If I wear it it'll be a different flight suit and vest in order to fix me properly for 501st approval. As of right now 100% display.

First upgrade of 2017 begins! Cut out a whole in the right gauntlet for RKD's ever-ready lite to go in. I was really nervous but still got to touch it up with some paint!

 

[BudaFett]

Cut out both sides for redkraydragon's mini-lite to fit in the gauntlet. The button needs to pop out a bit more but I'm very happy.

More weathering and metal pieces to come!

Also installed some padding inside the helmet, nothing fancy but comfortable when I take pictures in it! ;-)

For some reason any hard hat liner wouldn't fit on my head in the helmet....

I have a big head...:angry

Those are the same pads I'm using right now too. Very comfortable and easy to adjust.

How tall is the mannequin?
