Need some assistance for TCW Obi-wan

Post by Jay-gon Jinn »

Okay, several members here have suggested to me to do a Clone Wars version of Obi-wan Kenobi, and I'd like to give it a try! So I thought I'd ask the armor experts! Can any one help out with pointing me to someone that can make the armor parts? A few of the pieces should be fairly easy, as they will just be standard CT arms and greaves and shoes. The hard part is the chest armor.....that will need to be fabricated, and although I can whip up a lightsaber fairly quickly, I'm afraid making armor is beyond my capabilities. The chest piece needs to look like this:

I know the armor pieces in the pics look different than standard clone, but I think it would be best to use "real world" armor parts instead of stylized cartoon pieces.
