    Andy's Din Djarin BoBF/S2 Costume Build

    There are a few really high skilled makers that offer this greave using the JJ shin form but her's just hits different in all the right ways, it will plug in nicely into your kit Dan along with the rest of the new additions coming!

    Andy's Din Djarin BoBF/S2 Costume Build

    Thanks! She makes some great stuff but her lead times have reasonably gone up, what pickups are you getting for your kit from her? The leather varies from each vendor, she consults with Luke Daley who's an advisor with the BHG a fair bit in regards to getting as much of the detailing correct...

    Andy's Din Djarin BoBF/S2 Costume Build

    Today’s update has been ages overdue not because I was waiting for the items but because I wanted to share them properly with my new photo setup, here is my gorgeous 3rd generation genuine Italian leather bandolier, belt and leg greaves set made by the incomparably talented and kind Debora Di...

    Aw thanks Dan! Sean did a magnificent job on the finish and weathering, just the right balance of shine and filth lol. I can't wait to get my soft parts and starting fitting everything.

    Andy's Din Djarin BoBF/S2 Costume Build

    Another happy milestone marked on this journey my helmet and armor have arrived! Everything came impeccably made and packaged by my Beskar Guru NomadProps! Models come courtesy of Great Ape Studio, the bestest aluminum knee darts from JJ Industries, the helmet was cast molded and the armor resin...

    Dan’s Mandalorian Build

    Very clever attachment method Dan! The extra safety redundancy was a wise addition. It's a relief to know I am not the only one dealing with the plight of slender forearms lol.

    Right now based on what I've read you can't have the mudhorn signet or jetpack for the S1, however the backplate on the site is still the inaccurate one. I would check with your local GML team that handles the approvals and have a chat about it...

    Andy's Din Djarin BoBF/S2 Costume Build

    Hahaha prepare yourself, back in August of last year Darren Pattenden the creator of the Great Ape files made a correction to the backplate model because what everyone thought was a machined groove detail in the beskar backplate was in fact not that at all. But probably a break. They actually...

    A few modestly big updates to share first news on the helmet! It was love at first sight more than a year ago when I was scouting for one and saw NomadProps take on it. There are a lot of really great Din buckets available right now and each has their own characteristics and I won't choose sides...

    Andy's Din Djarin BoBF/S2 Costume Build

    It's long overdue I know haha! I've been keeping quiet for months until more tangible progress came together on many parts. You're right I'm Sean's second to last armor commission before he retires. Right under the wire too, I sent my submission in all the way back in October of last year! Well...

Below is my build list for reference, aiming for initially basic approval...

    Ralph you do have the moves for sure! Aside from formatting the crew over at the BHG are sending up the draft soon for review, once the CRL is squared away for basic approval level 2 shouldn't be far behind. Right now our hopes and dreams rest on your shoulders Ralph for getting first anywhere...

    Mandalorian armor question

    Short list of makers for the armor, Jon Stark, Danny Redman, Cristian Martinez and Nigel Chua. Their work is top notch, but remember they are investments so bear that in mind for finished commissions. If you want to check their work look up there social profiles on Facebook and Instagram then DM...

    Ralph's Mandalorian build

    Congrats man, it's an investment but you want it done right those are the people to order from. Debora does make capes and aprons apart from her leather wares but doesn't focus on the other items for the costume, if you're interested check out The Darkside Closet also on Facebook and Instagram...

    Ralph's Mandalorian build

    You can reach Debora Di Meo via her Facebook or Instagram account, when you request the commission she'll ask you to buy the shin form from JJ Industries official site and to use her shipping address during checkout. JJ with then send the shin along with other items for different commissions in...
