  2. I also have a bunch of pictures. And... I kinda look like Sam! check this: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1195226757194320&set=picfp.100001210201122.1195226750527654&type=3&theater
  3. You are truly our Dutch Armor master! Your CO approves!
  4. And the culmination off my Journey: Meeting Sam Witwer at CEIII and giving him my signed trading card ans having him ask me for a picture! [/url]
  5. ok. so the picture has been taken. Will it be posted here?
  6. What I did, was screw them on. I drilled a hole (a little smaller then the screw) in the back of the clip. For the ornamental clips (where you would never hang a saber on, you can drill just a small hole. enough for the screw to just fit in 2-3 mm. this will be enoug to keep them in place. add a bit of glue, just to be sure. For the utilised clibs, where you do want to hang a saber on, you actually need to drill all the way true. you will need to blacken the tip of the screw eventually, to obscure it a bit. add some larger rivets, to prevent the screw to tear out the leather if you hang a saber on it. Please do not forget to wheather both the belt as the clips. it will make your outfit that much more realistic. 'brand new' is not a word known to the Starwars universe.
  7. and approved! SL-12436 Thank you for following me. See you out there!
  8. so close! only some minor (or major...depends how you look upon it) wheatering touch-ups to do In real life the tunic and pants are much more brown. to be sure, I am going to spraypaint it with even more shades of brown (which also make soem cool wheatering. win-win)
  9. and this is what I have so far assembled. still lots of details to be done
  10. small update: making the scorch marks and oil drip from the restraining bolt. little belts
  11. as we say in the Netherlands: good busy!
  12. I really like the way the 'melted' gaps above the elbow turned out to be.
  13. And now for the most scary thing: ripping up my costume. I was terrified by it. litteraly: what has been done, cannot be undone. I am not completely satisfied, but well... what has been done, cannot be undone. So deal with it! :-/
  14. some progress: made the Tunic and pants: and now I can Dye
  15. This is the single most beautiful thing ever to touch my hands. I am going to divorce my wife and marry my SaberForge monarch
  16. ok. few updates: first test fit of the tunic and pants. better then I expected. the upper tights could be a bit wider. also... I really need to install a zipper, because rough denim is not elastic at all! (what was I thinking!) also, the lower arms need to be wider. I was hardly able to put my hands through. but then again, In the end I will cut them off for the most part anyway. still the right arm will remain intact underneath the gauntlet. I did some sanding on my armor. after two layers of paint, it already looks so much better. my spraypaint container was empty, so I did not put on the final layer yet.
