Few progress pics,main build done.........just doing the shoulder armour.
Both sides started off as an imperial tie pilot harness for the chest box.......chopped in 2.
Some grinding away and adding to,here's what I got.

Took delivery of some fodder figures today,back in contest mode after mandalore finished.

Is that mandalore the indomitable in your avatar I see.......got a few in storage,might improve one of them

[The Willoughbian]

Looks awesome. The pauldrons came out great.

[DarthDrew]

Very nice work, always inspiring to see your kotor era customs. I especially like the shoulder armor and robe you used. I just fixed up my Mandalore the Indomitable, need to make the Ultimate sometime.

[Luke Sprywalker]

That Jedi Rocks! Ba Dap- Ting! Seriously he looks pretty cool. Loving the sculpting work on Mandolore. Coming together nicely.

[benjani_1976]

Cheers guys,bit more tinkering here and there maybe but that's about it........pauldron sits on the robe just right,didn't want to fix them in place being as large as they are,would've seriously reduced movement so after securing the robe with a few stitches,sat them on top and let the chain links hold them in place.
Breather hoses are removable from their sockets,helps to remove the Pauldron
The battle axe was chopped at just below the head binding,profiled the sandtrooper staffs bulky end and drilled 2.5mm to accept the axe handle,profiled the other end into a point,might change that point later.

Nice, back on the front page. Daggone but you have been on fire this month. That Mandalore looks great.

[Bubba Fett]

Dude, outstanding work! I really like the battle-damaged cape - that is a great enhancement.

[mr.Jedi1977]

wow that is really well done!!! I too an digging the battle damaged cape but the pauldron came out  perfect !!!

[benjani_1976]

Hi guys,thanks for the comments.....and the fp tamer. Really cool project this time around,had myself a few moments of inspiration slotted together like the robes and pauldrons fitting,trying out new techniques.
I too like the tatty damaged robes,I like my Mandalorians to look like they've been in the thick of battle,chewed up by a sarlacc and spat out,dragged through a hedge backwards........then sideways

Does look a bit more warrior-like from how he started out eh?!!!
