Hello -- not a lot of content yet but just starting my planning on concept etc for my first kit. Basic concept is floating somewhere between a Mando with some cybernetic replacements and a slicer / comms / weapons engineer Mando; my pie in the sky idea is to have a two part 'helmet' which consists in part of a Lobot-style cyber enhancement on the lower half which the properly shaped / modded helmet can fit / over on -- leaving part of the cyber gear visible -- looking like part of the helmet as a whole. I'm not sure I can pull that off so I may go a little simpler the first time out the gate with more of an indication of comms gear and some extra blinky / led work as an indication of the slicer / comms stuff.
I do have my first bucket in hand and am planning some mods to it -- mostly T-visor shape and some bulking out of the lower rim to indicate additional gear.
My inspiration comes in part from some art which 'reimagined' Boba ( which I'm sure most people have seen ).
Obviously this is not straight up star wars style so it needs to be adapted, but I do like the use of things such as the cabling interconnects between parts and the forms on the helmet.
Colouring is up in the air at the moment but I'm thinking a deep blue-green as the primary tone of armor plating. I'm aiming for Modern but if it gets too 'wierd' I will push into Legacy CRL I believe.
Weapons are likely to remain in the pistol / sub-carbine area though things like a Bowcaster, DC-15A or an adaption of a Bo-Rifle to push up the weapons engineer feel.
Thoughts?

Quick addition -- was wondering what folks felt about sizing on this helmet -- keep in mind there are no earcaps on it yet. Also my chin is at least an inch up above the bottom of the front -- though I need to pad it a little -- eyes line up with the T-cross pretty well.
