Been playing around with the galactic chastity belt, heres where it's at at this stage.....just trying to get the size right. It was too big as it was, couldn't walk comfortably, sitting down was impossible...needs to be reworked to fit me and allow simple actions like walking and sitting. I'm not the biggest guy around....this thing was just too big

On a more relevant note, your paint and weathering is looking absolutely amazing.  I'm really looking forward to seeing you with your kill stripes, vod.

Thanks vod, the weathering isn't hard to achieve...more whether I'm happy with it. Killstripes are along way off....I'm a slow worker

I got those off a guy on "the dented helmet"... ordered via his webpage
www.DeLucksDesigns.net
If you haven't checked out dented helmet, get over there and have a look, plenty of info, skilled guys



G'day all, I dyed one of the hip pouches last night....was meant to be tan, looks a little darker than tan. Have to see if it lightens after a wash or two,

After two washes

Happy with that, now to fill it out, then bit of weathering
Also on other gauntlets thinking of adding something like this

The little flamethrowery thing on the gauntlet looks cool, I definitely suggest adding it if you're on the fence about it :D

Thanks vod, All that thing is is a pencil butane torch. I'm going to add another to the other side. maybe as fenn suggested some piping out back for some hoses....may run into the top rear hose
Here's where I at with the hip pouches, still not 100% happy with them. I reckon a different shade of brown ...maybe chocolate brown

Sorry vod....got sidetracked and didn't see this last bit....,  that's all my decorations...think there's two hammerheads sharing a drink in the plant pot. The weequay is trying his best to start things off....not quite "yub  yub".... but I preferred jabbas style

Thanks mate, the red one has been given a bit of a dip in a brown dye, washed and waiting for it to dry. Then I'll work out the weathering fir them. Thought I'll use the red one and the first aid pouch, not sure about the brown...maybe some dets.
Here's c how the belt set looks at this stage, need to look at a different holster for pistol.

Bit of a test fit or girth, cod and ammo belt, needs a little tweaking to get to fit straight
