trash can... there's plenty of great how to threads out there, just have to look around a bit.
please read the stickies, and check out the boba and jango sections as well.
Believe it or not, this entire forum will teach you to make the best armor ever.
So true; to make sure I had a good looking set of armor I started with cardboard first for test fits and a first try for paint when I paint the armor. Right now I am waiting for my sentra version. But good luck vod!!!
Trash can method can't be beat for price, and I love doing things myself, so was a double whammy of fun.
yeah the trash can way is a good way to go. you can always lay fiberglass over the top of it to add thickness also.
Just read through the threads. It may seem easier to just ask, but, in the long run, you'll learn a lot more from putting your time in. I can't stress that enough. My advice is to pick a topic ( like armor ) and either do a search, or read through the threads that have armor in the title. Then move on to another part of the costume.
Just read, read, read. and keep a notebook.
Take your time, and have fun!
Note much more to add too that! :D
But ya like they said (and yes i will repeat it again) :lol
SEARCH THE THREADS!! they will provide you with the best info you could ever need for building your own kit :thumbsup
Happy searching vod! :D
Oh and to relieve you of a common question, VOD means brother VODE means brothers :D
OR sister/sisters! Mando'a is a gender neutral language... no words to distinguish gender such as mother and father (it's just buir), or brother and sister (it's just vod).
sorry! knew i left something out! thanks Kal :D
lol no prob... walkin' talkin' mandoipedia! lol I'm pretty good about guns too!
If I know it I'll share it... If I don't, I'll admit I don't and then try to either find out for you or point you in the right direction! lol
haha i just use wookieepedia, comes in handy all the time :D
lol yeah me too... believe it or not tho I contribute to/edit a lot of that
ive done my share too :D
he he yay we're wookiepedia geeks! lol jk
be prepared to be a sanding fool when you get to your bucket vod.
Haha we should be! wookieepedia is the best :D
You should make a Mandopedia for TDH along with a Mando a' (sp ?) dictionary !
I think we have one already... and there is a mando'a dictionary... I think there's a link to it around here somewhere... I'll see what I can do
Thanks kal'ika !

yes that's the link I was looking for!!! lol I just copied it to my harddrive so I have it handy whenever I need it.
Back to the topic, I will repeat everyone else. Just do a lot of research, I've found that if you have any kind of question about armor, it's already been answered in another thread. So just take some time to look around, and there are a lot of threads about trash can armor so that's probably a good place to start. Good luck!
Good Luck Vod! Just remember, if you ever need anything im sure all of us will be willing to help! Cause i know i will :D
