grunt mando = your basic mando not jango ,jaster, myles, or montros
aka cannon fodder / back ground mando

Oh, I see now.
It wasn't a term I was familiar with for some reason.

Awesome...good to see some OS Mando's besides the main ones! (I'm guilty of a main one :facepalmlol) Also can't wait to see how it turns out. Best of luck!!

lol yea! It's something I considered too, but I just can't resist the silver/red OS Jango. It's my weakness 
. I would say let's troop together when you're done, if I didn't live in Illinois haha! If you're ever doing something with the Mando near Chicago let me know

okay.. asking everyones opinion here.. should i go ahead and use the shoulder art from Boba or should I use the one from Jaster Mereel?

i'd say neither. you can see right and left shoulders on those grunts and they don't have anything.

that's true.... kinda waiting for my copy of the open seasons book to arrive ( **** media mail) to really finish up with the paint design..

comics arrived.. noticed some generic shoulder art on a few of the mando's but nothing real definative..

I refer to them as "Those guys that sheilded the main guys with their bodies".

I have loved the middle mando's (without the pack) back armor. I love the scale look to it. If they all didn't look so much like Fett, or Kast for that matter, I think I'd paint one of my sets as it.
Keep up the good work man, can't wait to see it finished! :love

I agree.. when ever i see a picture of a group of boba's it's kinda like how a I think a army of mandos would look like

LoL... well i love that same back armor.. you may just see it on this mando when I get finished ... Well jodo kasts armor had a previous owner i just like to think i am going for one of the fellow vode of that owner.. and if u want to do a grunt then jsut need to change and add a few things on your Jodo costume
and thank you both for the words of encouragement..

Very true, all I'd need to do is cut out an addition set of shoulder bells, mabey knees, and a chest plate for a variant logo. It looks like the scale backarmor one we like only has a soft parts girth belt on, with a big ammo pouch. It sorta looks like its made from material. If anything, I could cut my wait size out in sintra, and put material over it for a belt, so I could hang the large pouches on it. I don't think a velcroed cloth belt would hold that large of pouch up.
And the best part about it? Not having a jet pack is canon!
That pouch realy sorta looks like a pouch for paintball pods, or the size of it. I actualy have a spair pack that I could cut in half and have two sets of two pouches that would work.

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