Old Rex Build for Kashyyyk Base

[Blackthorpe (Simon T)]

Here's Rex, mostly together. The shoulder bells fell off right after I got everything on, and I don't have very good range of motion with the armor and I wasn't going to take it all off again right then. I'm still not very happy with the greaves; you can still see socks poking through sometimes. I might need tobreshape them a bit and possibly add velcro to attach them to the backs of the shoes. Belt buckle also needs to be adjusted a bit. Belt and pants need to sit a little higher, so I need to figure out how to get them to stay up. All in all, I'd call this a pretty successful test fit, even with the bugs to work out.

I thought i would be able to do sumbission photos today, but it ended up being another test fit. I am mostly happy, but the belt needs more work: the buckle pops out too much and I attached the right holster in the wrong place (but thats easy to fix, since it's velcroed to the inside of the belt). I'm also not happy with the scar. I thought I had a light colored makeup pencil, but don't, so I ended up using white pancake makeup, with a dark red outline and I just don't think it turned out well. Rex is so close!

Fingers crossed! I submitted for approval last night. Found a couple things that still need tweaks, but they are pretty minor and more for comfort than anything.

Got my approval email this morning!
