Well, we gave MiniMandalorFett#1 a test run on his ROTJ Fett for C4. Still have a lot of work to do, but the chest armor is finished we just don't have a vest to put it on yet. And he has a functional leather ROTJ ammo belt, it's just at the leather shop right now, so he used his brother's for the pic.

Re: Kid's Armor Progress (Pic intense)
Man, that is awesome! Will they be at C4? We should figure out a way to get a shot of a bunch of the kids in costume there....
Anyway, great work!
Re: Kid's Armor Progress (Pic intense)
That's very impressive looking work so far. One question. Does he breath through his forehead? heehe.
It's never too early to learn safety, dust masks work better when covering the nose and mouth. I am glad to see he is wearing gloves and eye protection though.
Sorry I was an army medic for 8 years, I've just see too many safety related injuries. Short term and long term health are equally important to protect.

Staged pics always look more dangerous. :lol The tools are turned off when taking pics. Added safety. BTW, he is part dolphin, is there a problem with that? :lol

Re: Kid's Armor Progress (Pic intense)
Well my 10 year old will be there in costume on Saturday, if that works.
Re: Kid's Armor Progress (Pic intense)
Wow, pretty cool stuff! Did you also make the gauntlets from scratch?
Re: Kid's Armor Progress (Pic intense)
I guess we'll see what time the TDH photo ends up and the kids will have to be suited up too.
The gauntlets were bought from a member here at TDH, but I added a new whip cord housing and re-did some deatails.
Here's a preview of my other son's custom Mando:

I like the silver/chrome wheel customization, it goes with the gold. 8)
