    Default Rhyen Skytracker's Mando Costume

    Here is my first attempt at making a mando costume. I have most of my armor painted except for the knees and back plate. I am still waiting for my helmet to get here, it should be here any day now. Here are pics of what I have so far. (My wife says it looks like a Hot Wheel with a racing stripe.) LOL

    Looks good! I like the color combo ...now you just need to get in a fight while wearing it, get a little battle damage

    That is why it still looks shiny and new, I do get in fights but I am good enough that I don't get hit. hehe I never have understood that. If you take good care of your armor and are good enough to not get hit by blaster fire then why is everyones armor all beat up? LOL

    Boba Died? He fell into the Sarlac, but certainly did not die. The EU tells us so.

    As for the beat up armor, the Mandies are very family oriented. They would take parts of their fallen family members' armor and wear it in remembrance. So, they were good enough not to be hit, but then did get hit, died, and now their kid or cousin or brother or mom now wears that bit of armor. Some pieces could be generations old.

    I'm working on a helmet with a backstory lightsaber burn given to my ancestor by Darth Malak back when we called him Alek "squint" Squinquargesimus.

    hmm...neat I need more exposure to EU.

    I hate to side track but can't help it....Boba..armed with a blaster jumps to point blank range of Luke. Dumb! Lucky to not loose his arms. Oh wait! Then he binds Luke who is not only armed with a sword but a lightsaber. After two of the most idiotic attempts a blinded Han Solo hits his jet pack and he's off to what many would believe was his death.

    I guess mando fans are all about EU..lol

    Cool story on the armour. I did quickly browse wookiepedia on the topic but not enough time to get into it.
