This looks good to me. On the front page. Love the custom figure you made to go with it. Its helmet looks like a dead ringer for your full size one. Great work.

Absolutely bad a**, Devin! I love your refinements to your helmet and think it looks a good bit sharper. Now the figure you are to use as your guide turned out just right and tamer is right about your figure's head matching your full scale version.
If you can get your costume to match what your figure looks like, you will be a very proud mando indeed.

thanks guys.  I'm realy enjoying this project.  I've been in a creative funk here lately and the various projects I've had going has gotten the juices flowing again. 

Now I'm stuck on trying to figure out how to do the armor and gauntlets.  I think I might break down and just purchase some pre-cast parts from somewhere online.

but I do have one idea I will definately incorporate into my gauntlet.  I purchased one of those small pocket sized nerf guns today and took out the internals.  it'd be perfect to fit inside a wrist gauntlet to make an actual working dart launcher mounted inside!

Devin, that was so cool, I nearly peed myself.
That was a stratigic bit of progress to your costume and adds an important bit of functionality.
