Welcome to my Boba Fett Costume Page! A brief intro into my "habit". I love Halloween! And usually each year, in a flurry of hurried effort, I try to pull together some type of off-the-wall costume. Halloween of 2003, I came back to one of my favorite movie's of all-time, STAR WARS, and created a Tusken Raider costume. With all my searching on the internet, I discovered several helpful websites for making and building costumes. |

Where do you
start when you build a Fett costume?
First things first, you must chose your Fett...there are several choices and here is a list and some brief descriptions of each one.

I also discovered the 501st Stormtrooper Legion. I used my Tusken costume to gain entry into the 501st. After Halloween, I discovered The Dented Helmet Forum, and I knew what I wanted to make. In November of '03, I began buying a few things here and there. My first purchase was a helmet...next armor...and then it steamrolled from there. Whatever I could not buy, due to cost or availability, I created myself. My guns and jetpack are totally made from scratch. I painted every piece of my costume, and I did much of the sewing myself. |

Now, I'll go through the main areas of my
suit.
Miscellaneous

I finally had a wearable costume in June '04. My first outing as Boba Fett was at Adventure Con in Knoxville, TN. I had a blast, but being the first time in the costume and wearing it for a significant amount of time, I discovered several things that needed to be adjusted or changed. I don't think I will ever call this costume finished. It will always be a work in progress...
I received this December '04 from a very talented individual - John Trnka. John created this particular piece using a combination of graphite and charcoal. We can view more of his artwork at www.penandpixel.tv |

Here's another awesome drawing from a very talented individual, Andy Kun. Andy created this for me from a collage of photos I put together. You can see more of his artwork over at the TDH. |
