Ok first & foremost, I appologize for not updating sooner, I have been busy with ALOT of other thigns & rela life gets in the way from time to time...without further adieu, away we go...
So recently I've had this idea about giving my mando a little more "post-apocalyptic" feel than it already has (most recent pic below...PCC 2015)
I've come up with a new poncho type covering that has alot of fabric around my neck, but what I'm having a hard time with is a gunbelt that looks post apocalyptic-y. Russiya came up with an AMAZING design that looks like something that someone lost in the Jundland Wastes would wear, but I don't want to completely rip off his idea, so using his design as a base & pulling from some inspiration that I always seem to come back to, I came up with this design...
My original idea did not have the chest strap/bandolier that it does now, due to the weight, I had to add that in order to keep my belt in place just above my hips, however, after seeing Russiya's belt, I REALLY wanted to get back to my original idea. This new design incorporates several belts (this idea was borrowed from Starkiller's training gear costume) with the widest sitting on top of all the others & hanging low on my left side. The widest belt would also have ALOT of the mauser pouches that have become so prevelent amongst the mercs. Sadly in my new design I had to abandon one of my main pistols, but I am trying to figure out a way to incorporate it back into the new design.
I have more upgrades in the works which include:
- New vest (should be in hand tomorrow thanx to Sidi Renn)
- New leg wraps
- Trauma plates
- New gauntlets (built from the ground up)
- I may also be redoing my survival pack
I would love your feedback on my new gunbelt design & also on my current plans for my kit.
I'll try to be better about updating...thanx for looking!!!
