Boba Fett is a commission for the special someone of Scrumptious Delight. He took me quite awhile to get finished- when I first drew my sketch, I thought, this will be fun and pretty simple. Boy was I wrong! Once I started breaking down all his pieces and accessories, I realized it was going to take me a lot longer to get him done than I thought.
I did have fun making him with all his bits and pieces- and I really enjoyed ripping and fraying his cloak. It's very satisfying to be able to distress something for a change and not have everything be pristine. :) Once I got Boba Fett done, I was pretty happy- and then I remembered that it's not Boba Fett without his jet-pack... so it was back to the drawing board and the sewing machine, and onto making the jet-pack. I sewed all the components together by machine, and then hand-stitched the jet-pack to his back, and voila! Finished at last.
I am very happy to have him leave my house (he was definitely beginning to overstay his welcome) and head off to new adventures in a Galaxy Far, Far, Away.
(Well, Canada, at least.)
I'm off to celebrate his departure with drinks at a certain Mos Eisley Cantina. Better leave the droids at home though. ;D

sweet!!! i know this was a commission but do you plan on doing a whole line of these?
Was thinking the same thing. You know people will want the entire line up. Darth next? :o)
Thanks guys- I hadn't really thought that far, but you have definitely given me something to think about for the future. :)
Darth Vader WOULD be pretty fun to tackle.
