Ohld Vart's Legacy Mando FREE patterns thread
Pointoforigin:
I love that! Even if you took the original too long one and cut it to normal Fett length, the shape of the visor and the earcaps appeals to me.
Ohl'd Vart:
Thanks, guys. I'm going to keep the chin point, just shorten it up a little. :)
I've got to be careful where I go with these ideas, because as a former English outlaw SCA'er, I tend to lean toward medieval designs, and I don't want a cross-over or themed kit...case in point, here some of the original design sketches for the helmet:
As you can see, I was leaning towards the Celtic/Robin Hood themes in a themed armor set; some of these design elements actually ended up in my current kit, so I'll be content to keep it as-is....I'm going to transform my thinking for this new armor more in-line with Legacy (with maybe just a touch of medieval....) :)

Slade Kel (Marrok):
Some of the more medieval'er ones look like they could easily fly for a late-era Crusader, but I definitely think a little less medieval for Legacy. Out of the sketches, the one I like best is on the left of the third pic/page, the one with the sort of bearded look and twin antennae/RF thing-things. Also, I kind of like the idea of taking some influence from Segmentata for the armor. I'd say go with straps and buckles though, instead of the traditional laces, just so that it looks less cross-over'y.
