Hello everyone,
it's been quite a while since I've logged into the RPF an finally I found the courage to start a Thread for my new project!
As you can see in the title, I will be doing (or at least trying) a Veteran NCR Ranger
I've already done a Episode VI Stormtrooper an TIE Pilot, but this is my first time building a costume from scratch an working with Pepakura (I might need a LOT of help with that) so please be patient with me
I also took a lot of inspiration from Kommissar's Ranger
Allright, let's go on with the project.
I already had some fun with the mask.
It's nearly shaped to fit into the inner Liner of a M1 US helmet, but unfortunately I used normal copy paper to form the mask...
Is there any way I am able to use it anyway? Maybe supporting it with fiberglass etc.?
Second, the coat
I got this one pretty cheap...for obvious reason, but it works good for the overall worn look.
I also got some used German military boots that will work fine, too.
As it is also my first time working with EVA foam, I did some scaled testing for the Chest Armor.
The results are not too bad, considering the efford.
Here you can see my sweet little model.
Loveley this hotglue sewn coat, isn't it?
Last but not least, the gun.
I am using a peacemaker replica gun, just beacause I like the look of it....aaand I got it for my birthday.
That's all for now.
I hope, you enjoyed my perparations an, maybe, can help me with my Pep-issues.
Move along
