CROW62 Posted August 6, 2011 Author Share Posted August 6, 2011 Real Life take me away for a while, I am back, 3 weeks ago, my son has a rhinoplasthy procedure, after the intervention, he came back to Guayaquil but the high temp weather caused the tissues don`t heal well, so, he and I has to stay all this time in Quito, a better wheater and low temp, all tisuues heal and both back to our cities. As some of you know, all this was possible because my copyshop is now under a contracted manager, this give me more time to make your boots and in this case I was in Quito taking care of my son, so tge good new is I have now more time for the leather skills. About the factory soles, I taked the casts made by Marcelo (thanks a lot bro), they tried make the molds, first step filling with resin and then to make the aluminium moulds, but sadly the casts don´t worked well, they can use the casts only to make "flat" soles that I will use to make RC´s clone boots. Here a Pic: So, the factory modeller told me the ideal and best results are scaling all the size starting from a big number of a real boot, not a cast, then he will make the moulds (300 usd each size), the advantage of have own moulds is I can order ANY qtty: one, six, ten, etc. of any number, terrific good new, I was afraid because they normally using his moulds ask a 144 units minim by size. Now, this is what we need to make the goal, a Kenneth Cole pair, size 13 or 14uk to take to the factory, 8 days later I will return that pair to his owner and in the same way in the first cast, the soles and leather portion will be well care, I am ready to pay the shipping costs and the first kashyyyk boots that I will make will go for the volunteer for free. My boots are now showed in the 501st CRL´s, look down at the boots and then click in the boot image: http://www.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TC_CW-animated_grunt You can read my feedbacks in my webpage: http://www.crow62prophouse.com/testimonials.html Giovanni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CROW62 Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 OK, I came today from the soles factory each mold will cost me 1200usd, I need 4 molds that will cover from 7US to 14US. I worked months ago with the soles factory and they made to me this low height sole (from the silicone molds) that I use in the Republic Commando boots: The upper section is ready, here a pic (this is a request from a MandoMerc in white but with Republic Commando sole): The Jango Boots will go as the original Kenneth Cole Pitt Crew pattern colors: As you can see I am almost ready to start the production, I will publish the making of a First RUN, with 4 round number sizes (one for each mold) the first dozen reached and I will start that number series, in that moment the members of that dozen will make the payment not before, all profit will return to make the next mold based in the second reached dozens and same again to reach the 4 molds. PRICES: I am not going to take in count the molds costs, only the soles costs added to the other inversions in this model boot, my clone boot live style have a 165ud cost shipped and in this model I have to add the soles cost (more than 2,5 pounds in big sizes), final price 199usd shipped worlwide, estimated time for delivery: a month from the dozen reached. Thread will be uploaded tomorrow here, in TDH and CTN (for kashyyyk and GM will go in Tan) The updated list will be showed here of course and in a document in my FB group:http://www.facebook....08653819216581/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
