What a brilliant build! I can't rave on this enough. Great job.

The only thing I have concern over is (and mind you I am not a voting member of the APP TEAM) what looks like EVA foam set in the interior of your neck armor. I think you already touched on it being sealed up, but I just wanted to make sure that the inside is just as solid as the outside.

Phenomenal job, for sure. You very well have raised the bar for building heavy armored Mandos!

Is that a kidney plate you're using for the neck? If so, you'll need to change that out. Per CRLs:

"Unmodified armor pieces from the Boba, Jango, and Legacy templates are not permitted to be used in place of other armor pieces. For example, unmodified shoulder cannot be used in the place of knees."

I'd say greeb that up or modify it more so that it isn't so recognizable as a kidney plate and I think you'd be fine. The key is the "unmodified" part of the CRL rule.

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