Many, many thanks my Mandalore.
I have some new pics here of my armour, ( very much WIP, but here they are.)
All are steel, carbon/ kevlar composite.
Also a couple of pics of my blaster.
There is a bit of creative history regarding my blaster.....,
My boss' wife is an award winming costume designer and has a bit to do with Weta workshop.
My boss really likes Weta's new line of `Flash Gordon' style rayguns and decided, as a challenge, my blaster should follow along those lines.
I've given it a go ( bear in mind this is still a WIP)
This blaster was built using the Rubies Jango blasters, also, the sound effects still work.
Now another theory I've been working with is an armour package consisting of past family members plates wouldn't necessarily be the same shape.
Surmising these armour pieces could have come from many different time periods I have decide to create armour plates that reflect this.
My visor uses the sandwiched method ( plastic/ tinting/ plastic), It is sitting loose in my bucket at the moment.
