I kinda see it.  I don't know if siding him with Death Watch is a way to go.  Unless there was something in CW.  I don't watch it so, I can't say.  But if you're going to do a Mando Kenobi, the armor colors should be subtle, nothing bold.  I imagine that if he's infiltrating the Death Watch, he may want armor that blends in to the group.  Nothing that stands out.  If this is just a concept of "What if Kenobi were Mando", then the sky's the limit.  Something I did on my Omega Squad in Mando armor was use Mandalorian sigils (think Mando letters/script in an artistic form, similar to what Muslims use in Islamic calligraphy).  Look at pg 10 on my threads.  I remember reading in different novels the mention of sigils on armor.  Just a couple of thoughts.  Good luck.

I like it  ;D

I think in Season 5 of TCW Obi-Wan does wear some Mando armour.

Great figure.  I have to make one of these for the collection at home .  Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.  I have all the parts.  After seeing yours it would be a sin not to.

It looks good, but I think his chest armor is slightly larger which makes his head look smaller. I don't know just my opinion, besides that it looks really good. Welcome to the yards. Can't wait to see more.
