Mandalorian Pilot- **big pics!**

I'm absolutely speechless. What honestly gets me the most is how late 70's/early 80's this look has, which a lot of custom builds don't seem to incorperate (After all, Star Wars was using parts from the 80's and before, right?). Outstanding work.
 
lonewolf_1183,

I was wondering if you intend to do a PDF file on the chest box (dimensions, etc.) and a schematic on the electronics; that you used. I think I found the, type, Mando uniform I want to do; for my custom Mando. Of course I will have to find my own way; as far as the helmet is concerned.

i was just wondering but are those legos you used near the edges of the visor?
Nope, Fett knee darts. When I'm doing a custom mando i always try to reuse some little detail piece from somewhere else in Star Wars costumes or props. Just more authentic to the original trilogy that way. ;)

Here's a few pics yanked from some people of me bringing out version 1 of this at Dragon Con this past weekend:

That is freaking sweet!!! I'm working on my own secret project "Fett" for next years ECCC in Seattle, like to see something different and unique. Cheers!!!
 
O.O WOW! this is amaizing!if i ever get lucky aenought to make something similar to that in my entire life time i'l die a happy man
 
something seems to be missing from the costume. i feel like there should be more doo-dads on your gloves; and the flight suit should be more light gray like in the concept art, that would really make the whole thing stand out. but that is a BAMF suit, just a couple little things and it would really set a new bar for custom mandos. (y)
 
This was so rush slapped together for dragon con. Of the 4 weeks before, 3 of them I was out of town for some of most of the week on business trips (two of them to just outside Atlanta- it was like work was torturing me! lol) I have material to do the grey flight suit, and the wires for the bossk-esque black wires to come down around the legs. It definitely will get a little overhaul when I have time and money. I was just trying to get it done in some fashion for dragon con.
 
ori'kandosii! The only thing I see (from a flyer's perspective) is that the air hoses are a bit small, I'd beef 'em up a bit but other than that it looks great!
 
Awesome build, from concept to final product... simply stunning!!

My only concern is the transition point between the two hose sizes at the back of the helm. I might look better to simply continue the larger diameter ribbed hose to the helm, or come up with a coupler of some sort to hide/disguise the transition point.

I also feel that it might need a black Boba style vest under the chest peice to attach the shoulder armor to. They just seem a tad odd just hanging on the flightsuit to me.
 
I agree with the hoses (see my earlier comment), but I think the vest looks fine, it keeps with the traditional star wars pilot appearance that we see in the movies. I also love the helmet markings. Very nice work all in all, I love it! I need to do one of these kits.
 
Awesome design of mando pilot !! :D
I want also build my own mando pilot :) It will be great to create Mando Pilot Squad :)

piotr: awesome concepts dude, but may I suggest you start a new thread vs. hijacking this one? That way we can keep track of your progress and offer constructive criticism/praise without overshadowing/underplaying the fine work of Mr LW
 
Hey Mandos,
Piotr's Mando pilot helmet concept look similar to a helmet that is available on the Mando Merc board. As soon an the owner emails me a photo, I'll post it here.

Nice concept.
