Just to illustrate what Remo is talking about, the front picture shows it best.  Your right chest plate is ever-so-slightly lower than your left.  You just need to match those inner tabs together, and your good to go.



This is a masterful Jango.  Great job!

On the spacing.....I measured those things really closely, I think some of it may be the way I am standing.  Although if that is the way I stand then I will probably move the chest piece down ever so slightly.

I noticeed the same issue when I was looking at the pics.  I also noticed the right edge of the ab is slightly higher off of the girth, that is wht makes me think it is the way I am standing.  What I will do is measure it all again and then put it on and see if it still hits the same way just to make sure.  I want this thing to be perfect so I will nudge stuff around if I need to.

Thanks for the input it is appreciated.

You needed a good Picarding! I think we had the same issue when we were taking the pictures of your other kit. Any way you shake it...that's an awesome Jango. All that cold cast armor goodness...I still lust after those gaunts. I must get me a pair.

When I found the pic I had to do a double take.

The smudge on the mandible is how I knew for certain that it was me.  I think the artist did a great job on the pic and making the background and colors look so good.

Thanks for the feedback.

Ive seen several Jangos in real life, in several states, from several clubs and freelance guys. Ive seen even more in pix. For overall appearance (I still think you should dent your helmet  :P  8) ) yours in the very tops of my personal fave's and what I feel are the best appearing.

I know you take pride in it, and you should, and as it's owner you probably see and feel flaws in it others don't but, you have done very good work here!

Thank you very much......I appreciate it.

I hope I can represent as the best Jango out there every time I troop.  And yes I do see the flaws and issues each time I suit up.

I actually have another Jango helmet that is not finished out, and I have thought about trying to add a dent to it.  It is an Asok, and I know it will respond to heat........just have to get the nerve up to do it.  lol

It had been sanded and is ready for visor and paint right now.  If I get the nerves up to add the dent I will do it before I cut out the visor or add any of the paint.

All I ever wanted to do was to travel to far off exotic places and meet new and exciting people.........and then kill them.  So I became a mercenary, and I love what I do.
