My Mandalorian Costume

[deathfett]

Here is my Mandalorian suit. it took about a year and about 200 bucks to make.
the armor is made from plastic garbage cans. The sewing was done by a good friend of mine most of this was scratch built but it was a fun costume to make!
if anyone has any questions feel free to ask.

Looks cool, I like the paint scheme. I'm not all that great at identifying Fett helmets yet, what make is the helmet? Fan made? Modded retail helmet?

Correct me if I am wrong because it is sometimes hard to tell without specific angle on the helmet, but the dome looks like a modded 2 piece Jango helmet.

Am I right......do I win a prize?

 

[Cosmic Ash]

that looks like the two piece haha i can tell by the cheeks but i think i recognize your kit from the mercs forum somewhere is it approved?

[deathfett]

Looks pretty good, I especially like the trim on your kama.

A few minor minor critiques. First, I think you need to work on the spacing on your chest plates. Generally, they're supposed to be spaced apart about the width of your thumb. Most of the pictures, they're practicall touching. One photo shows them further apart, so I'm assuming that you attach them to you vest with velcro? Also, the shoulder plates seem to be hanging too low. Bring them up closer to the collar armor and that will reduced the big black gap going on there.
One other thing, you really need something around your waist between the bottom of the vest and the loincloth. Most Mandos use girth belts, ammo belts, etc.

These are MINOR nits to pick, and should be easy to correct. I do like your kit, and it's a cool paintjob. Well done, vod.
