Captain Phasma

a long time ago i started the building of my new costume, captain phasma.
having almost the same height (gwendoline christie is 6"3, i am 6"4), this costume will look good on me in the end!
a girl working for ubisoft had a phasma helmet, so i immediately said "i´ll take it". but she wanted to do her own costume.
two months later she stopped her plans to realize this and gave me a call. the price was good and the owner changed!
then for a long time i did nothing.

some months ago i started to build the very first parts in aluminum. the hand cover and some finger ring elements looking very similar to the ones from phasma / c3po.
cheap black gloves were bought.
then again a stop.

now i continued on it. a friend of mine has the possibility to paint the helmet with a silver nitrate system to get the chrome look. i saw some youtube videos about it and i can say it´s really impressive!!
my part before this is to prepare it. so sanding, adding a filler coat, sanding, sanding and sanding is on my to do list the next days.

three weeks ago i ordered a neck seal, the same as the stormtrooper version. last week i got it fom england. very good quality and price.

the phasma blaster (3d printed parts) is ordered in the netherlands. i think it will arrive after xmas.

now i have to look for some shoes. hope to find a very similar to the (expensive) trooper shoes on the internet.

more certainly in the next weeks!
