THE GALACTIC SENATE

fianlly upgrading the suit!

And they say u can find ANYTHING in the Land of Thousand smiles:





A whole roll of braided leather to make a new Girth belt at only $30! Its considered i steal i guess, coz locally it would cost more then $60......

With a more accurately colour flightsuit on the way (thnks to desmond and Dan!), alot work is expected!!

yeah...it seems Jango will be out again in NO time... The last seen of Jango if I remember correctly was Exercise Blow candle, right???!!!

Good Job...can't wait for it...

True!!! Very True...for a perfect costume is not just you wore once and then is done...up today...mY sandie is still under correction...and towards...perfect...this should be the way...

Yeah, this applies for a non-armour costume like Padme's white Geonosis battle suit too... my current costume is version 2.0 and still missing the cape, so it's still not quite perfect... and if I were REALLY picky, I'd also say that the silver armbands and shinguards also need working on... plus, I could always use a new pair of white boots, 'cos somehow the leather always gets worn out quite fast... so yeah, give each of your costumes some time... in my opinion, work on one costume at a time, and get it done to a reasonably satisfactory level BEFORE you move on to something else.

Hi William, I do have to agree with the rest of the guys here to take it slow and finish one costume before you move on. This would make the third costume within a six month period that you have/gone through. I don't wish to squash your energy and drive for costuming but seeing as you had difficulties walking and your calf armour kept having to be readjusted during the yellow ribbon project event, it's far better to fix the problem areas on your EP2 Clone before you move onto some thing else.

I'm chime in here with my views. I'll be UPGRADING my existing Tusken Raider head here :



since I know that there are opportunities to ENHANCE its movie accuracy level to this ACTUAL Sandpeople head prop from SW Ep IV : A New Hope :



I'll be UPGRADING the existing 4 Head Spikes, 2 Eye Stalks and 2 Tusks "Blood Spitters" after I've receive them from a fellow Krayt Clan member.

The MORAL of the Story here like erase and JediJean has shared is that you do NOT wear your costume once and then let it go, BUT you upgrade it from time to time. Got it, redandblue?

some more progress (much thanks to Reno, who provided alot of help and tools to get it trimmed!):
