    ..I have been working on re-doing my Tie Pilot costume. After reserching and building my Vader, the acuracy bug bit, and I needed to fix my Tie Pilot! I wanted to have it finished for Comic-Con ...made it! Hope you all like it!

    BEFORE:


    AFTER:

    Changes: helmet, chest box, code cylinders,comm pad, hoses, belt





    Two different chest boxes ; one with third hose, two white squares, and flipped rockers



    ..and one with two gears ( no third hose) ,one grey square,and standard rockers

    Very nice! I especially like the gloves. Custom made or actually found?

    Looks great. The fact that your new helmet has bubble lenses makes a HUGE difference imo

    Cheers

    Thanks, guys!! The hard parts are all LAWS. The bubble lenses are actually the ones from my old FX trooper lid...a perfect fit! The gloves are Damascus 650's ..great gloves, but I heard they have discontinued them!

    very nice! the old helmet didn't really have that bobble-headed look that the TIEs and AT-AT should have!
