C5 Project tease...

I had to alter some proportions due to art vs. human anatomy issues but here's tonight's progress:

And here's some quick under-the-wrist dart dealy-bobs:

I am going to add them but it looks like they are on an angled panel in the pic. I'll do a few test trials first but I might have to just put them next to the top box because it might look a bit strange in the real world.
 
My dome came today!

Next to my ugly head it looks a bit large but next to what is my (supposedly) Mystery Helmet, it looks pretty close and will work:

I'm pretty confident of my dremeling skill and I'm sure I won't break the dome.

I might do a cast of the helmet after it's built but before I paint it in case some may want one. I haven't decided, though. MWAHHH HAAHAHAHA!
 
After looking at this tonight I'm also toying with the idea of putting a 45 degree angle on the top edge that runs down the length of the gauntlet and around the back of the elbow plate. As it is now it just looks kinda strange, almost too thin and flimsy if you get what I mean. A beveled edge might help it to look more "finished" much like it does on the edges of the movie chest armor.

Yes or no?
 
Well, I've been made fun of by my friends for wanting a Fett for about 15 years but never getting off my duff to do it. This is the farthest I've ever gotten. LOL!

Yes or no?
Dont know what your getting at here?
 
It's probably just me if it looks fine to you.
I just wondered if I should angle the top edge of the elbow plate to make it look less like just a flat, boring piece.
 
It just became apparent to me that even though the gauntlets don't look exactly correct, Cam seemed to switch which arm each gauntlet went on.

Just an quick observation.
