Agreed!
I don't even want to try and take a stab at making my own costume. It would never turn out as nice. Great job!
Thanks million for all the comments!!
For anybody thinking of making one, I say go for it!!
Have only trooped in it once so far and it was the best yet!

Going to do a proper photoshoot soon, need to sort out some issues with the mask first!

You wont have much left after you've made my suit Dave! lol
Saw this Wookie in the flesh at Invasion Dublin, it really has to be seen to be believed! It is one of those costumes that has the 'wow' factor.
Even his walking gate looked natural, this was just like meeting Chewie himself!!!! Very inspiring. Now everyone in the garrison want's to do a Wookie.(me included!)
I didn't know Dave was suiting up so there I was having a really busy day with people queing to have their photo with me as Vader and then suddenly my crowd disappear. I look over, and they're all running towards this walking carpet that's entering the hall...:lol
Throughout the project I had said that I'd consider making more wookiee costumes, now that it's finally complete (more or less), I'm still very excited about the prospect of making more!
I will be making approx 3 to 4 full costumes and approx 10 heads over the next year or so. Ambitious??? Probably but I think it will get easier with experience plus I hope to get help from some family members.
Already have 2 people commiting to a display version, so if there is anyone out there who is genuinely interested in either a full costume or just a working mask, please drop me a PM and we can discuss prices etc! OT mask sculpt is well underway!!
