Alay Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Realized my Jodo Kast costume is probably going to take multiple years at the current rate, and I really wanted a bounty hunter costume.?? Since I already have a Line Officer that I use as my posh-and-perfect dressed character, I thought someone that looks as slapped together as Dengar is a great foil! I'll edit these with links in the future... Armor: Coming from TrooperMaster Backpack: Coming from Shawn DLT-19: Hyperfirm (already owned) Holster: Darman Gloves: Tillmans gloves Pouches: Purchased from TKittel Jumpsuit (x2): Purchased from Red Kap Boots: Tandy Leather pattern WIP Belt: TBD Greeblies: TBD ?? The story so far! ?? Dyed my jumpsuit(s): ?? Going to use the second for the hood once I figure out a pattern... I'm bad at sewing and nervous about this lol! ?? Here's the gloves I'm using?? ?? I realized with a dremmel I can get the logo off... here's a couple of minutes and it's already half faded I've taken it off completely on both so far ?? So far the biggest bother is the boots... ?? Cutting the leather is already miserable... when it gets to lacing them it'll be even worse I'm betting. ?? Last but not least, I've been playing around with making a scar prosthetic for the facial stuff.?? My first attempt at making a simple mold for one, using Smooth-On brand resin and Dragon-FX Pro ?? More pictures to come... I'll probably make a second and third version of the scaring prosthetic mold.?? I figure since I already am going to have to use plenty of makeup to cover my freckles, it should be easy enough to hide a prosthetic.

Alay Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 Did a full soft parts "test"... jumpsuit still needs it's second dye job to be a weathered Tan, but the hood should be about right at least 1 Garrison Web Master | First Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment Leader Emeritus ANH Stunt Stormtrooper - Centurion | ESB Line Officer - Imperator |Dengar - Approved Heavy Weapon Trooper - Centurion| ESB Stormtrooper- Approved | Admiral Daala - Approved| Jodo Kast - Approved Link to comment

MikeR Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Wow this is exciting! Looks great so far!!I???m guessing you are rather sick of staring at the sewing machine about now...but they look great! Nice work! 1 Link to comment
Alay Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 So close I can taste it... Received my backpack All the armor weathering is done too I cut the backpack down to size: Chicago Screwed the shoulder bridges and added the green strapping under em Sized and strapped my shoulder bells Cut and attached my holster Sewed velcro to and dyed all my straps and belt and pouches...?? Might need some weathering dunno yet Finished my boots and they look extra shitty (Perfect!) And they fit nicely too!?? Just need some insoles and possibly bottoms The backpack-> chest strapping is mostly taken care of.?? Where do the split rivets go on the backpack->shoulder straps (per CRL)??? Do they even matter??? The shoulder strap is mostly for show on mine, since it has a much sturdier backpack strapping. I also saw that the thighs are supposed to have riveted strap that goes around the leg... does the rivet need to be painted??? If so I missed the boat on that one... if not I'll probably add that! Unfortunately I'm going without a butt plate... it's just too big for me.?? Talked with @rottie about getting a kids size TK one that might be workable, but for now I'm strapping the cod to the back of the belt.

Alay Posted June 12, 2018 Author Share Posted June 12, 2018 Just got the thumbs up from our lovely GMLs after reviewing the costume in person and on photos.?? I'm officially BH-20466 too! Full album here: ?? ?? I was also asked to weather up the pouches a bit more... Various spraypaints, charcoal powder, and clearcoat and they look good and screwed up ?? Ride doesn't stop there though; improvements to come.?? I want to pad up the boots a bit because after walking on them for 30 minutes they HURT and look kinda lame.?? I also need to swap a clip for a buckle on the backpack side.?? I ended up adding the rivets and strap to the thigh, though it isn't very visible... It's more accurate. Also need to talk to Walt over at WTF about a tiny children's size chestplate because my butt is too tiny for a full size one.?? I'd like to add that as the final "movie accurate" bit.?? I also need to cast half my face to do a proper prosthetic because the one I tried to freehand came out much crappier than the scarring liquid does.?? So I figure I'll scar liquid myself up, cast over that, and go from there. Last but not least... maybe get the right gun.?? The DLT-19 was only used in behind the scenes shots.
