    not bad not bad. personally i'd shave down the left and right edges of the chest plates to fit your vest better, and also add some weathering. but other than that the plates seem to be cut right and the fit is good :-) kudos !

    The helmet needs some work around the visor area. The chestplate looks good but like stated before should be trimmed to fit perfectly.

    It looks too "clean" in my eyes. Not clean as in dirt, but clean as in smooth. Needs some more greeblies to help beef up the image.

    weather the whole suit and implement some lether if nothing more than a belt pouch or two. Army navy surplus would do.

    Multi Cam all the way! cept im not sure if im gonna rock my MC pants. The gun is a TM aug civi wiht the phantom kit installed. im trading it for a classic army M15a4( with a custom rail.) both are airsoft. i have all but one of the n strike nerf guns for my mando. gonna use y SERPA and TM 226 for a side arm may get some springer p226 and mod it to look more blaster like! i need an idea for knee pads. i like the classic fett style but want something a lil different. also any one know where to get gauntlets? im gonna do a custom set with retractable blades.

    I would say lose the blue. It contrasts with the rest of the bucket too much and doesnt fit in with the color scheme. Black, a darker shade of green, or maybe even tan would look pretty good on there. I agree that the armor needs to be dinged up some and needs some greeblies. You also need to paint the underside of your shoulder armor

    personally I like the way the aug looks with the rest of your suit. Since it's more of an obscure rifle then a M16 or G36 it looks more sci-fi-ish. Hey, its even used in the Star Wars Galaxies game

    the first one is with tan instead of the blue i like it cuz it works well with the MC i tried to make a MC pattern but its kinda hard to tell

    the second is with blue and just od the mc didn't look good with the blue

    the third is a wip not sure where to go with it. I will use an OD smegah for a cape on my mando. i also need help with a chest design if any one has any ideas let me know!

    Wow, thats a VERY cool blaster!!! I realy seriously love that gun! I wish I had one now.

    As mentioned above, you might think about working on your visor a bit more....The visor isn't a full one I guess? It looks like you still need to cut that part out. And mabey sand and give the visor area a touch up.

    P.S. - Han Solo is sneaking up behind you in the Falcon.

    I agree, the visor area needs to be worked on. I would recommend that you cut out the visor completely and install a nice thick visor. It's an easy modification, visors are about $15.
