I haven't really been lurking, but have had a huge interest in creating armour and joining up with the Mando Mercs for at least a year .....so here I am.
Thanks to MandoMaker 3.0, I have this whipped up as a concept:

Overall I am leaning towards Medium-Heavy armour type. I am an endomorph body type and think it will work best for me in the end. The concept above doesn't fully detail as clear as I had hoped but it's a WIP right? I think I may have an additional belly plate like I have seen other do. I like the look of it and don't want there to be the impression of "not enough" coverage. I'm a bigger guy but not huge, and want to have armour that suits me...no pun intended.
For extra detailing I have loads of greeblies. I work in aviation and have access to scrap parts everyday. I have a descent collection of instruments, black boxes, o2 masks and emergency equipment to pool from. On a side note, if anyone is interested, I may have some of these parts for trade/sale.
The main plating will be a mid-light green when finished, with a shadowed pattern of snake skin or diamonds in the paint. The biceps, thighs and shins will all be mid-dark grey. All armour will be weathered and battle worn. For the flight suit, I am leaning towards the scrubs method. I can sew, and am confident I can get long sleeves to work. The vest, I may invest in duck cloth.
Wish List/Game Plan:Helmet: Going to attempt the "bucket from a bucket" method
Armor: I have sourced a 4'x8' sheet 6mm sintra, just need to pick it up at the sign shop
Vest: Duck cloth
Flight suit: Scrubs
Boots: TBD (would love some moto cross boots)
Weapon: Carbine and Hold out blaster - In progress
I am still not 100% sure if I will end up with a basic mando or an Urban Assault/Recon build.
I look forward to suggestions/recommendations about my concept, materials or methods of fabrication!
More to come soon!
