Looking great dude.  Good catch on the on off symbols.  You can probably stencil or lightly brush on some Mando'a or Aurebesh on there.

Riding a wave of enthusiasm at the moment, waiting on a few pieces to come in, assembling bits to see where I’m at, finding what I need

Agreed, allot of people miss the subtle points of the accessories and soft parts, its all about going that little extra.

Also agree that the leg strap needs tightening, but remember to give a couple of fingers under it for slack or the leather will stretch over time ;)

And of course WEATHERING, but then you have that pretty much down , so should be breeze for you   ;D

For the duel blasters question there is a protector called Fenn Shysa that has Jango like twin blasters, so there is justification for it  ;)
Second on lower back would be a Marshal call, not seen one stowed like that in references

Really great job, dude!

Your soft part test is REALLY on point. I especially enjoy the weathering around the ankles. I recently washed my flightsuit and I need to re-weather it so I'll be taking a page out of your book for sure.

As inconsistent as the references are, I would shy away from having a blaster on your lower back and stick with the drop holster or just a belt style holster almost like the Nemrod holster on ESB Boba. Speaking from my experience, you're already going to have a lot of stuff going on back there and I can't even reach that far back with my kit stuff on to begin with!  :laugh:

Thanks mate, I'm currently watching Return of the Jedi, next up is close encounters of the third kind....🤔 I wonder if I can replicate the flashing light sequence at the end. Just in case, I may be wandering around the bush at night in my kit, bit of luck I might run into a UFO offering me a ride, and if so I hope it's to a galaxy far far away, and not a intergalactic enema 😳

Thanks mate, tomorrow hopefully I'll cut the slots in the left chest plate, attach chest lights and put on for a plate placement test

Love those plates.

Worst part for me was cutting into the chest plate to make the chest display holes.

Are you going to fit a tinted window between the plate and the chest lights?
