A Death Star Gunner..

Good thing about the gunner is take the helmet and chest pauldron off, slap on a black officer's cap and bingo, you have a Imperial technician.. If I had a Tie helmet and chest box I could make 3 suits out of one.

I will post pix when it is 100% finished.

Thanks. The gunner costume wase surprisingly easy to make (well for me it was) because all you need is:

Black flight suit
High black boots
Gauntlet gloves
One of the pauldrons for the chest piece (these can be gotten cheap on ebay)
Officers belt (can also be purchased on ebay)
And the hardest part is getting a helmet.

My E-11 blaster is one i made from PVC a couple of years ago.

LOL

..

Next time I take a pix with the suit I need to make sure I don't have a shirt on underneath.
With the belt it will make the suit look somewhat "skinnier" and more streamline.

Where did you get the helmet and suit from your gunner uniform?

Helmet = ebay
Flight suit & gloves = Army surplus store
Boots = Ebay
Belt = ebay
cog patches = ebay
Gun = I made out of PVC
Chest paulrdon = I had it from my TK suit

Oh and I told you guys that the belt made the suit look skinnier. Those flight suits have a lot of room.

see all you need now is 2 to 3 more gunner then someone can make a whole gun!

trooping might be a bit awkward with it though......
