AOTC -Zam Wesell at your service (almost)

[pinkwesell]

Hello all!

After receiving a notification, that I haven't been around the boards for awhile, erhm, ages, I thought this might be a good opening. :behave

I bet there are lots of people I already know from various circles, so for some this is only a repeat. But as I have lost my mojo and still need to finish off this nightmare in purple, so to give a booster for myself it may be a good to show off here too.

So, I've started this ambitious project four years ago. Did my research, spent months in reading all possible topics in TDH and learnt a lot from talented prop makers. However, finances on the top, has been slowing my project to get completed and this year has been difficult in personal life.

Anyway, here's, what I've got so far:

Zam's blaster, made to measure for me, by a friend of mine

First set of greeblies, although I have re-scaled them, so should take new pic. Brooch in the middle is a gift from a friend. It may be MonCal's work?

Two pairs of Prada boots waiting for make-over, of which I'm using the bigger size.

Vest - sescond hand leather jacket before and after

This vest was more like a test and trial. I need a new one and this certainly has helped to create another, better vest. so wip there too.

will drop the rest of the stuff later...

Good luck. It's a very tough costume to finish.

Thanks. Yes, I know. It has been great challenge.
Fantastic Zam, btw. I remember your posts in TDH. How long it took to complete?

For those, who are not fans of Star Wars, here's Zam and her gorgeous costume:

You might like those pics. Not too much to see but they work as inspiration while working on a costume. Good luck with yours.

Thanks, I've seen those many of times.
They are good for details.

and little bit more:
...beads

pepakura base helmet. This one is too big and I've done smaller, but same thing anyway, just needs to take pics. This file has been good for making helmet more customized for my own head. I remember from TDH other Zammers have had issues with the size.

Now I need resin and fibre glass... :unsure

 

[pinkwesell]

I've got some suede, some leather and some gloves, that has been dyed already

and neoprene, of course. I don't like the colour, so I might do something (update) once I have finished the first round.

 

[TrooperJasher]

looking good

 

[jadedskies]

You're off to a nice start! Love your greeblies~

May I ask where you found the neoprene? I am still looking for this part myself.

She hasn't been online for almost six years. Maybe you should take a look at the 501st or rebel legion roster and seek out Zam costumers for answers.
