Greetings all, Evan1701 here from gorgeous Southwest Virginia: TR/TA/SL-81989 from Serenno Squad, Garrison Tyranus. Honestly, I don't have a ton to report yet as this will be a project that spans well into next year and potentially beyond, but here we go. I also have a WIP thread going on over at the Garrison Tyranus forums.
Honestly, my biggest worry at this point is painting. I have almost no experience with painting, and most of that experience is sub-par paint jobs on my wife's Bo Katan kit. At this point I plan on doing it myself to save on cash, so we'll see how that turns out. Stay tuned for the Spring 2018 updates where Evan has to sand his helmet down 3 times because he screwed up!
HARD PARTS:
Helmet: DVH
Armor: RKD
Jetpack: DVH (ordered, awaiting delivery)
Jetpack harness: Bigdane/HHprops

Gauntlets: MoW
SOFT PARTS:
Gloves: MoW
Shoes: MoW (ordered, awaiting delivery)
Flight suit: Arkady
Flak vest: Arkady
Neck seal: Arkady
Ammo belt: delta13mike
Girth belt: Not sure (secondhand)
Hip pouches: Arkady
Sidearm holster: Stormrider
Cape: MoW
Braids: Woodman
MISC:
Chest lights: Hotpockets
Pulce 40 Sidearm: Stormrider

Shoe spikes: Machine craft replicas (Dakota) (ordered, awaiting delivery)

Since you guys are the absolute expert, and I've only put about 40 hours into my research so far (been pretty bored at work), I'll take absolutely every bit of advice y'all can give me.
As for the soft parts, someone in my Garrison got a bunch of soft parts for an ESB Boba he never finished, so he's willing to sell off the stuff he's had sitting for several years. That will be a good cost savings. I'm trying to stay "relatively" budget. I know with Boba it's extremely difficult, but I'm motivated to do as much as possible myself to accomplish that!
