Hello all,
So I have been toying with the idea of doing a "canon" (well in this case legends) build for ages now. I thought about doing a Deathwatch Grunt, Clan Wren Grunt and even one of the Mandalores. But I never really connected with any of those builds. In my wanderings in search of a character build that I might want to undertake. I came across the True Mandalorians again and my first thought was that I could go that route as the True Mandalorian CRL/BRLs strike a nice middle ground between canon and custom, still offering the challenge that I was looking forward yet without being uttering locked in.
However when the idea of doing a Jaster Mereel build instead was put forward and after doing some brushing up on the character I decided that I could really get behind this character and so I have set to work.
This will be an undertaking for me, but I think being that this will be the sixth kit I will have build, (three for myself and two for my wife) that it is time to push things to a new level.
And now for the checklist!
