Helmet is now assembled and wearable. Tomorrow night I paint the front and attach the snout and chin strap.

That's looking great! What black suit did you purchase? A racing suit or a flight suit?

I think he said he got the flight suit from cucblack.

Thanks, iRawr (Mark).

I just built my SC bucket and I'm now in the process of doing my armor. It's my first build ever and it's rather intimidating….(I'm a bit of a novice with tools as well) but I'm doing it!! :D I'm not sure if I'm going to go with a flight suit or racing suit. Feel free to offer your opinion on the matter. I'm female and I'm wondering if I should get a two piece even….IDK. Decisions…decisions. Have a great day!

Cucblack did indeed make my flight suit. It is made-to-order and fits like a dream. And the quality is outstanding. It did get caught in customs for a lot longer than I thought, but that is by no means his fault.

 

I have seen a few people do a two piece, but I am trying to be as authentic as possible.

Sorry for the lack of updates, but I have been busy trying to finish my build and work on my son's Luke costume. After many sleepless nights, we made our debut today...

I have some more things I need to work on after wearing it for a bit. But all and all I am happy with the results.

Took the armor out to the first Reno Comic Con. I was able to get the holster mounted and the blaster magnets done before I went and it worked GREAT!!!

And here is a shot of the whole family.

A few little fixes I want to work in and a couple pieces of Velcro and I will be submitting my 501st application.

My thanks to everyone that helped me out along the way!

 

And yes, I did notice that my knee pads were upside down after a few minutes of walking around. I had to find an empty part of the convention and fix it.
