The Tython Project

The Tython Project was a micro-project centered around a build intended for Vancouver FanExpo

This micro-photoset is named after the Jedi homeworld, to where they retreated after the Sacking of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant during the Galactic Cold War.

The Jedi Guardian, was inspired by Master Ven Zallow.  Here, the battlemaster is encased head-to-toe in durasteel amor, mechanically enhancing is strength and endurance, while providing the protection much needed on the battlefield on the front line of the wars.  The armor was built out of nylon, EVA foam, fiberglass, and leather, with LEDs interspersed throughout the pieces.  A brown undersuit, leather boots, and heavy cotton cloak makes up the soft parts, while a rugged, battle-worn lightsaber caps off the outfit.
