Hello all, I am new here to these forums though I have been building and fabricating stuff for as long as I can remember.
I wanted to show off the humble beginnings of my custom Mando build. Right now all I have is the very rough mock up of the build. The base helmet is a Don Post/Rubies Jango lid I bough years ago and started a build, with cardboard for the rough shapes. That project unfortunately got put on the extreme back burner in favor of my leather Samurai armor build.
For my helmet I was wanting something different than the standard Mando helmet so I have reduced the size of the visor, the vision out of my nose is pretty poor anyway lol. I am also moving the antenna to the back and removing the range finder. I am also toying with the idea of adding a light to the left temple but honeslty I am swaying away from that idea.
Here are a few pics I snapped earlier, please fee free to share any thoughts or ideas.
NOTE the colors will change and I will have a real antenna for the back on the final product.
