Bayani Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 The great thing about Texas is when hunting season comes, a plethora of boots are available everywhere. I picked these up for $49. Please don't hesitate to post your thoughts and feedback. What do yall think?
Jimah Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Try posting pics in Flickr or similar website. Then right click picture & copy properties info. Then use insert image button on these forums and paste pics properties link. That might work for you. It's how I link pics anyhow.
Jimah Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 They look like a great boot to work with... the price is right too! You are after something like this: So a repaint on the soles, perhaps a few slight adjustments on the notches in the sole and they should be a nice boot. (I was tinking round the notches off slightly, but they may not need it.)
Bayani Posted November 1, 2011 Author Posted November 1, 2011 I'll post my progress shortly. Thanks for the advice.
darren1970 Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 The sole detail looks pretty close. A good find.
Grumpy Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Not bad at all. That arch looks real good. A little use of the Dremmel here and there. Maybe round off the inside of the small notches. We're all trying to get as close to this as possible. Keep us updated. You've got a good find there!
Bayani Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 Here's my latest. I decided to square off the top of the arch like in the CGI pic. I think I'll round out the arch a bit.
Jimah Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Keen to see how these come up. And kudos to Grumpy for the screen grab... Great detail there to work from.
darren1970 Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Keep us posted mate. These are gonna look pretty accurate. 1
Death Recon Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 These are the boots I wore on tour. (The one showing the side and sole) The other pair are just an extra set I have laying around. Do you guys think the sole pattern and everything will work? I'm brand new to costuming so everything I do will be a first time for me. Any thoughts or advice would help, thanks guys
Heatshock Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 tbh allan, this is one part of the build hich is still pretty loose. modified i'd say you would probably have a gd chance. remember, as long as it looks the part! ultimate say however is dpendent on individual garrison gml's
