My mandalorian armor progress

Wow the paint made it look like cardboard. But yes it is and I already had a couple guys ask me if it was molded. I am making a desert mandalorian and the paint is tan, my camera phone is **** so you get the picture. Ill update this with better pictures showing what it looks like.

So that isn't cardboard??

It sure does look like it...:facepalm:rolleyes


Read the second sentence. "But yes it is..."


I honestly dont care if its cardboard because I want to take a new path and be creative instead of buying a 400 dollar set of mandalorian armor. Does it look nice though? also forget about the piece on the right, it has not been smoothed out yet. But I was saying that the old pictures made the color look more like cardboard. It is also reinforced with fiberglass.
 
Haha, it always helps to read all the posts...:lol:

I am not going to answer that question, because everyone has different opinions on what looks good.

I understand the armor deal, but I am not sure if Chest Armor costs 400 bucks buddy!:)

No that looks good everytime i try to make cardboard armor it looks like (you know what) but hey i like it(y)
 
Cardboard? You've gotta be kidding me!
Trust me, It won't work out the way you planned!
I know because i tried it once because i didn't have
a Sterilite trash can!
 
:facepalm What a rude comment to give especially after all that hard work I have put into this. Maybe your armor looked like **** after it was done, it doesnt mean mine has to. I am not looking for movie replicas, I just want to make my own armor. :angry Just dissapoints me about the fact that some people are so damn immature. And I havent seen any of your work so before you post some **** like that prove to me that you can do a better job. And btw do mandalorians buy their armor from mandos r us? HELL NO! They make their own armor.

dude, don't worry about him. i think being resourceful is awesome! we got people making armor out of fiber glass, trash cans, and cardboard. whatever. all the matters is that you are happy with it and that it is fun for you. that's what this whole costuming thing should be about. this isn't a contest.

Watch your mouth there buddy, you're the one leaving rude comments. Montatora Vioria was only pointing out that cardboard wasn't the best way to go. You can use cardboard if you want, but don't expect the best quality products. He wasn't telling you do go buy your armour, he gave you another option for armour making and you just overlooked that. You're the one who's acting immature. What I would recommend would be logging in under another account and literally looking at what you posted through the eyes of another.
 
Honestly I did jump the gun a little too fast and I didnt think before I posted. So on that note, I apologize, but the word censor is so sensitive. I wasnt cursing to hell and back. All I said was C-R-A-P and it censored it.

And I thought his comment was rude the way he wrote it because if someone else replys in your thread with a comment like

"Cardboard? You've gotta be kidding me!
Trust me, It won't work out the way you planned!
I know because i tried it once because i didn't have
a Sterilite trash can!"

Oh wait, actually it did work out the way I planned.

But again, I apologize for jumping the gun too fast and posting an immature comment like mine.
