Post by: Kir Ru'Kaya on Jan 05, 2023, 02:21 PM
Hello!

I have been told (over and over and over again) by Kol Hokan that I need to apply for The Protector Brigade.

So, here I am.
(https://media.tenor.com/4ssu5o9Myp8AAAAM/lilo-and-stitch-disney.gif)

I am, by no means, ready to app for the brigade. I have a small list of things I need to fix.

Fix List:
Colors - Check

Helmet - Check

Armor
 - Fix my Backplate to fit better

Gaunts - Check

Knee Armor - Check

Cape
- ho'kay'so... I'm totally willing to alter the cape to be more in line with Boba, however I would REALLY like to keep my signature wolf (yes it's real) Peez??

Kama - n/a

Flightsuit
- Check... ish? I don't have the double sleeve, but do my upper bicep armor count??

Flackvest - Check

Gloves - Need new ones obv

Waist Items - Girth should be good, but I'm totally willing to rebuild/ remake the belt and holsters (I make them anywas so it's no biggie)
Boots - Check, but I need toe spikes
Accessories
- Need Jet Pack
- have color in chest, but want lights
- Have thong, just not up the crack - have to change?
- Knee straps - tan colors elastic - check

Weapon
- That's a woodchuck Verp - Good??
- Can totally add a knife and sheath no problemo
- Need Trophies

Sigil
- left plate is currently my clan, but I can pull that and add the brigade (when I pass obviously)
- obv move clan to breast plate
- I want to add kill stripes
- thoughts on the jaing eyes? yes/no??

Weathering
- I think I got this...

And... Pictures. These are the latest, but I can retake some for clarity.

YES! So glad to see you make a WIP here!

I'm personally a huge fan of the pelt, and I know it is important to you. It might work as a trophy maybe? Though it might be too big. It'd be the Marshal's call.

For the Jaig eyes - I personally am a fan and put them on mine. Your dome looks a bit shorter than mine, so full size Rex style would probably be too big, but I could see the pre-pro style jaig eyes (where they are more on the top of the dome) looking really good!

Very excited to see you here and for another Protector build!

My initial "idea" is to mod the cape so that it hangs more like Din Djarin's around the jet pack. Or more closely like the original boba in that it's a full poncho, but the front side hangs off the left shoulder.

I DO like the concept that it's a trophy, because really it is. Does that fall with the legends trophy feel though? I honestly don't know if there is a Legends/Canon example. :/

Commenting to follow.  We have a new recruit in my clan that bought Jaster Fett's old protector kit, so we'll be working toward the protector brigade as well.
