Kyram Do'ruun's armor

[Kyram]

Just got my armor in the mail today and started painting the shoulder plates. Sorry about the bad pictures, they wouldn't turn out without te flash on.

 

[TantiveIV]

those are gorgeous, what kinda paint did you use for the symbols?

Thanks!

The symbols were done using rust-oleum "Canyon Black" satin finish sparypaint. The white triangle was hand painted using testors glossy white only because I didn't have any white spraypaint. I printed out both designs and cut out stencils using an x-acto blade.

 

[TantiveIV]

very cool, thanks for the info!

Looking sharp Kyram, can't wait to see how your vision turns out on the rest of your Armour.....

SWEET I LOVE IT. That`s a great paint job you did asome I can`t wate to see the rest.

 

[Kyram]

Valcar, TantiveIV, MMF#1---> Thanks!!! I'm glad you like them.
Here's my knee armor. Pretty basic sintra w/ a two-tone black and red design and weathering. Might get something a little more fancy later but it works for now. These, like the rest of my armor, will eventually have a brown/green grime wash.

I'm installing the visor into my helmet tonight. Talk about a pain in the butt process! It's coming along though.

Dam right this is coming along, I like the way you have done the red very thick, it's got a great layering look to it..... very good indeed Kyram...

Got my chest armor done yesterday... It's complete with Do'ruun clan motto in Mando'a written in Mandalorian text. LMKWYT.

 

[setra]

that armour is kick *** mate...well done

 

[Crixler]

I like it! The written Mando'a adds a nice touch.

 

[Tracyn]

Looking very good. Although I'd go with a black-clad lower plate as well...

 

[Kyram]

Thanks Setra, Crixler, Tracyn!
Either of these look better? I had considered putting black on the gut plate but wasn't sure if it would look better than just the silver. Everyone please let me know what you think...

Definitely #2

 

[Jun Garros Fett]

I would go with pic #2.

Armor is looking pretty good BTW.

^^ Yep, that's exactly what I meant.

But still, it's your call.

 

[Darth Valcar]

Definitely #2

This Armour looks great Number 2 for sure, I did like the silver, but the black adds much more of a look to it.... I don't know it all looks good....

 

[NovallTalon]

Your armor is looking awesome! Definately go with #2.

 

[Uther]

Have you thought of R'n'B'ing the armor? I think it would make it look pretty nice, unless it would be too difficult to mask it all off.

 

[Kyram]

Well that settles that then. LOL. And I agree, it rounds the design out pretty well.

Uther: Sorry, what is R&Bing? Still kind of a n00b here
