Looking good! The license plate is another level of commitment.  |

...The license plate is another level of commitment. I call it "motivation" Master.  |

So instead of stressing over whether I'll be able to get this done before D*Con, and if Diaz will deliver my boots in time, I decided to play around with the face. Here is the first cut...   Still got some tweaking to do of course.  |

Weekend Update: I took a plaster mold of the BP today. Had to layer on the plaster, and as such I got some striation lines in the mold. I don't think they will cause much trouble though, I can sand them smooth after the casting. The weather report looks good for laying the fiberglass next Saturday. I also made the template for the bandoleer today, and drew up a bunch of sketches and notes for Mel Mattson, and adjusted the saber hilt to better represent the CG images. Tomorrow I will heat-form the sintra saber holster and box everything up to send to Mel. See ya's next week.    ~ Koda |

Here is the rough saber holster made from heat-formed sintra 3mm. It will attach to the bandoleer with two Chicago screws and have a leather strap going 'round the middle. I had to make it this morning to send to my leather crafter tomorrow so she can make the bando. It's shown here laying on the bandoleer cut-out template.    ~ Vonnor |

Very nice looking holster! But the test of any holster is how quickly you can draw the weapon from it.
