My first Mando kit

[The Patriarch]

haha i just thought about the multi colored visor. It may work if I add some tinting and they could end up like sunglassish might help when the sun would otherwise obscure your vision while hunting

[Choruk Diryc]

What about a layer of fine mesh like tulle... Im not sure if it would show through the tint on a visor (or act as enough of a tint), so you might have to add to outside... its the kind of stuff they use in bridal veils... And they make it in just about every color.

Ok so I have started to gather materials and tools to start my armor;
Over view

Boots(pre weathered from my dads time at the space center...seams fitting) 

Old catchers shingaurds. (hoping these will work cause that could same some time)

Customized Shotgun (as shown on my back in my armor design) used to "knock" on doors to let myself in when my targets not feeling hospitable

Tools; heat gun and rotatary tool.

all I've got so far let me know whats in those heads of y'alls and let me know what you think ^_^

All sports pads must be completley covered so they are not recogniseable. To be honest, you're better off making a complete new set for the amount of work needed.

[Hondo Karr]

Yeah, Remo speaks the truth, I would advise against the catchers shins. Although allowed via the "Mara Jade Loophole" who wants to get through ona technicality? I think you would end up with something much more attractive if you made the shins or used something in universe.

I was under the impression that "riot shinguards" were allowed, like Mara Jade wears, but not baseball shin guards, which are not what she wears.

The concept looks great, btw. Cool colors.

The style worn by the actress in that photoshoot are no longer in production. So, we have followed the 501st general guideline of "any similar style".

Personally, I would like to see that loophole pulled shut. But, it's going to effect several members negatively. Perhaps someone should propose a vote on the subject... 

[The Patriarch]

allrighty then i'll ditch the shinguards and make my own

[Hunter77]

I just bought that Heat gun and Rotary Tool at Harbor Freight !  LOL

[The Patriarch]

ok so I've decided to bring my colors back to where I was born and go New Orleans (black, gold, and white) colors well here it is. (the wierd light brown is supposed to be white idk what happend.)

[Hondo Karr]

Lose the fleur d'leaf and it should be fine. The colros are a nice tribute to your team, adding the sigil makes it a clear NO saints costume, ie theme kit, which are not allowed by CRL's.

A few years ago we had a member "Tiger Fett" for the LSU tigers. He has since gone MIA but, although he was approved under a much lesser CRL, he would have been required to remove the LSU markings to remain an OM. The colors as a tribute would have been fine.

Gotta keep them in the Star Wars Universe 

[The Patriarch]

[The Patriarch]

[Calo Ordoa]
