My First Mando

Banana Fett

New Hunter
Hello i'm new but have been lurking for a week or so trying to pick up basic concepts and what not

im beginning work on my first costume and want to jump straight into a custom mando.

tommorw i am taking a trip to my local Hobby Lobby/craft store to buy the materials for my bucket and was wondering if there was anything special i needed to pick up besides the cardboad mat, resin, other tools as in a few x-actos, hot glue sticks, etc.

also does good cardboard mat product work for decent first time armor?

Cardboard does suprisingly well for armor in general. I havent seen it personaly, but there's a few Mando's out there (and a couple here, i think Arden Fisk used cardboard) that did absolutely amazing jobs (Fisk again lol).

So to answer your question, yep !
 
i threw together this paintjob on the MandoMaker the other day but still plan on sketching out some things and colouring the sketches to post.

i plan on moding the bucket a little bit adding a little bit of texture to make it that much more custom, also i plan on throwing on sort of a White Hand of Sauroman somewhere on the bucket C:

im so excited about getting to hobby lobby but gotta wait for the cash :p
