Hey,

I just finished fitting and wrapping my boots for a Tusken Raider costume. They're still unstained but all the rest is done! Now to finish the gaffi!!

Hey very cool so to stain going to find some sand dunes to tromp through? Do you have pic's of the rest of costume those would be nice to see too or hiding till grand reveal? lol

Tubby Tusken suggested some paints that I'm gonna try to pick up this week but after that I'm working on the gaffi and accessories until a friend I have can do my robes for me (cant sew!). It was pretty much suggested that I put up pictures to show my progress so everyone knows I'm not a flake.

boots, sleeves and sash are now stained and completed; gaffi stick is a little over half done, I'll put more pics up tonight

It's always good to have pictures

Did you know that a Tusken also qualifies for Rebel Legion membership as well?

Split the off-topic thread hijack. Now back to the original topic of a costume build. Also moved to a more appropriate location.

Had a very productive day. Shane & Jerry came over to my house for a little Tusken party. With a little help form a few witches and a shaman we were able to summon the soul of Martha Stewart to possess Jerry and put him to work on the sewing machine he was able to square away the robe. while Shane and I reworked his arm wraps and gaffi stick. After we finished we let Shane loose with the spray cans. My wife made us a delightful cup tea that we splashed all over the robes, wraps,and gloves after that was said and done we through it to the ground and Shane played in the dirt. After all the hard work we put in to this I cannot believe that Shane would be so careless and get his brand new robe so dirty. Jerry and I got him back on the right track and I sent him home with lots of homework. We plan to get together in a couple of weeks to hopefully complete the bucket and take some pics for approval. Here are some pics of today's festivities.

yay nice progress! can't wait for the final

thanks for posting those rob! I should be done with my gaffi tomorrow and should have some new pics on the photobucket, which I'll link once it's updated. So yeah. Rockin. Lots of thanks to Rob and Jerry for all the help! I'll put the side by sides of my original bits up too just for laughs. ^^

new pics of my hopefully almost completed Tusken Raider costume to add to the ones Rob and Jerry took.

Looks good man!!!! I might just have to do one of these...

Thanks! Its been submitted for approval. Fingers crossed.

Great work, although I can't imagine how bad the visibility is in those helmets

Thanks for the pics from Fridays Crim event.

Looks great! Hopefully it'll be a slam-dunk approval!

Thanks syntax!

Voss - visability is poor at best lol. Im just gonna put in the walking practice. And np on the pics. I actually really enjoy doing the ncs work at events.

I have reviewed the pictures and sent you a PM with a few minor fixes. You'll also need to fill out the application on the 501st website and provide some Legion ID choices from the available numbers. I provided links to everything in the PM.

Great Job You're almost there.

Looks great. I have convinced my brother to join the Tusken ranks sometime next year. Thanks for sharing your progress.

sweet. there'll be enough peeps for a whole tusken villiage soon!
