  1. awesome helmet!!! and decals, i like really the AT AT driver suit, it is so sorry to see not enough guys in conventions with this beautiful costume. i don't know why many guys don't want to wear this awesome costume from the first trilogy.

    maybe one day i will do one, it is my fourth favourite costume after SANDTROOPER, SNOWTROOPER, TIE PILOT ;)

  2. ** man, that's a sad news.

    but there will be another meeting in court case, and it is not definitly finished.

    sure at the end you will be the winner, because it is sure all the justice people must see you are the better parent for Sylvester.

    maybe your ex will let you and Sylvester more quiet after losing and losing process! i just hope this for you and your son, because she is the beginning of these bad situation...

    i hope the better, keep the head up my friend.

  3. that's all right ;)

    the best way is:

    - sand leather with 250 and after in 600.

    - prepare the leather and go away the fat with "acetone" many layers and let it dry.

    - put on really thin layer of enamel paint (like use as primer paint)

    - go for two or three enamel paint layer, i think more are there layer, much the result will be better.

    -let dry one day between each layer.

    - and yes acrilyc paint on the elastic, it will need also many layers to have it real white, it is better if you mix paint with water for begining and the last layers in full paint.

    i done like this and it work perfect.

    i don't again use my shoes with costume so i can't really said that it will resist good in time. but i think that yes, but cracke will appear it is logical and accurate^^ ;)

  4. it is a wonderfull piece of history you have in hand B)

    i can't imagine it stay in darkness so long time^^ really happy that you decide to restore it.

    it is very exciting!!
