Title says it all. I'm looking to do a budget X-wing pilot costume and was wondering if anyone out there could help me. I'm trying to keep everything under $100 bucks. Most of what I'd like to go with the costume will be 3D printed, like the chest box.
Jumpsuit: I've solved the base costume problem. I'm looking at an Orange aviator jumpsuit on Amazon for $47.99(sadly, it's not eligible for Amazon Prime, oh well). They used black ones for the TIE pilots and scout troopers, so I figured an orange one for an x-wing pilot would work.
Flak Vest: I was wondering if anyone had a pattern for the Flak vest. If someone has a pattern and can send me a download link, that would be great.
Chest Box: I'm in the process of building a 3D Printer. If someone could provide me with an .stl of the chest box, or point me to some place that has a downloadable .stl file, that would be great.
Helmet: This is going to be the hard part. Has anyone attempted to 3D print an X-Wing pilot helmet. If you have please let me know.
Gloves: Any alternative suggestions for the gloves? I'm not really crazy about the ones they had in the movie.
Belt and holster: This one I'm gonna have to play by ear. I spoke to Crazylegsmurphy on his thread. He's in the process of making patterns for Han's blaster holster and belt. I'm keeping an eye on this. I'll most likely make it out of cloth rather than leather to keep costs low.
Props: I'm planning to have a blaster and some other props to go with the costume and was wondering if someone could point me to an ANH DL-44 Blaster Pistol .stl file if one exists. I'm also looking at including the scanning device used by Rookie One in Star Wars: Rebel Assault 2. Has anyone attempted to replicate that prop.
Again, any help could be appreciated.
I suck at Pepakura.
