Open seasons Grunt mando..

[jodo]

I was thinking of doing a "sash" around the waist and having a leather belt to hold the ammo pouches and holsters..

Thats crazy that you say that, because I seriously had that in the post of mine above, but ended up deleting it out of it to explain the sintra wrapped belt!

 

[twistedxknights]

you know what they say.. great minds think alike..

would love to get this mando variant 501st approved.. but not sure how the gml's are gonna react..

 

[jodo]

Or either that we escaped from the same Asylum. p

I would think after a little bit of talking it could be approved. There where multiple mando grunts in the comic, and it was an official Dark Horse SW comic. Between the Jedi Vs. Mando battle there where plenty of angles for refrencing them. I think you need at least 3 angles if I remember correctly. Or something like that. Mabey I made that up. I don't know off hand, do they have a list now of accepted characters? Something like that.

Jodo.. I contacted the LMO for the 501st and was told

The current standard of practice is for a new character to have three separate Lucasfilm licensed produced/released visual sources that depict the character in the exact same manner visually.

so.. long road ahead and alot of waiting and hoping

Hmmm, mabey they'd could consider the diffrent angles of grunts in Open Season enough. :facepalm

Love your helmet BTW! :love

 

[twistedxknights]

thank you for the compliment on the helmet... looks 10x better then when it arrived (broken into about 5 pieces)...

That's really got to bite. It looks like the repair process went off without a hitch. Great bucket!

 

[twistedxknights]

thanks for the compliments everyone

 

[twistedxknights]

just want to say still working on it.. put together a set of vac form knees (from rimshot) and cut out some pieces for the back armor I'll post pics soon..

 

[Cruzer]

Looks good so far. I've always liked those versions. I look forward to watching your progress.

separate references mean just that.

so you'd need the open seasons comic book
another comic book
a hasbro/kenner figure (since im pretty sure we accept those now as a referance)

While the figures are accepted as refferences. just that There probably won't be a generic mando figure with this back armor. Most likely just repaints of jango or boba.

 

[twistedxknights]

worked on a few more pieces for this costume..

definitely gonna have to repaint the previously painted pieces as I like how these turned out better
