erase wrote:Tim, I think the weathering can come as he troop along and tends to have some people will be throwing some curry or some rubbish onto him... so No worries about doing weathering...

Ivan, that's true but the initial base weathering has to be done, as per the regs and the movie suit.

I spray painted my jumpsuit with 3 paint colors, Herry can do the same.

Stay safe,

Tim.

Hair and your skin is being exposed... just like Taipei Trooping...

Actually, that's a sign of improvements that need to be made...

I'm going Balacalava.

Stay safe,

Tim.

I think I recall seeing a shot of Bulloch with a bucket off shot that he had a balaclava on. Grey I believe.

That's right, I'm actually looking at Firefighting Nomex hoods in gray...

Stay safe,

Tim.

If memory serves, the balaclava was an open face version.

Man, nomex is gonna be hot. I had to wear a full nomex suit once when shooting and boy, did it roast the chestnuts.

That's affirmative Paul, the firefighter hoods are open faced down to the mouth for the respirator to be used properly.

Nomex isn't so bad...I've used the flightsuit CWU-27P and the hood before...and seings how it's just the hood, it'll be alright.

Stay safe,

Tim.

1. Weathering, you're suit looks too clean bro...the dirtier the better.
3. The Thigh Pocket Flaps, are they angled? If so, to which side? I can't seem to see it.
4. And you're missing a thong on your butt bro.

1. just done with the weathering, brown+black spray paint all over the jumpsuit

3. are the angles okay ? u can see from the above picture

4. just done it as well, but i've not taken any pictures with the thong on

anything else, Tim ? LMK, and thanks for ur input

You need some wookie doo-doo on the suit.

TD 6325 · Post by **TD 6325** » Wed Jan 02, 2008 3:24 pm

Looking even better bro...don't forget the vest as well...having an all white clean Flak Vest is just gonna make the rest of the suit look funny.

As for the rest, I'll know more once I see it in person but it looks great bro. Think you're almost ready for acceptance.

Shoot me your application once you get it filled out cool?

Thanks.

Stay safe,

Tim.

yup, i've weathered the vest and the side pouches as well. due to the camera effect, u wont be able to spot the weathering. btw, i've sent all the pictures required to ur email.

The crew member(?) who did Boba for ROTJ-SE also wore it and I remember seeing the photo in one of my SW Magazines (the Boba Fett one? Or SW Insider or SW Galaxy?).

Harry, the weatherings looks like it coming along great to my untrained eyes.
