I finally fixed my girth belt fitment issues that plagued my suit for a bit now. I also got my last bit of armor done that I had kicking around for a year now. I finally got my new RKD back plate and RKD kidney plate done, fitted, and painted.

Thanks!! It was a much needed fix! My girth belt was all over the place and kept dropping low the last time I trooped a few weeks ago. Plus I like the detail of the kidney plate on the back as well. I feel it is a needed detail to complete the look of the back end.

I added another custom made Wookie braid. I fixed up my main belt some more that needed to be addressed. I got the white span section fixed to brown so it wasn't so obvious white, added real leather straps for the belt ties instead of white shoe laces. I dyed the pouches tan to offset the jumpsuit.


A few more little subtle tweaks are now done that will make a big overall difference in look and appearance to my suit.

I got my collar studs painted finally. I also took some time last night and had the kids help me with refitting my Jet Pack and getting it to sit higher, No more droopy jet pack. I hope.







I hope this encouraging others to get theirs done.
More to come....

Thanks! Man do they ever!! Most "normal" people would never notice the subtle details, but it makes for a better over all look. I got that braid by having my daughter braid it from a witch wig that I got a Walmart for $3.

Thanks!! Now I'm waiting on my MOW ROTJ gauntlets. The ones I have now are from Richie's Armor and they seem and look a bit small when I look at them in the pics especially looking at pics of what I used to have, so these will go to my boy who will be working on his Mando when he gets more parts.

I worry that MOWs right gauntlet may be too small for you. If it's an issue, PM me.

Do you mean length wise, or around the arm? I had to lengthen my currant one as I felt is was too short.

Around the arm. It's gonna be TIGHT unless his new versions are larger.

I was into this when it was only Mark Bradley and Richie's armor in the armor making game. I had almost every incarnation of his armor in the past from '00-'03.

I had some of Bradley's stuff wayyyyy back when I was young...er.  I'll never forget thinking how superior it all was to scratchbuilding. We've all come a long way since the early 2000s...

Truth!!
 All Mark Bradley armor 1999 TMP premier.


Richie's Armor armor and MB gauntlets and jet pack. 1999-2000


Yes, we have come along way, just think, this was the armor to have BITD.
That was RA's "all new" sintra armor and "new larger" cod piece!! Look at that cod piece, and I thought it looked better then my MB one. LOL!!

Mystery recast I think. Definitely sure about the recasted part. Quality was lacking. I still have 2 of them in a box somewhere. I keep them around for nostalgic purposes.
