  1. Just to let you know, boots are done (pics were taked just out of the lasts, need to clean, paint and more) ----------------- Gio
  2. I just take out from the lasts the boots, please remember, I need to clean, cut threads, paint, etc. just wanted to show as a fast new: the sole use a 5mm rubber rugged surface for long lasting and dont slip danger, the sole interior thickness is made in eva for full comfort in the back go vertical strips The zipper go hided with leather or if you want can be cutted to make more accurate and show the zipper Finally a close up to show the stitched line and the surface of the side sole (1inch tall / 25mm) I need to make the finishing step and will take photo studio pics to start a sales thread Giovanni
  3. Hi there Javier, good to know you are working in fabric gaskets, may be you are working in matt fabric, personally I am looking for a shinny fabric gasket cause the armors used in the movie (not anovos) show shinny gaskets: I see shinny gaskets, and yes, I agree the gaskets must to show defined 3mm ribbing widht, jmtc
  4. May be ribbed sections with internal flaps to put inside frozen gel or frozed peas plastic bags, but not diapers I found today a shinny fabric and with the Jaeron pic will make a first try thanks for the pic!!
  5. Lets avoid the entire suit for a moment, each armor will be cutted under final user sizes, so, any gasket premade will not fit well, in that case the solution must be a plain gasket to cut and sew or glue based on each set of measures, the only idea that come to me about the entire suit to fill the empty spaces is using an air pump with inflatable portions inside the undersuit Jeroen, please help me with the ribs width size
  6. I think Jeroen was referring to the shoulder gaskets specifically
  7. You are right, in the deep is a conflict of interest, is good to talk about this and the CRL will be a reality soon to have many many ep7 troopers
  8. I am looking for info about ribs measures, if you can help me with the data will be awesome, and inside the undersuit, foam or a muscle suit can be used (at user discretion or needs) to grow the proportions.
  9. If TK trilogy boots works for basic requirements its OK for everybody, just want to remind you that I am not the only guy working in the accurated boots, there is the chinese/french fellow and the Anovos supplier as I know, there will be at least three boots sources mine included, so, there is not a conflict of interest to me
  10. I saw someone more in the forum is making the gloves, so, I can concentrate in the undersuit, this is my plan, toughts please:
  11. I hope this will help for the CRL: Boots For 501st approval: White, ankle tall enough to cover the ankle and eliminate any black undersuit visible at the ankle. Boots are lace-less with a zipper inside, no webbing or elastic portions (jodhpur or mariachi boots will not be allowed) The boots are rounded toe and have a strap that goes over the top of the foot, no stitches in the instep portion There are no markings or labels from the shoe makers. Boot soles are flat and sides soles up to 1 inch tall Boot soles are black Boots may be in leather or like leather material For Level 2: Boots are made in leather
  12. Can someone tell me the size of each rib on the gaskets? I found a shinny fabric and I want to make a undersuit with a "gasket look" in shoulders, elbows and knees
  13. Svache and Dday, thanks for the comments, I was not in Anaheim but now I know this pics are the canon to follow: and yes gloves are very different So this is the boot used in the movie, I see I am going in the right way on the boot design, remember I started with this pic: and finally a closeup of the boots: I am sure now the design is ok Gio
  14. Hi Jeroen, thanks for ask on this: time give us experience, is better if we ask an advance to start a pair and the balance at the ready to ship time, I will have leather cutted and sewed in this model to down the making time, as usual I have recurrent clients always that bought me 2 or 3 different models, about pendings, I am working or are travelling no more than 8 pairs in all the 16 different models I use to make. About Anovos I donƂĀ“t know, we have expectations on his prices and launches times, I remember they donƂĀ“t offered the kit with boots, but use my boots or a future Anovos boots launch will not make difference in the approval suit cause both are the same specs . If gloves can be find in 10-15 usd is good for all, so, I can concentrate me in other project.
  15. Thanks Toddo, is good to help for a good looking, about under parts, if I could have more pics of the gaskets used in the Anaheims trooper will be very helpful
  16. Will start a new sales thread and will let here the link, but first I want to see comments after finish the very first final pair.
  17. Thanks guys, the patterns are upgraded now to the Anaheim boots, time to cut and sew leather, by the way, this model use more leather than other boots that I use to make but the final price will be the same of my other specialized boots, I am sure the final boots will be ready to sell next week, as always I want to give 100% accuracy in my designs. In the midtime between boots and under parts I am tempted to make the gloves, in full soft leather, if you know if there is a source for them, then will not to be necessary my gloves design, I downloaded this from FB (sorry dont remember the guy that take it): Cheers
  18. A friend of mine sent me this pic, I dont know the source but looks like I have to add aleather vertical strip in the back portion:
  19. Hello, some news for the gang, I made the beta version testing based in the paparazzi pic, then the boots were revealed in Anaheim and I have to make some changes and all will be done, BTW, the undersuit project change dramatically, I saw the An...s armor was used with a standard black suit and with rugged portions in shoulders, elbows and knees, so I am concentrating my attention in finish the boots first, here some pics: Boots are high height, zipper inside, full leather and a wide central tongue All parts will go with double stitch Based in thge reference pic, I have to change the front portion, I drawed with black pen the new shape that will have the final test boot. One thing more, I will use leather and eva for full comfort, I will not use the cheap box style sole like this: I will show the eva sole process, more job but twice comfort and durability. Expect for more updates soonely Gio
  20. Wow, this pic show me I am on the rail about the Ep7 boots: I can retake the making now Cheers
  21. Yeap, buckets off, nice redaction, thanks Evan
  22. Chunky is finished I hope you like them Cheers Gio ----------
  23. Looks that both kind of heels (low and chunky) femtrooper boots could be approved on the CRL and some ladies writted me saying the Canadian chunky provider not always have stock, I decided to make a chunky under possible CRL specs, this is a long central tongue, as usual full leather and velcro to sujection inside the armor, here the chrono pics: -----------
