Snowtrooper boots

I've done some work on my snowtrooper boots! This is how they turned out after I added the straps. I might redo them though, because I'm not entirely happy about the look. I don't think I'll use the inner sock, the boots look way too thick compared to the ones in the movie.

Snowtrooper codpiece

I have been working at my snowtrooper codpiece today, and I think it turned out pretty nice! It's scary to do things the screen accurate way, because on the snowtrooper that means a lot of holes, rivets, seams and other details that you never really notice in the movies. But I hope it is appreciated anyway. :)

Snowtrooper gloves and shoulder armour

Got a pair of Wells Lamont gloves from a good friend the other day! Very nice of him! They are a bit big, but they'll serve me well! Thanks a lot, Ole-W! :D


My shoulder armour, ready for weathering.


I made holes in the armour for sewing it onto the duster.

Snowtrooper handplates ready for weathering

I have drilled the holes in my snowtrooper handplates, now they are ready for weathering!

I have ordered gloves from MC, but I have no clue yet on when they will arrive. Hope they are nice, though!

Got my snowtrooper parts!

I got my snowtrooper parts a few months ago, and I forgot to blog about it!

First off, my new mukluks, a size smaller than my old ones. Traded with Ole-Wilhelm, and these fit me even better then my old ones. Just need to add the straps!


My pants, sewn from soft cotton twill. So nice to wear!


The wool fabric for my duster.


Chest and codpiece from DL.


Helmet, arm pieces, handplates, knees, shoulders and ab-plate from DL.


My backpack, almost finished with painting. Just needs a little cleanup.


Cotton strapping I found on a bag from Panduro. I just bought the bag for the strapping. Maybe I can sew pouches of it?

Going TS!

Gotta have them all!

Decided to go TS (Snowtrooper) a few weeks ago, and I got the mukluks (boots) in the mail yesterday! They are used and already weathered, so I don't have to do much except from strapping on them. I have the cotton webbing for the straps, so I'll start working on them soon!
