70th Explorers Garrison's Own Vader

Post by judge_hellfast »

TEASER PIC ONLY This is a ROTJ Vader. I have been working my tail off on this Vader gear. I will be recieving my body suit and cod this week. I also will be recieving my lightsaber and belt boxes in the very near future. I have started the process of working on my under robe and cape and should have those finished up very soon. My electronics for sound will be a snap to put together as I have all the parts I need. I should have it all finished up in no time at all. What do you think so far???

I don't know if I can make that time frame which is a total bummer. I needed about two more weeks. :cry:

I recieved a couple of more items this morning. I doctored the cape in the photo so I could see how it would look on me. I'm going to pick up my fabric today and will start sewing on my cape and under robe this weekend. All I need are my doggone belt boxes, saber and breathing sound and I will be good to go for a basic Vader. I would really be pushing it for any events coming up soon. :wink:

That is looking good! I hope you know that you are going to have a lot of people begging you to come to events! The lone Vader, how exciting.

Keep us posted on your progress!

Electronic Belt is on its way and I am in the process of finishing my inner robe and cape. Everything else is good to go. I should be able to finish up in the next couple of weeks. I have been keeping a watchful eye on the sith lord forum in order to keep my gear as accurate as I can for costume requirements.

Not too much longer and my journey to the dark side will be complete.

After this, I will be moving back to my other projects and finishing those up as well. YEAH!!!!

Chris...

We are going to have to discuss your membership if you get this finished... I can't have someone else with the coolest costume in the Garrison...

Sigh... it was a good run.

What I don't get is why Chris is going to finish up any other projects if he is going to be Vader. All you need is Vader! :P Wait, does that mean I'll have to start calling him "Dad"? :lol:
