Yeah, I like the longstrike, but I want something else (yes, I'm rather picky). I'd love to get one of the Nerf N-strike Firefly blasters...

and add a barrel...but we'll see...I might just get a longshot and save myself all the trouble...

 

[depbauer]

That might work, just add a barrel. I am actually from Glendale but been stuck in MO. for the past 20 years. Next time I visit my parents I would like to check out the armor.

Big up's man!
Wicked awesome Beskar'gam.
It's costumers like you that inspire people like me.
I have been watching these boards alot recently and would like to make another set of beskar'gam. (My first set was made before i discovered this site and is made from corrogated cardboard and paper mache, not one of my better ideas, as when trooping in hot weather your sweat makes it soggy
I to have recently purchased a nerf vulcan to modify for my next set of beskar'gam (even though like you I am a sniper).
Any way bringing about an end to my rambling once again looking good.
Tracyn out.

OK, just a slight update:
I rebuilt my backplate with a little (alright a LOT) of help from dankenman's armour thread (thanks vod!!!:cheers). I'll post pics once I get it painted and weathered a bit.

Again, thanks to all for the kind words and encouragement; you guys are the best!!!

:cheers

[dankenman]

Cant wait to see it brother! Glad my thread could help. That is one of the reasons I love it here, there is always someone to answer questions, and bounce ideas off of.

 

[Aden Kyramud]

OK, so I wore my armour to Phoenix CC yesterday, and found several minor flaws, most of which have been corrected. Still gotta post pics...

 

[Nautilus]

What material(s) have you made it of?

[Aden Kyramud]

Nice job! Love the slicing across the bucket face. Have a run in with an angry nexu did we? The mythotaur skull from the belt is sweet!

 

[dankenman]

Looking great brother! What are you gonna do next! Have you worked on your sniper rifle yet?

 

[adonian]

I like it, it looks really good, I hope I have some time to catch up with you, but as you can see by my posts, it's been a while since I've done anything with mine... I gotta wait for the tax man to pay me, but get this, California is gonna give IOU's ***?!

Anyway, GR8 work.

...Adonian, how is the armour coming??? Again, I get update hungry...

 

[Django]

Very cool! I love the color scheme and the small details. where'd you get the small mythosaur skull?? And is that a galco yaqui belt slide holster you're packing your light blaster in??

The Kamas are a kewl addition I really like too.

Cant wait to see more.

This is gonna be a sniper mando, right? I say build a HUGE rifle (but light ) with a long, telescoping or foldable barrel. (its not a real weapon, so it can be different!) Imagine trooping into a convention with a huge pack on your back, then pulling it off, snapping the barrel in place, screwing in the stock, and dropping the rolling bipod!! More like a roving mando turret! Just a thought. Am I insane? You have no idea.

I'm not quite sure either, but he MIGHT mean trimming it a bit shorter on the bottom or simply untucking it, instead of keeping it tucked behind the belt. I dunno. I think it would look cool either way.

keep us posted!

 

[CasiusOntius]

It looks great! I really like all of the little details. Could we see a pic of the back? :cheers

I gotta get my printer back on line so I can print my shoulder bells and collar so I can cut 'em out of my trash cans, I'll see if I can at least get to that, plus since I started the new job, my schedule is all messed up (sucks to be the new employee).

When I get some $, I'll tint the visor with mirror and finally get it installed and I plan on buying an RF stalk since it's so darn hard to get mine to work. :rolleyes
