Clothing a Star Wars Obsession: Barbie Fett: Thigh Armor
The shape of the thigh pieces is based on Jango's thigh armor. There aren't any pictures showing the exact shape of the pieces, due to the holsters and such being in the way, so I took one off of the "12-inch action figure," flattened it out enough to get the general idea of shape, and drew an approximation of that on paper. I then played with the paper shape to see how it worked on my leg before tracing it onto sintra. After cutting the thigh pieces out with one of my awesome cut-though-anything pairs of scissors from Dad, I boiled them in my dye pot and shaped them to my legs. Everything got a nice coat of Krylon maize in the end.
