u can have other things added to ur gaunts... I think a small, side mounted blaster like that would work just fine, just mount it to the side. Assume that the spikes are in the 6 O'clock position, mount the blaster in the 3 O'Clock on the left arm or the 9 O'Clock on the right arm. Just a suggestion.

Lol. Ok thanks for the sudgesstions. Lol ok levi u do what u want. O yea I put that horn there cuz it looked cool! Plus if you look close enough at the custom skull I made, you can see that the skull is on my helmet, just split in half and has no eyes! Lol. ANd that little goatee spike wasn't there.. Well I didn't actually have a goatee a while ago so I thought i'd stick it on the helmet to make it seem more a like a face, I guess. lol
The spikes on the gaunts are in the.... 6 o'clock position, if you put your hand flat against your leg then yea its the 6... I would put the gun on my gaunts but it would seem weird to me to have something all around the gaunt, I don't want it to be too crowded. It is a sniper/tracker mando so he isnt a big bulky heavy mando, he has to be like ninja so thats why some things are so sleek on the costume.

One of my best pieces if I say so myself! lol Yeah Nevu I get the light weight/sleek design. My mando is intended to be a scout/ALO (AFSOC model) while the other is a CQB expert (SAS model) There's a definate difference in the amount of armor and excess kit they can carry, one thing I haven't changed tho is the gaunts. Both have the heavy duty tri-shot and pred blades on the left gaunt, with a flashlight. Both are probably going to have the Dart and microrocket launchers on the Right gaunt along with a tactical display suite... which I have yet to finish designing.

I NEED HELP!!! Ok right now im trying to buy a t-visor but the measurments are so confusing and my bucket is actually kinda small... So im looking at t-visor.com right now. The dark standard visor i think will be to small. If i understand the measurements right my bucket needs/has this much room..... 11" (thats it the top part of the visor going from left to right) by 6" (that is the length going from top of visor to bottom). but some of them are giving me the thickness. But I need to know how wide they are, like in the | part of the T. Mine can fit/needs 3 1/2". Which one should I get?
I cant order a regular weilding visor because I have neither the time money or skill to cut that and tint it correctly.. AHH HELP!!!!

thanks for the advice A'den. But 2 things.
1. So not tinting is required?
2. Is the dark green one, really actually green?\
ok wait I thought of a 3rd...
3. Uhhh which shade is darker? shade 3 or 5? i don't want people to be able to see my face, at all. But still be able to see out of it.
Thanks a'den

wait...I dont get question 1...:confused lol
Shade 5 is darker than shade 3, and the green one is actually what I have in my helmet (not the same make, but it was called a dark green visor). If you look at the tab from the link I posted, these are advertised as Fett visors.
I think I got it all...
:cheers

also, if you scroll down there is a wonderful little note telling you EXACTLY which one for Boba Fett.... Seriously, there is one that says:
*Dark Green Faceshield Used in making Boba Fett Costume
as seen at http://www.tk409.com/fett.html
I thought that was funny

O, lol thanks guys! And forget about question 1, wait a sec, would it come to me as flat or already in the right shape? Like will I have to buy a heat gun and shape it? Hope not, I don't have any money for a heat gun:cry

Alright!! Ok sweet i'm litteraly ordering that visor right now lol now i just have to finish painting it before it gets here.
Got some work done on the armor. In the first stage of weathering, I painted a couple of coats of silver. Tomorrow I will do that top coats of the finaly color and use the toothpaste as masking.
Now that I think about it.. I still have some sanding to do on the helm.. haar'chak. Ok what can u recomend as a good THICK primer. The material I used to build the helmet kinda had a hard checkerboard feeling to it? I need a thick primer that will fill that in so I don't have to put anything over it. my materials are low and money is low too. and just incase you skim this message.... WHAT IS A THICK PRIMER I CAN USE?!?
@adonian, you got the colors right, though on my leg armor that red strip isnt there. its just blue and black. but thats ok, actually it gives me an idea....
ok lol thanks all. yea just answer that one question about the primer plz

Maybe Adonian knows...
Nevu yells "Adonian get over here!!! Just make sure you leave the whip at home!!"

it's called 'filler primer', it is a little thicker than regular... I would use krylon fusion first to get a good stick, and I know someone is gonna yell at me, but while it's still wet hit it with the primer, then let it flash and add another layer.
