custom Mandolorian

Digital509 is suggesting backplate detail, anything really that breaks up the smoothness of the backplate. You may want to consider making it look like you could fit a jet pack to it but choose not to, so pipes, connectors anything sci-fi looking. Of course, if you chose to wear a cape with it then you don't need to go into much if any detail. The advantage with doing a custom is ANYTHING goes!
 
Im sry guys im a little confused i feel bad typing all these dumb questions so can u mabe show me wht ur talking about again sry for this
 
Just some detail on the back. Look at the stormtrooper backplate below. Any detail at all should be a nice addition. You don't necessarily need an explanation of what it is supposed to be. Just let your imagination go to town.

Alrighty thanks for telling me, guys ur a big help thanks a bunch im going to be asking more stuff as i go along if thats okay
 
It looks like the edges of your armor could use some smoothing out. Take some sandpaper and smooth the sharp edges so you don't cut yourself on that collar.
 
you'll probably want to look into some fiberglassing tutorial sites. fiberglassing isn't something you want to just jump into, but it's not really hard either. It's messy, and it's potentially hazardous to your health. that said, basically.. you can use a cheap disposable brush and "paint" the fiberglass resin onto the back of your armor pieces, then you can reinforce the resin with the fiberglass matt pieces. but like i said, look into some fiberglassing sites before you take that on.
 
You do NOT NEED to fiberglass your armour as sintra is more than strong enough on its own. As IceDevil pointed out, you ought to sand off the edges of your armour though, as this will make it more comfortable when you wear it.
 
oh yeah and for the flak vest. maybe copy a pattern of one of your t-shirts. dont copy the armholes, instead draw a template for it with your shoulder armor.
