Good work, Dan, you've got some really cool drawings there! Drawing is a great hobby, never quit! I think I just might have to pick up the ol' pencil & pad myself one of these days, it's been forever since I've drawn anything... thanks, crappy high school drawing class  >:|

I have the camera coming in today, so once it arrives I'll take the pics, resize them, and post them here.  I might need to get pictures of some of the other drawings I've worked on since I was little.

I just dug out some really old drawings from when I first bought the Star Wars Episode 2 and 3 DVD's.  They're not the best drawings, but they're pretty good considering how young I was.

I just pulled out a piece of paper and designed an aqua-Mando.  I must say this one is better than the last few.  Now all I need to do is find my dad's camera and get those other pictures along with this one up.  I might just have to get a new camera, if this one doesn't show up.

Sorry guys, the camera is lost somewhere in the "dark abyss", or somewhere in my house.  Once something's lost here, it takes a long while to find it.  I'll try and search for it.

All this talk about a scuba mando makes me want to try one. I picked up a target gijoe item to help with this.

It looks like the camera is not showing up, so I'll give you a general idea of what it is like.  Imagine a regular Mandalorian.  First off, at the bottom rim of the helmet, the metal curves in towards it's neck to keep out water.  Leading out from two holes in the helmet are breathing tubes which link to an oxygen tank on his back.  Using his regular jetpack, I linked on some couplings at the bottom of the thrust ports to turn it into an under-water accessible jetpack.  The oxygen tank is then mounted on the jetpack.  Moving down, some of the leg armor is removed to leave a wet suit, but I left on two knee dart launchers for this Mando.  On each foot the Mando wears a flipper to be able to move better with the wet suit.  This is a general description of my aqua mando, though.  Sorry I didn't find the camera.

completely different to how I pictured it...  I was going to completely redesign the backpack lol.  i was also going to put some "shark fins" on the gauntlets to help with maneuvering under water.

That's a good idea.  You should try drawing up a sketch of that for the others to see.

I couldn't find the camera, but a camera phone is a next best thing.  Here are some of those older pictures, figure designs, and finally, the Scuba Mando rough draft!
