Finally My Custom Mando... Odran Kor

Here you can see some pics of my progress... Almost ready for painting... I used the templates from WOF, then cardboard and fiberglassed everything... Then body filler... I have a green Flightsuit... The ears are going to be customs and the gaunlets too... More pictures soon... Stay tunned...

Looking good man, looking good!

G-Fett

Nice job so far! What colors are you going to go with?

David.

Its going to look like this (thanks Mando Maker!!!!)... The Armor its almost ready for the primer...

Alright looking good! Keep it up!

Looking like a great start! I like your color choices.

Thanks for the good words... More progress... Pictures of the gloves, the ammo belt (with 9 mm cartridges pouches!!! that I found in an army surplus), the flighsuit, and the armor and helmet with the silver primer... More pictures and more progress soon... Stay tunned...

New pics!!! First is the helmet with the T-visor zone painted and ready for in the process of masking, then the helmet masked and paint and some pics of the armor painted... Next step: battle damage paint job...

Masking Tape Out!!! Front View, Right View and Left View of the helmet... Now I am working in the weathering...

That silver looks really cool. Is it some sort of chrome?

Lookn' good

Is that a remote on the side of the helmet?

The silver paint its Krylon Aluminum. The right ear its part of the circuit board of an old Ericsson ET 237 cell phone and the left ear its part of the charger for the same phone and part of the numeric board of an old Nokia 2110 cell phone...

The Helmet is Ready!!!! Two Pictures... You can notice the mirror T-Visor... In the second picture you will notice the battle damage paint job... Now it's time for the battle damage for the armor...

Awesome tinted visor! Helmet is looking good man.

I love the visor...looking good!

Nice idea for the chrome visor!

It's nice to see other Mandos with different visors, but now I'm not the only one with chrome. *joke*

Seriously, your armor is shaping up raelly well!

Hola Leo, espectacular tu customs y tu arte, we are in contact my friend!!!!

Leo

looks sweet

Happy Birthday Odran Kor!!!!!, Feliz cumpleaños Odran Kor!!!!!!

what did you use for the visor? I attempted to use plexi but it cracked

The visor its made from the replacement of a hard hat safety faceshield. That kind of faceshield its made of polycarbonate. It can be cut with scissors. The only kind I found was transparent but they are made in polarized polycarbonte. I used two layers of a silver polarized film. This kind of film has one sticky surface that helps when you attaching the film to the visor.

Gracias por el saludo de Cumpleaños Boba Leo y TDH!!! Thanks for the Birthday Greetings Boba Leo and TDH!!!

The Vest it's almost ready. The only thing left it's the shoulders of the Vest, and the velcro for the Armor. Here are some pics of my custom and how it looks right now. In the last pic I look like Obi-Wan in Mando Armor...

Another update in a little more than 12 hours. Here are a few pics of the Back Armor, the Cod Piece and a 360 view of the helmet and the Rangefinder...

More updates!!! The Cod Piece it's ready. The Back Armor it's ready for weathering. I attached the velcro to the Vest and the Front Armor plates...

Talk about fast moving... looks good vod!

More updates... The Vest with velcro (I need to put more). And the first pic with the armor plates attached!!!! Sorry for the bad cell phone photos. I need to make a few adjustments in the Vest and the Plates position, add the Shoulders and the Leg Armor it's almost ready. Just a few things to get ready for a Convention thats going to take place in less than 10 days!!!!

I like your armor and the vest a lot, congratulations friend!!!!!!!!!!Muy bueno amigo
A question, Do you have made the vest?

Yes a made the Vest... Almost... I made the desing and left all the cutting and the sewing to my mother and my grandmother... I tried to make a Vest that resembles the one from Jango and Boba, and I'd spent 40 pesos (aprox 12 dollars) in the leather/fabric. Gracias Boba Leo. Por cierto, voy a tratar de tenerlo listo para Animate '08. Asi que si vas quizas me veas.

Looking Good!

Nice work! I really like the color choices!

After many months of hard work my custom mando it's ready!!! I still need to work in the attachment of the backplate armor (I didn't used yet, the back it's covered by the cape) and the attachment for the codpiece. I'm going to make a new set of gaunlets and knee armor (more accurate ones, using the plans from WOF and Skip), attach the armor with the screws (right now it has velcro) and maybe (in a near future) I will be adding a jet pack... For now, this is how it looks... In the pics you will see 2 leg armor configurations. The first it's the basic Jango armor without the knee armor... The second one it's similar, but it had a SWAT like knee armor and a more light shin armor... In one of the pics I'm entering the TDH forum, in armor, hehehe... In other pics I'm drinking mate (a popular infusion similar to the tea, here in Argentina) and in the last ones I'm becoming the Spider-Mando... hehehehe... Enjoy!!!

Congratulations friend, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday (21,22 and 23) of November in Buenos Aires - Argentina, was carried out a convecion of Anime and I could know my friend Adran Kor, its work is really very good and Leonardo its true name is a very good person.

Leo friend again congratulations for their work :thumbupand I hope to see you soon, a strong hug.

Leo

It was amazing to meet another TDH member, Boba Leo. I enjoyed to be equal with a Clonetrooper. I'll be waiting for another convention so we can troop together again. I had a great time. I posted a few pics here:

By the way, I think I meet you last year in Animate 07...

Very good job bro, one day I put my pictures in the forum here also.



Muito bom trabalho mano, um dia eu posto as minhas fotos aqui no forum também.

Nice pics buddy!! Good to hear you had a great time!

New updates... I'm adding a few pics of a photo-shoot I took a month ago... My Mando at Night at my garden... Enjoy...

Great job! If I may make a small suggestion, have you thought about a neck seal or a balaclava?

Again, WOOT, bro!

David.

Yes... I now about the neck seal... I must search the army surplus store and try to find something... I bought a sky mask that is olive green and it goes perfect with the flightsuit... But it's very hot for this days (we' re in middle of the summer in Argentina) ...

New pics of the helmet and armor... Since I'm an Official Member of the Mandalorian Mercs I painted the Jaig Eyes on the helmet... I added the Mythosaur Skull to the chest and the Mercs Skull to the Right shoulder... Enjoy them...

Very very nice decals. Those eyes look scary! =)

Looks good vod!!! I'm liking the eyes...might need to add some to my bucket...

Nice armor man, i love the color scheme

A few upgrades for my gauntlets... Since they were based on a shin protections, I thought they needed a few upgrades. I bought two toy disc launchers - Pic.1 - (that looks like Jango's gauntlets but I can't find them on the web) and using parts of them, old cell phones and a mouse I made these... Pic 2 to 6 - Left Gauntlet - Pic 7 to 11 - Right Gauntlet... Weathered pics will come later... Enjoy...

I love the mirrored visor! Definently is meaner than a standard tinted one.

Thanks for the coments... My original idea was using a normal visor, but when I saw the mirrored film I couldn't resist... And now to the pics of the gauntlets with battle damage... Some are a little out of focus... Sorry..
Pic. 1-4, Left Gauntlet, 5-8 Right Gauntlet...

Hola amigo oye una preguntota yo necesito un filme polarizado como el tuyo para el visor, donde lo puedo conseguir?? estoy muriendo por conseguir uno gracias!!

El film lo consegui en un local que vende equipos de refrigeracion, aca en Buenos Aires... Deberias buscarlo tambien en los lugares qe polarizan vidrios de automobiles...

Gauntlets are cool, nice vest too, that gives me some ideas for my Mando.

I keep on stumbling over your armor,all the time,no matter how many times I browse trough custom mandos,but your armor never gets old man XD Its just too epic !

Thanks Vod!!!! I'm constantly making upgrades to my armor... I upgraded the leg armor, I'm starting to work on a jetpack, my next step it's to upgrade the shin armor... Meanwhile I'm working in a new set and making an armor for my girlfriend...
