I'd personally recommend you make the helmet shorter. like remove the space between the orange bit and the bike helmet. there's far too much space between your visor and the top of the helmet.

Got my plates cut out and ready to be prepped today, still need to figure out a back plate. And cut out my shoulder bells. I am using 3mm PVC for my armor.

Got armor mostly shaped right, will put it all on later and get a pic taken. Still having issues with the neck piece, my helmet keeps hitting it. I guess I was blessed with a short neck. Any feedback is greatly welcome.

It looks like your botton two plates need to come a bitcloser to your body

The plates will sit against my body, I have a bit of a tummy, and they were also just taped in place not properly mounted.

A thought regarding your helmet: You could modify the bottom of your helmet for more clearance, but you could also leave it as is. I know that might seem a bit odd, but hear me out. Legacy armor emphasizes coverage. With your helmet sitting lower then normal, it provides neck coverage you would otherwise either be lacking, or have to make another armor piece. And imo, it doesn't look bad. Biggest downside is the way it will limit your head movement, but again, from an in-verse standpoint even that has advantages. Less head movement means it's harder to get a broken neck.

Armor does not make a Mandalorian. The armor is simply a manifestation of an impenetrable, unassailable heart.

Did some bondo work on my gauntlets this morning. These are the Gypsy gauntlets from Eternal Armory.
