MonCal Boushh research / progress
- Thread starter MonCal
- Start date
We're going for 100% (plus or minus 2%) 
It is definitely a small helmet.... but I don't think a bigger person like me should be wearing it anyway hehe.. I would look funny in this one. Fortunately my wife is exactly the same size Carrie Fisher was at the time so it's good for her We do the zam stuff too and we have the same issue with those helmets but people find a way to make them work!
Thanks for the compliments! It is exciting to finally see it started. It's always been one of my absolute favorite costumes and I didn't want to even attempt it until I knew we had as much reference as we could find... which is why it's taken me 8 years to begin
Steveo, thanks! I know.. this was a labor of love for you for a long time!
We could possibly offer one or two .. when the time comes.
Made a little more progress.. It's just starting to take some shape.

Thanks all!
Photos? I got those from a "friend" And that's only a few of them! Sorry... I can't share them any more than I am in these photos.. Come to think of it I probably shouldn't have done that even. I guess I've become the very thing I used to despise on these forums. I used to share everything and all of my discoveries but too many people started taking advantage of me and all of my hard work, taking credit for my discoveries, trying to steal my projects etc..... too bad I guess. If you're going to be around gunslingers eventually you have to start carrying a gun .. a friend once told me!
A little more progress made last night

Just discovered this recently resurrected thread. Wow, MonCal! You've accomplished a remarkable number of major finds! Thank you for sharing the information!
Looking forward now to seeing the helmet and the rest of the costume take shape. With the amount of meticulous research you've done, this is bound to be the most authentic recreation of the Boushh costume we've seen. Bravo! :love

I don't blame MonCal for keeping them to himself, after all the research he has poured into this project, he deserves the right to have the most accurate helmet available. And I'm sure his helmet will be available to us all eventually.

Thanks guys!
Thanks also RKW for posting those other pics again for those who may not have them. I've seen them before ... and they're not the same ones I have on the wall .. still awesome to see though!
Tea, thanks for those pics as well. I do believe I have those but I'm not 100% sure so thank you very much for sharing. It can't hurt to have a few more pics. I have discovered more hidden model pieces from a few pics like that
There are only a couple greeblies I haven't located that I would still like to find. One is on the strap and is also used on the Endor rebel trooper left chest. The other piece that bugs me is the "scope" / "antennae" whatever it is I'll probably have those machined if I do a handful of helmets
Jeff made a little more progress:
