Okay, here's what I've got so far.



My (rough) concept for my armor.



My left chest plate needs to be reformed, so ignore its awkward shape. I had an ab plate, but it was judged as being too asymmetrical, so I have to cut and shape a new one.



My backplate still needs to be formed and sanded. And my knees and gauntlets are good to go, but they need to be repainted.



Gloves and guns. My Westar-34s still need some work to make them look screen-accurate, but are otherwise good.



Ammo belt and (temporary) girth belt. I've got plenty of braided cord and more vinyl to make a better one.



Flak vest and balaclava.



And my flight suit; which needs a little sewing along the waist, but is otherwise good.

I still need to make a cod piece, and then I just need to sand and form the rest of my plates. After that, they'll be ready for paint and primer. I'm planning on making my shins and boot plates later, after I've gotten my new boots; my current ones are too beat up.

I currently have a two-piece Jango helmet, but it's for another build, so I still have to get another helmet. If anyone has any recommendations, feel free to share.

Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you.

Ab plates can be tricky to get the consistent spacing with the fangs and the rest of the chest plate! 

It all looks pretty good so far! Look forward to seeing it on you :)

May need to modify the pouches just a bit from off the shelf tactical, but that's all I'm seeing right now :)   I like your color scheme too.

And with Havelock in your corner, your kit will be awesome!

Thanks. The ammo belt may be temporary, too. Depends on when I get my Jango belt.

You have all the ingredients for an incredible armor.
I like the design on the plates, maybe not black, maybe a color that contrasts with the gray color: orange or yellow, it's just an idea ;D.

Good luck vod

Off to a really great start and the armor concept is certainly pretty unique. Quick question, how is the back plate going to fit with your over the head collar plate/ gorget once it is attached to your vest?

It's based off the Wren plates, hence the designs. And I need to get/make another vest for my Jango build anyway, but we'll see.

Thanks. It’s a combination of the Clan Wren and Kryze armor, as well as Ram Zerimar’s.
