Hi guys,
I just wanted to share my Empire Strikes Back Boba Fett. It's finished for all intents and purposes...as much as a Fett project is ever really finished. I've seen some really great Fett projects here and figured I'd add mine to the forum as well. I still need to add the white weathering to the cape. The photos I've posted are with the original stripe I painted on the cape, which was too light for my liking, so I darkened it up a bit by adding another coat of the cedar paint. I added a pic of the new cape as well. It's taken me three years to get to this point but I'm happy to be here now. I was recently accepted into the 501st Legion as a member of the Bounty Hunters' Guild and the Old Line Garrison. My experience has been quite rewarding and positive. It's great to get out and put smiles on kids faces while dressed up as the baddest bounty hunter in the galaxy.
For anyone interested, here are links to my build thread and my show-off threads from TDH:

Here's a fun shot where I tried to remove some of effect of the flash and got a cool retro look.
Here are a few shots of the cape after I added a second pass with the cedar. (close-up, indoor, outdoor)
Here are some fun shots from my first troop in it. These are with my original linen cape that I no longer use (and had attached incorrectly)
Lastly, here is a photo of my Staff ID for this school year. I couldn't resist. Too bad the range finder was leaning forward in the photo, but oh well. I'll take it. Lol.
Thanks for looking. Take care!
