Hey guys, I'd like to show you my Jarael costume! Since I love making costumes that involve bodypaint, Jarael was a good choice! Making this costume involved sewing, working with foam and of course all the makeup stuff!
I wore the costume for the first time at Comic Con Germany a few weeks ago. Still missing are some pouches on the belt and the shockstaff, but I'm not sure when I'll be able to build those... Overall, I'm quite happy with how this turned out. I will change some minor things, but I like the look so far!
Anyway, I'm happy that I now have a comfortable costume since most of my other costumes are not comfortable AT ALL
So here's a full shot of the (almost) finished costume:
And here's a close-up:
Both pictures were taken by Harry Grees.

Hope you like it!
Greets from Germany,

I'm probably too late, but I'll still try since that book looks awesome! I'm Vicky (TK-50893) from Germany! I joined the German Garrison in October after a long time of going to conventions and events and always being fascinated by the people in the 501st. My boyfriend (also a Trooper) convinced me to ignore my doubts and fears (I have some years of experience as a cosplayer, but I never built armor like this before) and to start building a TK armor (well I helped him build it as good as I could, but still, that counts!).
And finally, at the end of May/ beginning of June, it was Legoland time again (it's our biggest event here in Germany with people from 13 different countries participating) and I could join my fellow Troopers for the first time at Legoland! And it was amazing, the kids and parents loved our costumes and everybody was so welcoming and friendly! It was not only a great opportunity to meet all my friends in and outside the Legion but also my first time on that huge stage in front of all these people. And I felt so proud, even more because I was allowed to stand in the first row that day. Nerdy little me standing there in that shiny (well not so shiny after the two days there but who cares ^^) armor and seeing the children staring at us with excitement. I could have been one of those kids a few years ago since Star Wars always was and will be a huge part of my life. When everybody started applauding, I felt so happy and when all the people on stage shouted the "who let the Troops out" I felt as a part of the huge family that is the 501st.
On the picture, I'm the blonde Trooper girl far right in the first row of Stormtroopers, just behind the Officer lady with the glasses and all the little ones!
