Custom Mandalorian Assasin in progress

I have given myself a year to finish this costume, I want it to be done in time for Dragoncon and Halloween 2012 so I got crackin at it ! Colors will be dark gunmetal gray and silver, a smaller backpack with a sword sheathed in it, more streamlined gauntlets with an electronic interface on the left arm, maybe sorta Predator-esque. I am thinking of doing the armor with Eva foam. I already made a blaster pistol in the style of Boba's rifle

I have also started the helmet, which instead of a rangefinder I'm making a flip down visor that will represent a thermal imager


The helmet was made from a Wizardoflight pattern
I will keep this thread updated as I make progress and I am always updating my Facebook fanpage, thanks !

The blaster was made from scratch myself btw, no kits, however I did alter an inexpensive scope from walmart for it !

Can't wait to see more of this!

I'm digging the visor, keep it up!

Digging the blaster pistol

SWEET!! To me it seems like you are trying to make your mando like predator. Nice work though.

Thanks, I am definately taking some inspiration from Predator, especially since they are both hunters. Right now I'm planning out the actuator and electronics for a motorized remote control visor using some techniques I found on this forum that people are using for their rangefinders.

Wow that blaster is cool. How'd you make it fella?
