Bikerscout belt

Some pics of my old bikerscout belt and how I assembled it:

I used nylon webbing for the belt, and cotton webbing for the belt box straps. The nylon belt webbing runs all the way behind the plastic, which makes it easier to quickly fix it with gaffer tape if the rivet loosens. ;)

I fastened the cotton webbing to the nylon webbing using heavy duty snaps that are also my way of fastening the thermal detonator. The two pieces of webbing are not snapped together, but rather hammered together inside the one side of the snap. The other part of the snap is on my detonator.

I used Norwegian 1 krone coins as washers. Had to cut them a bit though. They are the best washers, nice and thick, and pretty as well!

Speeder bike!

Tried a speeder bike at Celebration 5, it was really cool. Want to build one myself, but where to put it? :D

The speeder bike is made by the Belgian Garrison of the 501st Legion.

TB-8224 is approved!

My costume is now approved and ready for Celebration 5!

Soft parts done!

The soft parts are done! Flightsuit, flak vest, cummerbund and pouches, all sewn by myself. :)

New costume...again!

I have started working on a bikerscout costume, hoping to be done and approved for Celebration 5 in August. Crazy timing, I know...

I have ordered armour, helmet and boots from MonCal, and i'm making the softparts myself. The flightsuit is done, the flak vest is cut and the fabric for cummerbund, pouches and balaclava is washed, ready for cutting. Here's a few pics of what I have so far. :)




Flightsuit with suede riding patches, elastic around the tighs, mandarin collar and a hidden zipper.



Flak vest in pieces and gloves from Sith Armour.
