Excellent work and an inspired solution to boob armour.

Very cool.  I like the vest.  Without the armor attached it kind of reminds me of Naboo Royal Guard vests. 

I like that dark brown color to it.  Gives it some contrast.  So, have you decided on a color for the armor yet?

I must agree Pheonix, you've done an excellent job here. I trust your paint scheme is gonna look great.

It's not that difficult Karson. kotemandos.com has downloadable WOF templates for both Boba and Jango, print them off, get some sintra and get cutting.

[Editor's Note: kotemandos.com is no longer active.]

Takes me a day to cut and make Boba armour, a few more to do Jango style. Then all you have to do is prime and paint it.

Some great progress there Pheonix

Wow Pheonix, amazing job, very inspiring for a more feminine armor design.  *thinks of one day when I can make armor like that* Great job, definitely post pictures of the completed product :D

I really love your armor. I can't wait to see the completed costume! I hope that when I get around to making my own armor it turns out half as good.

The spine is such a fantastic touch. I am in awe of such work. It must take time to have it look so perfect. I eagarly await the finished project. Good job! *sigh* Maybe someday.....
