Don Vito approached me late last year about this build and has been working on his idea since then. He has now asked me to take charge of it and build him the suit,

The idea is a P1 styled Hippie build, no armour, Leather gaunts, pretty much back to basic pred.. I have already started with some ideas on the Gaunts to have some metal work on them to decorate and also some glyphs etc,

its gonna be a cool suit to do, my kinda suit if i'm honest.. rough and ready.. keep an eye on pics and updates over the coming weeks


looking forward to this one thanks for the opportunity Callum
 
parts have all been ordered..

Termokks P1 head, dreads and neck ring..
Mannowar, skins, wolf shins, P1 hands and Feet,
Leather for the Gaunts, and lion cloth, but flap..

Beads will be coming soon..
 
so parts have started to arrive
a few pics of them.. i'll have more as this progresses. I've started to rough trim some of these..

Been a long time since I updated on this one, well the suit is finished and being delivered over to Don Vito This Saturday, so completed pics will come on the back of that. In the interim here are some WIP pics of the suit as it was being put together.

So the suit is done and with its new owner, was great to meet Callum and get him suited up, He was over the moon with his new suit, which makes me happy.. as a suit builder, its always a worry when you do something for someone that they are going to be happy..

so on with the pics... (one thing to bear in mind, there are no gaunts on in the images, like a dumb ass i left them at home, but happy to say they are in transit via post to him )

There are some final adjustments to me made, Callum will be doing that, some foam filling.. i left him a big piece to play with so he's happy. and just some general fitting adjustments..

I wanted to take more pics but the damn iphone decided to play up.. so the next set of pics will be when this suit makes an appearance at Dragon Con.
 
nice one colm, great work.

looks great seeing builds like this come together, they're always great and look incredible when its all put together.
