Bought a Hyperfirm EE-3??ROTJ??style.?? Probably won't use it in the end as Jodo Kast only uses it for the first act of the comic, and I'm modeling off the second??????????????????, but I'???ll find a use for it.????????? ?? ....or you could sell it to someone who is building a Boba Fett and desperately needs one. ?? -
MOW jet pack ordered! ????
-
I have neither time nor know how to scratch build. So scratch that. Lol ??I know MOW is almost out of production too. As soon as I can get my money back from ???Anever??? I will order from Christian. Unless, of course, if Sarah is successful with her casting. (She did an awesome job on the helmets at Terrificon!)
-
Thank you Sarah. I would gladly give you $50 plus more for your time and effort. Let me know if it works out. If not, don???t worry. I???ll get one somewhere.

It seems like the jet pack is like one of the hardest things to come by these days. Most of the trusted makers listed on TDH??have all retired from building it. Lots of old links. I should have started this build like 10 years ago, I guess. But Anavos has the nerve to keep me on a string for 5 months just to tell me that I would have to wait about another 6 more months. -After I had already paid in full! ??So, I???m willing to pay anybody who can sell me a descent kit that will be 501st approvable. Sarah, you have already helped me out in a big way??with the bucket you gave??me, so I just couldn???t impose on you again. But if you manage to pull a new casting from one, I would gladly pay for it. If not, I will order one from MOW as soon as I get my refund from Anovos (aka ???Anever???). -as in Anever again!
-
So, I???m kinda pissed and upset today. Anovos finally emailed me to tell me that the jet pack is delayed until winter! I pre-ordered it in April. That???s some bull shhhh right there. So, I am in the process of getting a refund and now I have to find someone else that sells the kit. ??? So, I???m thinking maybe Manofwar? Any ideas folks???

Can???t wait ???till I can troop with you all! Gotta get a legion ID soon. I feel like I???m missing out on lots of fun. -
I added the 18 kill stripes and some other details. (They look a lot brighter in the picture for some reason, but they really are dark orange) I have added carbon burn effect with the airbrush to the dent. I think it looks more realistic now. Also, I have replaced the Borden Connector with a better aluminum piece. I have placed an order from Rafelfett on Shapeways for a proper Rangefinder casing and lens. That should be the last modification needed. -I think.

Thanks Jimbo!

More progress. I am determined to make this helmet look more like the real thing. It started out as a Rubies with the most awful paint job. And it was painted as??the ESB version. I have done a lot of things to make this look more realistic. I think it???s coming along nicely. Got some small details to apply still. (I still have to install??the circuit board and dental files for??the rear vent.) But, I think it???s looking pretty good so far.

Actually, I have been working on a circuit for that. It just requires a few resistors, caps and LEDs as you mentioned. I could try to locate the parts from online catalogs, but if you have extras, I???m down! I have the micro switches already. I???ll PM you. Thanks a bunch!
