Mandalorian Merc Attempt at a mandalorian protector

That paint is gritty n weathered on those gauntlets, can't wait to see it on you. Dressed like a true merc
 
I should focus on finishing this, here's what I'm looking at doing for a blaster rifle...or an extra one. Inspired by Jodo Kasts
Rifle. I'm thinking of replacing trigger gaurd with aluminium, wood stock in future. Have got a fett ee3 scope which may get modified. Other things being planned are aluminium Jodo gauntlet rockets....and I may try casting ( Destroying something) a few pieces in aluminium....helmet ear, jetpack exhaust and a few other bits....that's a project..and learning
Got to try getting the ball rolling again, bottom pic is what I have out at moment, rest got packed away or burnt

Had a little bit of play time. Mucking around with right gauntlet, inspired by images of Jodo Kasts and Boba Fetts gauntlets in the comic "Twin Engines of Destruction". I'm still mocking up the final look...clay was used to suggest a different material, where the rubber band is I may turn down the shafts diameter to sit lower. May add in some copper piping
