So awesome man!
Many thanks for the kind words AbsoluteZero300 and vaderjeff1744!
This frame from the SWTOR Trailer again is the best picture I was able to find. I will use it as my reference; I would be pleased if you have any hints for some other pictures!
Patch 2.1: Customization... How cool is that? My son visited your homepage: Red 5 - BioWare - StarWars Trailer ... in his eyes you must be the luckiest man in this galaxy!! Your work is outstanding... May the Force be with you!Balgosa said:now the armor is in swtor so you have even more reference!
Yes, this picture/the armor is superb! I have often wondered where this picture is from. Do you know anything about that? Awesome!vaderjeff1744 said:I don't know if you already have this reference, but it's some I found while doing my research on this costume for my own build. Hope it helps! ENJOY!
It is so great that you gave this insight into the background of the picture!Balgosa said:yah its some of the original renders BLUR sent us when we were planning the CG Trailer. Unfortunately there wasn't a lot for the Acolyte (no good spin arounds or close ups) or else I'd share them
Yes, I agree! As I have no experience in wearing such an armored costume, there was just some feeling that flexibility might be relevant. Although the belly plate is relative small and unimposing, I puzzled over the part a long time. As you say:"Unfortunately the designs of some of the characters we love don't work as well in the real world as we'd like." I think after SW CEII (end of July:facepalm) the belly plate will be definitively one thing, I will have to reconstruct. I checked out the YouTube links: Plastic coating foam - that looks absolutely fantastic! I think your armor will be great!! And then we will storm that Jedi temple!vaderjeff1744 said:I would test everything out once you get the whole thing done, & make whatever adjustments are needed from there. You actually may not know how restrictive or not everything is until you've worn it at an event. That always works for me when testing out a new costume. It sometimes takes a few wearings to get the "bugs" worked out of a costume.
