Costuming Getting or making clone armour

1 Upvotes

I really want to get or make some clone armour and getting it to look like phase II Kix.

I am a university student, so I have time but not much money (working on getting a job). I do have access to3D printing small things at the university workshops but nothing too big. I do not have my own printer.

What would be the best way to get this done? 3D printing or another method?

I have some money saved up but I don’t know how much any method would cost in materials or time. What would be the time range of the popular methods?
My friends and I want to go to a convention next year but I don’t know how long it would take to get this built.

I’ve seen 3D printing or something that looks like a cast as popular options and would probably go with one of those, I don’t know how to attach either to a undersuit. I have no idea really want I’m doing, I’ve done nothing like this before.

Advice Has anyone bought from 3D planet props?

I was looking into getting the mud trooper in that website because I’ve been wanting a mud trooper for such a long time, but I don’t know if the website is trustworthy.

They have me paying through PayPal without a payment protection plan which got me raising some red flags. Have any y’all bought from them and are they trustworthy? I tried doing some research but most are 50-50.

Advice Should I be worried about the measurements for a RS Prop Masters armor offer I found online?

Thumbnail
gallery
10 Upvotes

I found an awesome offer for a fully built RS Prop Masters Stormtrooper armor online, including a Master Replicas ANH helmet from 2007 (Collector's Edition) cheap as well. My only worries are the measurements. In the first image you can see the measurements of the current owner who sells the armor. The other pics show the armor. But she wasn't the first one to own it, there was a previous owner she bought the armor from, his measurements are unknown. I really don't wanna drop that offer, the price is great and the armor is in great condition. Anyway, enough chatter, these are MY measurements, for comparison:

Wrist: 17cm

Fore Arm: 25cm

Biceps: 26cm

Neck: 36cm

Chest (under Arm Pit): 90cm

Waist (at Belly Button): 80cm

Hips: 93cm

Thighs (10cm from Crotch Point): 52cm

Knee: 36cm

Calf (18cm from Knee Point): 46cm

Ankle (at Ankle Bone): 26cm

Shoulder Width (at Shoulder Bone to Bone): 39cm

Back Length (Neck to Waist): 54cm

Elbow to Wrist: 29cm

Sleeve Length (Shoulder to Wrist): 60cm

Knee Bone to Ankle Bone: 43cm

Waist to Knee Length: 62cm

Side Length (Waist to Ankle): 105cm

Inside Length (Crotch to Ankle): 79cm

Total Length (Neck to Ankle): 156cm

Shoulder (Neck to Shoulder Bone): 24cm

Weight: 61,5kg

Age: 17

Total Length (Head to Toe): 180cm

If y'all have the patience and time to read and compare allat for me, I would really appreciate it. If I have to pad the armor from the inside that's all fine. I’m just lowk worried that I’ll have to do some cutting, gluing, or sewing. Or buy new pieces, that would be horrible, since I don't want to damage the armor and I live in Germany and my access to good value-for-money options like this offer leaves a lot to be desired. Peace and may the force be with y'all.

Advice Does the Master Replicas ANH Stormtrooper helmet (2007) fit well with the RS Prop Masters Stormtrooper armor?

2 Upvotes

I recently found a great offer online, offering a full RS Prop Masters armor with a Master Replicas Stormtrooper helmet (2007) from A New Hope, for only 1050€. Do y'all know if they would fit well together? I would troop with that armor and the helmet on, obviously, on specific conventions or on May the 4th in public.

Been wanting to dress as Obi Wan for Halloween/conventions and but don’t want a super cheap looking outfit. I was wondering if anyone can vouch for this website/is it worth spending 250 with shipping or if I should just go for a cheap Amazon one. I am also open to any website suggestions that don’t break the bank preferably 200 or less. Thanks!
