Custom Mando :D (Pic Heavy)

I hope not...:lol: great stuff that glue!

And as for the visor Ord'ika, I usually cut it out at the very end. Then there is no chance of warpong or distortion. :)

Looks good!!!
:cheers

Sweet! I'm excited to go buy gorilla glue now, LoL. But Finals are coming up and my family and I are going to go see Star Wars in Concert this Saturday so I don't know how soon going out and buying it will be.

Guess what my Spanish class decided to do? Make pinatas! Here's my groups:

NEVER! Everyone in my class loved it so much that they volunteered to sacrifice their own pinatas for ours. :D

OKAY!!!! I"m back from Christmas break and now its time to work me shebs off to get this set done before next week. The reason why is that next week is spirit week at my school and there's a character day, which I'll be dressed up as myself but in my mando armor. :D So, helmet it getting smoother--at least the dome is, hehehe-- and I came up with an ingenious way to attach elastic bands to leg armor:

STAPLES!!!!! I reinforced the back of the staple with the gorilla glue that didn't work attaching the elastic to the plastic. (ignore the rhyme.)

More pics later when I get more work done...

Quick tip with those ear greeblies hun, put some sandpaper on a flat surface and move the greeblies up and down on it where you need it to be straight.

Yeah, paint your helmet, cut the bad boy out and size your template up quickly, I'm guessing your helmet won't have the keyslots.

No, it's not my birdthay, sorry. I just said it to make the post more exciting.

Yeah, my ears are really pathetic. I was really experimenting, but I'll sand em and slap em on there. I cover em with bondo, right?
