Greetings and merry met to all. A question?
So far all my costuming/armor experience is of a medival nature. Sewing tunic and kilts, linking chainmail, ext. With this in mind when I look at Mando suits I'm struck by all the gaps in their coverage. Now I know these suits where designed for movie appearance not combat survivability, however...
When I first thought of making a custom Mando suit I immediately thought of incorporating what I know of medival armor design and layering. What I would like to know is what everyone would think of a Mando suit that including chainmail under or between the plates? If you saw such a suit walking aroung a convention/gathering would you think: 'Cool/Interesting/Awsome idea.', or would you think I have breathed in far too much Bondo?
All comments/thought/observation/snide remarks are welcome. I believe(and practice) in brutal honesty, whether or not you agree/disagree.
Unitl next time blessed be...
