After 2 years it's finally time to retire my old kit and start making a new one.
It'll be rather heavy armor, I was thinking of 2 color schemes:

or

Still not sure which one is better, but probably I'll change my mind at least 5 times and end up doing completely different paint scheme 
I started with making belt and all that leather stuff, after 2 weeks I got this:

It's my 1st attempt at leather working so I'm pretty proud of how it turned out. It's still not ready ofcourse, I have to sew some pieces of leather together & make holster. Also I'll probably dye it to darker brown.
Comments & criticism are always welcome

Nice leatherwork! That's something I gotta get into one of these days.

As for color scheme, I kinda like the second one

Thanks Kavryn
Started my new helmet a while ago, here's the result of several weeks of work:




The dome was sculpted in clay & the rest of the helmet was made with 3 mm sintra.
It's all very rough, also dome needs some reshaping, but other than that I'm quite happy with the results so far.

Well I personally like the second design better glad to see you back at work I dig the helmet, looking forward to seeing it complete!
Oya!

Belt/harness looks awesome. I vote for color scheme 1.

Thanks guys 
Cheeks are almost done:

[Oren-Cathal]

Really digging the boxed out cheeks, like the look better then the rounded style.

Vor'e Oren    I wanted to create something between standard Boba and assassin/destroyer buckets + I feel like that kind of cheeks gives helmet more agressive & intimidating look.

[Oren-Cathal]

I've always liked a sharper look, I have to agree it looks more agressive.

[Echo Darklighter]

Ahh!  Square cheeks!  Be still, my beating heart!

I've always been a fan, and yes, they do make the helmet look so, so much meaner.  Keep up the good work, vod!

Commenting for updates. That helmet looks solid.

Looking great vod!  The leather work is awesome and that helmet is gorgeous, super clean work!!  I'm also digging the second color theme.

Finally I managed to make some progress with my new bucket.
Ears, rangefinder & back panel are done so everything is ready for bondo now.
I taped ears to bucket to see how it looks and took a few pics of it:

Wow! 

Really nice work on the helmet vod!!  Super clean lines.
