Her is my WIP for my current mando, not OM yet. I have submitted my Pre-App pics and been given a list of fixes I need to complete. Stay tuned and I hope this somehow helps someone
My 1st attempt was terrible, and i scrapped the entire kits (plates) I had gotten some bad advice on plate sizing and they had me trim them way too much...
My 2nd attempt i decided to entertain trauma plates. Now that I loved!
I had also made a scratch build helmet, but then the wife bought me an amazing helmet from Restin! and that is now my face!
After the Pre-App pics, my wife ordered me a set of custom made Jango gauntlets too. (mine are painful as all get out lol)
Here are the Pre-App pics:
New Gauntlets:
New Helmet:
The back plate had been my worst nightmare, I have decided to go with a segmented back plate, I wont be adding a jetpack. So the single plate back was not that important to me.
Here is the concept for the back plate:
The yellow lines are some feedback from a great friend. and I will update it when the the back in cut out.
Collar:
I have also made a new collar plate, but it's not pic ready yet. The current one in too wide.
Vest:
My current vest is too big now (lost weight) and the side velcro is in the wrong direction. We will be making a new one....
Thighs:
I will be relocating the thighs to be a bit higher on the leg, to keep from colliding with the knee plates.
Knee:
I will be making new knee armor too. darn 3mm snaps way too easy. 6mm here I come!
Boot Armor:
I will be designing ew boot armor, these were a rushed job to just try and pass (didn't work lol)
Alright there is my WIP, feel free to add some feedback!
