Hi everybody,
I would like to thank all the people interested in the project, and also to all the people that is "pushing" me, so it give me strenght to finish it. :$
As this is the first time that i do something like this, on every step that i give i learn something. Once i know what things have to be used for each kit i will be able to give a total price. Also, i still do not know if i should buy all the parts that i have bought myself from some manufacturers and include them in the kit (body, eyes, fur, ...), or if should just sell the parts that i make myself. :wacko :confused
It is not a cheap kit. Going for Fur makes it quite unique, but also more expensive. The fur, the body...probaby the most expensive parts... mines, the ones that i sculpted wil not be expensive, even though it took me a long time to make them.
With the kit, i will give some advices in order to make it easier to complete.
I bought today real leather to start with the bandolier.... i will post more pics soon
Thanks :thumbsup

Still working on it. I am trying to find a system that will allow Chewie to turn the head and move it up and down also. The body is also fully poseable...

Hope it helps

Doing hair is an artform. Look up doll hair single strand attachment if you ever want to lose you mind. One at a time is amazing but takes the patience of a... something patient. I used to take museum exhibit classes at a museum that had a 12 foot tall megalonyx jeffersonii. It was covered with cow tails! Long story short the hair can make or break a pice like this. Remember that scale of fiber and hair will effect the look. Soft, natural hairs are a great way to go. This wookie looks very cool. I can't wait to see the finished piece. Well, I can wait but I am excited.
