I mean, how can I not?

OK, gathering references. This is what I’ve got so far.

Front:




Back:



So I have gleaned that she has standard Night Owl S7 grunt armor, but she added a bit of Clan Wren color and flair to the front of the helmet and the chest plates.

Blue Flight suit and gloves

Animation Black (aka really dark grey) t-shirt/flack vest.

Brown belts with 8 pouches - 6 small (4 in back and 2 in front) and 2 slightly larger (on the sides).

Grey armor with darker grey collar and holsters.

Grey and blue jet pack.

Helmet is a standard Night Owl and has grey cheeks and back, dark grey dome and blue band along the back. I will be using an NME Night Owl that I already have.



Here is my quick sketch of her Clan Wren flair. (I didn’t draw a rangefinder, but she does have one)

I'm new to building Mandalorian kits, did you make that helmet or buy? It's really nice!

I bought it. It is made by NME props. They are listed in the sellers list here on the forum (or just google them).   :sabine:

Got this great shot of her helmet



The cheeks are a light grey or heavily black washed white (might be easier to start with a light grey base). The main design is a light yellow - I am leaning towards the lighter yellow I used in my other Ursa kit. The circles are a darker yellow. And the entire design is outlined in the same color as the cheeks with a small dark grey pin stripe in-between in the yellow and the outline (much like my other kit - she seems to have a preferred style).

I was bored, so I sketched the design out on my helmet - I know it will be covered up once I start painting, but I wanted to try it out.




Also, her knees seem to be an odd color (as well as the knees of the generic Night Owls) so that's something I will have to keep a close eye on.

In this picture she is on the far left, just about off screen and you can see one of her knees clearly. And also the knees of the Night Owl behind her.



And here is a clearer shot of a Generic Night Owl where you can see the knees



This is a 'daylight' shot and they look almost yellow (with heavy black wash) and a similar color to the one on her helmet.

Her knee color looks goldish-brown me to? Or at least, dark gold with a brown and black wash maybe?

Yeah, it looks be leaning to yellow in the daylight shot. I did a side by side and it looks like it could be the same color as on her helmet

I dig it, and I look forward to seeing you bring this to life :). Seems like you're very prepared to do the necessary reseach.

OK, took a stab at paper templates for the colllar, chest and ab plates. First attempt was way too wide and I had to trim a lot.




I think I need to bring up the bottom of the chest plates and maybe make the ab a bit shorter too. I think my belts are going to sit a bit higher than they are hitting now.

I mentioned already that the neck hole seemed a bit wide but the rest looks good to me! :) im impressed with your templating and will definitely need your help once it’s safe!

I tweaked my templates a bit - I made the neck hole smaller as Kryamla suggested and I added a bit of tasteful side boob on the chest plates. I don’t have a picture yet.

Meager shots of Ursa in this last episode, but we did get an almost full knees to head shot and a distant back shot.




I have updated my helmet sketch and added the back view.



I have ordered my belts and pouches from Delta13 here on the forum - I got his Bo Katan set with 2 of the pouches slightly larger.

I have also ordered my shoes. On the advice of Kryamla, I got the black Timberland Nellie boot, which is what she got for her first Bo.

https://www.amazon.com/Timberland-Womens-Nellie-Double-Waterproof/dp/B005B8AUXI?th=1

My gloves should arrive tomorrow. Hopefully the color is good. And hopefully they will be able to sell their dyed fabrics again soon.

My gauntlet, westars and jet pack are being printed and should be delivered sometime this week.

I also bought the same knees as Kryamla (she’s really been a huge help!)

Glad to help! :D

Updated sketch is looking good! I’m not sure if the blue for the back helmet band is too dark? The generic Nite owls back band is a bit of a brighter blue and I’m wondering if hers is similar to that? But it’s hard to tell at the moment, hopefully we’ll see more of Ursa (in better lighting!) in next weeks episode :)

Looking like a great build... I feel like considering how cool the nite owls are the male deathwatch armors aren't nearly as cool... Though I am thinking of starting a Gar Saxon build.

OK, thank Filoni I now have so many more references. I am not sure if it is too soon to post the images from the new ep (and I have a lot of them), so I will just drop the link to my references album. These are from cap-that.com.

https://imgur.com/a/7n3InPC

The new details are - she either has a grey fabric block on the back of her gloves (with decorative stitching) or a really thin hand plate.
The back of her helmet has some Clan Wren flair as well. I am not 100% sure on the color of the band and the vents on the back - dark grey or navy blue.
Her hair is similarly styled to older Ursa, but bangs are pushed aside, center part, pulled back in 3 distinct sections and the hair bit is slightly different.

Based on how the shadows were falling on the chest plates, I have altered my template a bit - I removed the top dart and moved the bottom dart up and made it longer. I also changed up the angles on the outside edge.



I received my gloves and my boots. The gloves are a good color IMHO and will also be a good color for the flight suit (when they are selling fabric again). If the wait is too long, I will look elsewhere for fabric - Joanns has a lovely Navy stretch pontes.




I also drew up the rest of the templates for the bits I will be doing in sintra - cod, shoulder, thigh, and shin.



And here is an updated sketch of my helmet and main armor.



I will be placing an order with Imperial Surplus for the back plate and boot armor. I received the prints for my gauntlets, westars, and jet pack.

Looking back at my references, I can now see the yellow on the back of her helmet here, so that confirms it is her and the band is dark blue and the key slots are dark grey



Also I ordered a bunch of swatches from spandexworld.com because I am impatient for welovecolor.com and I want to see my options.

I just want to take a moment and appreciate this bada**



OK, so I now have nice screen caps from cap-that.com.

https://i.imgur.com/sP2PDqz.jpg

I think I can now figure out the paint for the jet pack which is grey and blue.

I will be using Montana Gold paints. The yellow and greys are the same that I used for my other Ursa.

Yellow - Vanilla
Lighter Grey - Wall
Darker Grey - Roof
White - Shock White
Blue - Signal Blue

I have all the templates for my sintra pieces drawn and cut out in poster board.



I just have to do the templates for the holster boxes. Here is one of my pew pews for size reference on the thigh template



I have sanded my gauntlets. I am going to dremel out the inside of the wrist a bit so I can get my hand through easier and then I will glue them together so they are one piece. Then it’s primer and paint!



My new wig arrived and I got notified that my 3-D printed knees have shipped.
