I know I've been terrible at updating here, but at the same time we had to take a break from this to try and finish the Ronin Fett armor. Looking at attaching the jetpack tonight 
so definitely swing by that thread. Any ways alot has been done since the last update, mostly by my wife's hand she had been sewing the panels that hang down from her waist. Last night she was able to finish them and I was able to complete strapping for the most part, need to probably re-do some stuff so it will hold better to her body.
Here is the list of Items we where able to buy and finish in the past couple of days leading to this almost complete version.
Made Items:
Waist panels
Waist belt
Tonto blade on waist- made form MDF wood
Fo-leather Panels
Bought Items:
Red Rope for belt
Platform shoes (still need to make a foam shell for the outer layer design)
Gloves
Flight Suit- black
So here is one progress shot, I was very terrible with updating the shots but once I get back into this project and have more time on my hands I promise more to come. These are the leather panels my wife finished last night.
After that assembly of everything was put together and we test fitted everything right before midnight on May 4th what great timing!!!
Now I know given her size its not scaled to exact Vader specification, but my wife is a petite 5 foot tall lady so I'm pretty satisfied how it turned out with what I had to work with. (Evelin if you are reading this don't get mad, I love how short you are :love....)
Anyways I'm hoping once the cape is finished and we start assembling the shoes, I can capture the real essence of the Bandai Tamashii Nations Action figure.
This weekend we will be attending Anime Fan Fest in New Jersey Debuting this, If you see us come up and say high we love to geek out with other makers and Star Wars enthusiasts. And for those who don't attend, keep your eyes peeled for future updates with the cape, shoe design and assembly, and Custom Lightsaber we will be making for this.
Until next time!
