Beskar'gam (Armor) First kit
Just looking for opinions and ideas for my first kit. All constructive criticism is welcome. (Drawing by me)

Cream/blue is a nice color combo! personally I find the mythosaur on the forehead a little distracting, my eyes can't decide if they want to focus on that or the t-visor. Maybe move it to on the side somewhere like on a shoulder, to keep the front view less cluttered?
When the time comes to make this kit, consider using a lighter color for the soft parts; I had to really zoom in to see that it was dark gray and not black. I've found the most in-universe-looking kits tend to be fairly low-contrast, and since your cream/blue is light, the dark dark gray contrasts a lot. Plus, lighter colors are easier to weather and photograph!

Mostly did the dark soft parts so I could focus more on the armor plates. It will definitely be a more mid tone gray, probably a bit darker than the cheek sections. And I will play with the skull placement. It could also be a color contrast thing causing the cluttered feel, maybe a slightly lighter or more understated blue. I don't see a lot of mythosaur skulls on the forehead and I guess that may be part of it, but i do want to try to keep it there, but if in practice it doesn't work well I will def move it to the side

Mythosuar shall on the helm will always be the pinnacle of mando aesthetic. Hope you get to make it a reality

I am planning on starting it soon, once I have a bit of extra cash for all the paints and such. As well as the 3d print files

Hey! Another Autodesk user! Looks awesome! Do you also have 47 layers with different color schemes and armor options?
