Hey everyone! I've been lurking and asking questions for awhile now and have come far enough where I'd share some images!

Helmet: Got this from sithcamaro (I know some have had issues but it was a very pleasant transaction) (and I didn't find out about everything till after)


Shirt is the one from amazon everyone has got

Jacket is the new eBay version


Guns are coming along! Modified Nerf blasters


Shoes are the sketchers diameter garzos

Walkman is a converted drinkman!


Buckle and patch are from Kevin Gossett


Belt is going to be remade in real leather but here is a mock up


Spats are being made now

And finally pants! I had these custom made by LuckySevens Craftworks. They're in the mail now but here are some images she sent me! (Panels are are darker gray than they appear due to lighting) (her husband is smaller than me so they will be tighter on me)

Haha thanks man! I had originally made a foam version of the helmet but sold it in favor of a resin cast. Really the only thing left is the bag but I'm waiting for a pattern since I have pretty much no idea what I'm doing there...

Just painted the patch! Not 100% happy with it but for my first attempt it'll do...

Looking good! It's crunch time. Going to be ready for the weekend? It's not looking good for me

I used a mix of contact cement and e6000. In a lot of reference pics there is no stitching. And I can't sew lol

Awesome! Good luck man! I'd suggest 4-5 oz leather. I used 6 and it's kinda stiff

Added 3m dual lock to the belt in lieu of buckle in the back

And I'll be working on wiring up the helmet in the morning
