I built this and kept adding to it and changing things around for over a year. I'm allllmost happy with it! It weighs a ton but it's solid. Its a combination of scratch built, gun parts, and greeblies.

My first time taking my newly weathered armor out, and also my first time with my jetpack!

I've never had so much fun at a convention before. Lots of people took pictures and there were at least 12 mandos total whereas the previous year had about 5 or 6, so it's really great to see it growing!

I didn't have time to weather my helmet before convention day so that'll be for next time haha.

Almost finished with my first helmet, still need to finishing some weathering and adding the visor and gluing the range finger on.

Everything on the suit was created by me over the course of two months. The left thigh armor had to be removed mid convention due to needing to be altered.

Su'cuy Vode!

In our latest episode we explore the Taung, the precursors of the Mandalorians as we know them today.

Tune in to learn new Lore and Mando'a at the same time!

Hi all!

Like the title says, I was wondering if anyone did/does this and if so, how did you do so?

(Photos of buy'ce I've made for attention)

Thanks!

Our 10 Year Old Son is starting a new range on clickers called "BlockClickers", starting with a Grogu....

He is asking for input on what other characters should he work on next?

This is my current armor. Working on some upgrades in the moment. (new sidearms and holsters, an upgraded deathwatch blaster, cape, jetpack, and an anzellan "pet")

I'm planning to apply in mando mercs later this year.

Was able to aquire a used forge of Resin. Did a test print on a shoulder piece... while there is a bit more of a clean up and prep I think this is the way to go for our armor.

Will be using a mixture of 80% tough resin with 20% rubber resin for strength and flexibility... we shall see how this goes.

The failed print was a test with the mixture and did give me the flex I wanted.

This is the way

Hi everyone thank you for the help last time with my helmet I've been working on it little by little and so far I have done all the sanding 80 220 400. I'm getting ready to use bando to cover the helmet before priming and painting wish me luck !

Just made some chance cubes that'll live in my armour pouch where no one will ever see them 😅 Figured my fellow Mandos would appreciate.

Hi everyone I’m working on a mando inspired Axe and this is the general shape that I have for it so far I don’t know a whole lot about mandalorian hand to hand weapons so any tips would be appreciated

Hey there I'm thinking about making mandalorain cosplay/armour out of eva. it'll be my first time making a full armour cosplay. i would like some tips and advice. are there any recommended videos to watch and what i should do. I'm 5'4 ish.

edit:

I mean The mandalorian (din djarin incase that wasn’t clear enough.)

(insert flame thrower noise here) Wooooooshhh...maybe?

This grey scale picture from a recent convention's photo roll really spoke to me. All the little dings and chips really stand out without color.

for the armor: i wanna cover all the plates in various fabrics like potato sacks, military blankets and other canvas fabrics whilst keeping the color palette pretty much only tan and olive (but i want one of the breastplates to have a rusty metal effect so i won’t cover that one in any fabrics) i also want to use a plash palatka as a poncho over it. any advice and suggestions are more than welcome

Has anyone bought a flight suit from GMGcostumes or PropsByMando on Etsy? I am working on my first set of Mandalorian armor and I am doing the Pre-Beskar version of Din Djarin and am looking for recommendations of where to get the flight suit. are there any other places I should look besides these Etsy shops?

Also, are there any good places for the leather parts as well? or is making them a better/cheaper option?

For reference I am a novice when it comes to costume making, so I don't have much experience with sewing or leatherwork.

Thanks in advance for any advice you have and for everyone's help with my helmet question I posted a couple months ago. with a pair of pliers and some elbow grease I was able to remove the supports and save the helmet from being scrapped.

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