Here's my pics. Shawn and I were both rushed on getting our suits done and painted. I actually prefers Shawn's take on the paint job over mine.
That said, Shae Vizla was a huge hit! Everyone loved her! It was fun walking with her and seeing peoples positive reactions. I've got some minor tweaks...
Looks like Shawn's progress is moving along very well!
I also got some work done this past weekend. Got to try out my bicep pieces, belts, cod and butt pieces on my model. Let just say I was extremely happy to see it all fitting together.

Biceps have resin detail pieces...
Here is a pic of the front and back parts that the belt will attach to. I'm not sure if these will be vacuformed pieces or made from rubber. I think it might be more comfortable for the person wearing the suit if they were flexible. The small piece in the bottom corner of the pic is for the chest.
This is kind of cool. I traded with a friend that does circuit board work.
He has made a little light board that will fit into the buckle. I created a pieces of artwork in Adobe Illustrator that will fit the buckle.
The copy is in the SW font Aurebesh. The final version will read with Shawn's...
First I want to say this project would not have gotten finished without Shawn's help. He is a amazing prop build and a hell of a nice guy! I wanted to share some of my build pics. I'm a little embarrassed because these are all over a year old. But it gives you some idea of how I went about...
I drove down and pieced up my items. I had to rent a cargo van which was around $325 + $130 in gas.
I won a battery, storage locker, Kaiju tank, 3 costumes and some other small lots.

Hello TryChick,
When I'm wearing the suit the thighs and calves are not connected.
I figured it would be just too difficult have them attach together.
