Reyn Vok'Chi: Protector
« on: Feb 24, 2015, 08:22 PM »
hi all

Well, after much deliberation I've decided to take the plunge. Of all the brigades, I think I was destined to end up here as my original build was heavily influenced (at least in colour) by the protector scheme.
It will be a Long term project, all considered but I aim to make at least a little start this weekend.

So, the to do list!

1. 2 white coveralls to be delivered in the next few days. 1 for a base, the other to be chopped up for half sleeves, thigh and hip pouches, shin pockets and spats.
2. source material for flak
3. Boots- I'd love MOW but budget will probably dictate chelsea boots.
4. Girth- should be sorted with a bit of begging :)
5. Ammo pouches- undecided
6. All armour- sintra
7. Bucket- Master almost complete for Mold then cast
8. Gaunts- undecided
9. Weapons- I'll use my scratch built EE-3 and working on a pistol

And finally.....(drum roll)

10. Jet pack. call me insane but I'm going to have a go at a scratch build (hence the long term project) and when that goes wrong I'll give up and buy one :p

Hopefully, come the beginning of next week I'll have a concept sketch and some flight suit progress.
Wish me luck!

It's great to see some interest here!  I'm looking forward to watching your build! What style of jet pack are you going to go with? Boba or Marvel? Should be fun to build!

I made a little progress today :)

Made the hip and thigh pouches, just need to attach the thighs when the flight suit legs are tailored.
Tailored the arms and fitted the right short sleeve. I'm hoping to get the rest of the soft parts done tomorrow, including spats.
Here's some pics, ignore the girth though I will be making a new one soon.




Cheers

Love it!!!

Every time I see a protector build I want to abandon my ROTJ Fett and go straight for protector...

Gday mate, your kit is looking great, awesome work on the flight suit
Is that bucket a scratch build? Looks pretty cool, I like the "flare"

Yeah he built it himself and made a mold of it, His finished bucket is cold cast in aluminium. He also made a cold cast copper version for my partner's Kal skirata, and another for a local down his neck of the woods. I love the shallow dome and the shape of the cheeks especially, Very nice.

All pretty much done now. Got to say I'm guilty of not maintaining this thread, I forgot about it every time I updated my WIP in the main armour board. I was hoping to finish my jet pack for Celebration but work for CE3 took priority. Here's some pics of how my kit and weapons look anyway plus a little something added to my kit I was given at Celebration ;D

Cheers

Awesome kit vod, blue girth instead of purple, great job weathering the flightsuit. ESB style EE-3 nice choice, I like it over the Jedi version, I'll have to locate your other wip, and read it now
Thanks for the updates vod

I agree! I actually first saw your kit on the Mercs facebook page standing in the second row of a group picture and then hunted you down from there. I really love this kit (not just because I am biased due to it's similar look to the Fenn Shysa I'm working on ha) All the thumbs up

It's already a terrific kit, but that new patch, well, I think that takes it to an entirely new level!  ;D

Long time no post I know but I finally got round to making a new vest to accomodate the harness for my JetPack. That and the fact my my old vest seems to have shrunk anyway  :rolleyes: :laugh:.
This time time I've intergrated the neckseal into the vest and sewn in a gusset (??) at the throat area to avoid strangulation and better cover the neck/chin area. first pic is untouched and the rest are with airbrushed weathering I did today. There's sneaky new cape pic at the end too  ;)
Cheers  :D

Thank you ;D Yes, main priority is getting the new vest, jet pack and harness sorted along with a few minor tweaks so I can apply for Protector. Finally.  :)

About time!!! Sounds great though! What region are you in? At some point it would be awesome to get all approved Protectors together for a photo
