The funny thing is, I LOVE Bossk! I actually have a bag of supplies and fabric to build a Bossk in my attic that I just never got around to doing. I figured I was too tall to do him right and decided to go with my first love, Chewie.
Bossk is by far my favorite bounty hunter, way ahead of Boba Fett in my book (Although I love them both). Bossk is like the Nightcrawler to Fett's Wolverine... the guy who is actually cooler and over shadowed by the obvious fan favorite.

So, what does Wookie taste like? :lol Great costume, almost too realistic.
According to Bossk, "Wookie tazte like Chikin".
Thanks Guri. If you haven't seen it, there is a thread about three pages back now that goes into all the details of how my Bossk was created. You might like the Draconian I did too, which won the Best Fantasy Character award at the last Dragon-Con. (I have a soft spot for reptilian characters).
Your White Witch is fantastic, and a great addition to this snow-themed thread. Thanks for posting!

Great bossk, but just curious, what's up with your Avatar? :lol

Most 'Bossks' are just "a guy wearing a mask and a yellow cotton coverall". This photo was used as an Avatar to indicate that a realistic Bossk would have a green scaly body as well. It also illustrates how a real, impermeable, insulated, high altitude flight suit, (like the Windak RAF suit that the Bossk character wears in the films), would really open, and why Bossk's suit has the black rubber collar-planchard, unlike the usual yellow cotton coverall that zips or buttons down the front, like the typical 'Bossk' wears (over which is a stylish black vest, as the real rubber collar-planchard is typically misunderstood by most Bossk costumers).
No sexual inuendo is implied, if that is your question. In our society male chests are never censored, and this is a fake rubber chest, much like the mask. Actually, I had intended to stage a funny photo of some attractive 'Star Warsy' human female (like Princess Leia) carressing Bossk's chest in his opened flight suit, but didn't have the opportunity yet. Your 'laughing' emotican does suggest you thought the Avatar was funny, and this was intended as well. Building and wearing sci fi and fantasy costumes should not be taken too seriously, despite the striving for realism and authenticity.
But now I am curious too. Does this photo 'bother' anyone? And why?
Hahahaha....sounds like an update on the old saying....if the shoe fits..... :lol

Oh it dosn't bother me. I'm gonna be honest in that when I first glanced at it (I'm not trying to get weird here!) that it looked liked some kind of female chest on the bossk! Just the angle I guess, and that's why I asked :lol
No offense intended. I understand what you mean though about the suit and how it opens.

I'm working on a Wampa suit for trooping, and hoping to get it finished up in time for a snow photo shoot. Likely going to have to go up to the mountains though, being that I'm in the Pacific Northwest - one of the few northern areas not getting snow.
These are awesome pics, especially Duck's Chewbacca. Very nice suit!

Awesome snow scenes guys (and gals).
So how are these costumes in the freezing cold? Chewie seems like he'd be okay with all that hair.

Both my Galactic Marine and my Snowie fit loose enough that I'm able to fit other layers under them if I know I'm going to be outside. The issue usually is that once you get fancy and start taking pictures laying down in the snow you get snow everywhere. The stuff is just like sand and gets up underneath the armor and stays there until it melts. So that's what gets you all wet and then eventually cold.

Great idea! :lol I couldn't help it...
OMG! that's awesome! do you mind if we use it?
my tusken is 3-4 layers of fabric so I'm always hot in it. Karen is actually in her V1 jawa that was a heavy fabric and she always got overheated (thus I made V2) so even in the cold we were ready to get out of 'em by the time we were done.

While it may not be a scene from a movie, I could not miss the chance to snag this shot when it started snowing at a con yesterday. Crawling in and out of the snow bank was a lot of fun :lol
