Thx everyone.

This project has been lots of fun and also, it is very fulfilling working in something i know my little girl will enjoy, if only for one single con due to well... Outgrowing the costume. lol.

 

:)

 

I will post some new Picts in a moment.

 

Costume is all done, and on the work bench just waiting for the dirt!!!!!

 

Saludos.

THX Everyone for your comments and nice word!!
:)

Then the time of the Con came and went...but I finished her armor just in time and in full Sandtrooper fashion!! 

I added weathering and made the final adjustmente, and even tried to add a voice amp, but didnt worked due to bad wiring... 

But we had a blast on the con... 

So finally, here she is...

She was in armor for a solid hour. LOL... considering she is 5yo and that the place was super crowded and hot, I consider it a real achievement! At the end, she asked me NOW we were both Sandtroopers and we both worked for Darth Vader, when was she ever going to wear her Princess Darth Vader Costume? Since she could not be a trooper and the boss at the same time!
I just told her she could be whoever she wanted, regardless of the costume!

 

I was a GREAT troop!

That's great work and looks like the work was well worth it give that big smile. Was thickness foam did you use?

 

Thx a lot! 

I actually don't now for sure... It was the thinnest foam they've got on the craft store. About 2 mm thick, maybe even 1mm.

Armor was quiet flexible, but also it's a bit thin. I think it would need some repairs have she wore it just one or two hours more.

 

 

Totally amazing kit she looks great I'm trying to do the same for my boy ! No pressure lol

 

 

Amazing Job!!  

 

 

She's amazing and the armor looks so cool!

 

 

 

 

Thx a lot you all for the kind words!!

 

In about 3 weeks we will be attending another Con... I guess she will be wearing it. 

I will post some pictures.

 

Saludos.
