See - this is what I mean... I understand the "concept" of hiding it (like the "Good, Bad, & Ugly" pre-pre-pre-pro shot now on display in the Saarlac Pit where you're basically hiding all you your weaponry and armor, but not the pack) but it seemed to me the cape would go UNDER the pack for...

Pffff... Boba! Clone! Wannabe! errr.... uh oh. I mean.... errr... nevermind! Just kidding. Well - good reference for that. I guess I'm more questioning the EU Manalorians with capes. Were they under as fire retardants or over as "hiding" the equipment? Color me confused.

Okay, Seeing as how I do NOT have a jet pack yet, and I'm going for a massive all out push to finish my custom Mandalorian (or at least get the costume to 75% completion) by Saturday morning with the local 'con being this weekend... I have a question for when I DO get a jet pack: Does...

Highly unlikely (unless I'm divorced) I'll be going to CIII (unfortunately).

Hmmm... definately cool for a custom, but something about it screams Romulan Disruptor to me.

I presume this IS NOT a cast metal one he's talking about then Brian?

Dude -- I'd take you up on doing my interior and doing an RC Servo --- but alas the 'con out here is this coming weekend - so I don't have time to send away my as yet completed bucket! :(

Elighten us Tylerdurden... well... those of us not in the know on the differences. Please?

All I can say is: HOLY CRIPES! That is awesome. It even has "carbon" marks on the scuffs and dent where it would seem logical he took some sort of hit to tear the paint off. Damn. I am SO thinking when I get some skills at this I need to do a Boba.

Actually - they're gold... and Thanks.

Well - I went with the matte/flat clearcoat for the finish after adding just a little more "wear" to the helmet. I figure how Mandalorian would it be to be wearing a glossy set of armor. Really? I mean even Jango's metal silver was dulled down for the most part. So - here it is...

You forgot about the sweatermonkey types. I hear they kinda dig being Jango groopies.

Thanks DV1, I am trying to take my time (despite my deadline and growing excitement) to make sure this looks EXACTLY how I want it as a custom. I'm going to reshape the armor slightly to fit my frame better - then comes primer and primary painting... so I'll post those as soon as I make some...

I'll see what I can do - but an unexpected unemployment in the family has left me a little strapped for pre-payment of larger purchases if its not in installments at the moment.

Thanks Rimshot. I just added a little "wear" to the burgundy areas - but it needs a little more... put some depth to the wear spots I think... and I "Jango" striped the top of the helmet too with a dual pinstripe! GOLD! With the graphite and the burgundy it looks badass! It's almost got a...
