Havoc Squad Trooper - Star Wars: The Old Republic

[Balgosa]

I posted some pics of this during the Halloween Contest but thought I should post some officially in this thread! This is my Havoc Squad trooper from the BLUR Cinematic trailers for Star Wars: The Old Republic.

I didn't pull the plastic parts, had a guy do that for me but I did all the assembly, trimming, wiring and painting of the armor. I also built the rifle from scratch out of a combination of MDF, PVC and other nicknacks and months of dremel work. I also designed/sewed the undersuit.

Good enough to be in a movie! Great work, and photos.

Thanks! I decided to go battle damaged because I'm not a great painter and it helped cover up any blemishes I might have made from doing seamless armor LOL

Very nice ....

Havoc Squad reporting for duty! I remember you posting this for Halloween, one of my favorite suits I've seen, still is. Great job Balgosa :thumbsup

 

[Balgosa]

Thanks! It's definitely my warmest and heaviest. Tried wearing it to a troop outdoors which didn't last too long lol. Weighs in at about 40 pounds all together as well. I'm looking into ways to reduce the weight still

Haha, is that the Irvine Spectrum? Wish I'd seen ya in person.

lol its the Village across the street. I lived there at the time, infact did 90% of the crafting for the armor on my patio there. Still waiting to see if we get our deposit back LOL

Thats an amazing costume! may i ask where you got the raw armor parts or who sells them?

 

[Harvester85]

beautifully done, love the weathering and battle damage!

 

[Balgosa]

Sorry Tom for the late reply, the original pulls for the pieces were by Talon (he makes a lot of Republic Commando armor)
