Sucuy'gar ner vode. I just joined and I thought that I'd let y'all know what I have going. I joined the Mandalorian Mercs forum a couple of months ago (under the same game), and have been recommended here. So here I am! LOL. So, first, here's the concept art for my beskar'gam and buy'ce:

Beskar'gam:

Buy'ce pics 1 & 2:

and:

The Clan sigil for my Mercs clan (NWC: Northwest Confederacy):

For the flak vest I'm planning on using a MOLLE plate carrier vest. Here is the MS Paint concept work for what the plate shape will be:
Front:

Back:

For the bucket I've bought one of the M-DSB "Mercenary" helmets from ZevFett:

and I am planning on using A'den's idea for ventilation holes instead of voice amps and fans, as well as the viewer I think, still debating that one:

There's a fellow named BrokenBoba on the Mercs (I assume that he's here too) from whom I'm buying a polycarbonate T-visor from when I get my next paycheck this coming Friday.

If there's anything more that I haven't posted about, then I'll post it up later. In the mean time: "Shhh, be vewy vewy quiet. We're hunting for Imperials"

Oya Manda!

Nice to see you here, Ram'ika! Are you dying your vest or leaving it camo?

Thanks Jango, I'm actually known as the Christmas Mando on another site.

Well Bes'kad, I'm glad that I'm here too! I'm leaving it as the camo, I have some other gear that has that same MARPAT pattern, plus it’s kind of a dedication to the Marines.

Alright, now that I have progress, I will show it to you.

Ner Buy'ce by M-DSB (M(arcus)-D(elta)S(quad)B(oss)):
Box that it came in:

"This is my face":

From the side:

"Oh Jango! I knew him well!":

With T-visor cut out:

Keyholes:

With it on:

Battle damaged already

:

and I decide that I didn't like how narrow the visor was so I widened it, much better:

Now I have to sand the edges, clean, tape, and paint.

Did you borrow a Dremel and cut all that out or have someone do it?

We actually have a Dremel, so I just did that myself.

Well great job! Cutting the t visor & esp the coin slots is not easy! So why in the world did I show you how to cut your holster?? LOL!

Well, because before I didn't know how to use the Dremel . You're definetly right about it not being easy! I still have some work to do on the visor (if you notice they are uneven) and I almost screwed up the keyslots! You're right, that Dremel doesn't cut cut, it freaking melts the plastic. LOL

Hopefully I should be able to do some more work on it today.
