How do you manage to get things done so fast??? it's amazing

 

[C1RCA]

working on it for a year and some is fast =O

Well, the lid was done a year ago. The armor was only just started a year ago, and then we had a baby. So 6 months down the road and I'd not done any building at all. I then started and finished my Snow Clone helmet and then back to the Mando armor!

I've been working on the armor now for about 4 weeks straight since picking it up again.

I'm a full-time father to 4 great kids and when they're in school it means I have a lot of free time during the day after my "chores" are done.

Amazing Skip!!! You did it!!! Are you going to join the Mandalorian Mercs??

 

[Skupilkinson]

Absolutely!

 

[Aden Kyramud]

Absolutely!

:cheers

 

[Skupilkinson]

That's what I made it for.

 

[C1RCA]

skup just wondering were did you get your strap and buckles from?

 

[Skupilkinson]

*In best Optimus Prime voice* Ebay.

 

[C1RCA]

do you happen to have a link you could pm?

 

[Skupilkinson]

I do but the seller is in the UK. Just search for "webbing" and "snap buckles".

Ok, the new boots came today. Much more comfortable for my wide feet!

Gonna stitch in some velcro to my suit later for my leg plates(thigh and shin armor) and I'll be good to go next time!

Very nice work skip...
now upgrade those knee darts..

 

[Skupilkinson]

Thanks bro!!

It's on my upgrade list.

 

[Odran Kor]

Congrats on finishing your armor... But you'll learn that you'll never finish the upgrading... You're going to find something new to replace or to add, but come on, that's the fun of this hobby...

 

[Skupilkinson]

You're right. I've already got upgrade idea for my leg armor.

 

[Commander720]

With more upgrades means more photos to post up on this thread along with events being attended to. So this thread is not going to be left at the bottom. We will still be seeing those great things to add on. LOL!
