  1. I'm going to be reactivating this build so I can hopefully have it done for PAXAUS next year since y'know: it's a video game convention. Maybe even Celebration Japan if I end up wanting to go. Plus Melbourne is perfect weather for the 230948234 layers.

    Got back in contact with the person making my belt & greaves and they're going to get back at it now it's a priority. I'll be working on this and my Grey Jacket Doctor Aphra hopefully.

    I think the boots will just have to be thrown and get some Officer boots and just attach the leather and pocket myself because that leather was the incorrect colour, not to mention the fact that the join between the top of the foot and the ankle was made way too large so I just swim in it so when I walk it just slides right off! 0/10.

    I'll have to start looking for someone to create and then print the files for Lana's armor. There's some out there but I don't know how accurate it is. I will be absolutely trying for 501st accuracy, but honestly I just want this build to be over since it's been plaguing me for 3 years. I don't think any more Lana's have been approved in the meantime.

    Here's where we are at the moment from top of head to bottom of foot:

  2. Looking great so far. 

    For my tattoo sleeve I used an opaque biking sleeve (make sure it has no branding or seams, the one I purchased a two pack of on amazon doesn't exist anymore) in a natural colour and then my friend painted it on using references while I wore it, so it would be the correct length on me.  I have a huge tattoo on that arm so I needed more coverage than pantyhouse would give, but I know that is a popular option as well. 

     

    This was the reference we used for the tattoo itself, which I think was from the Ladies of the Legion group.

  3. What a wonderful build!

    Just to make sure the hand makeup doesn't come off, make sure to use some makeup setting spray. Will make the need to reapply a lot less and you won't transfer onto anything else.

  4. This is once again on hiatus. I'm going to shelve it and work on it when I really have the proper money and time to spend on it and have less issues with vendors.

    I'll instead be working on Peli so I can join my local RL. I'll come back to this soon hopefully.
