San Diego, CA Mandalores are popping up all over...

Hey, two rangy looking characters just left my house after a day's worth of armor-making. If they keep this up, they're going to give me some stiff competition. There are two new Mandalorian armor-maker apprentices in the SDFF. Great looking stuff, and ahead of schedule to boot. They did it all themselves with a day's worth of me cracking jokes and generally slowing their progress down considerably. Way to go, Mandalores. They can post who they are ....and be proud of it. Nice work, fellers.

 

Cool...sorry I couldn't make it up but <Obi-Wan> I have work to do </Obi-Wan> Can't wait to see it!

 

Jason took some pictures of our armor. It looks great, thanks to Armand for helping us out!

 

this stuff is cool!

and we only spent about 12 bucks each! hahahahahahahaahahahahahahahha

sorry the banking cvlan appears to be pillfering every other fetts wallet!

Anyway,im setting a deasline of middle of may to have this stuff done! I may be missing a few of the small soft parts, but may's a good date! This stuff is gonna rock!

 

I can't wait to see the new armor! And thanks Armand for taking the time to help them out.

 

sounds sweet, well have quite a group of low-lifes!

 

Armand told me about his, then future, armor apprentices last week at the Movie Marathon.

That's cool that people want to emulate his method of armor making, since it's more like "real" armor. And it's also very cool that he's helping them.

Now if I can just get back out to his place and go to the scrap yard with him and have him help me fabricate those parts for my next lightsaber......

(I love my new title! *grins broadly*)

 

hmm, may have to make a trip over to armands sinceits only like 20 minutes away!

 

Mara Jade, it was my pressure....er...pleasure having those two guys over.

Yes, yes, anyone who wants to need only coordinate a day with me to come over and goof off as much as you want. I've got almost any tool needed to make SW stuff. Except my lathe's motor needs an overhaul. But anything bashed, smashed, pounded etc. is easy.

 

hey! updated pics here!

Cool pics Jason! What is that triangular symbol that looks like it has a little palm tree in it?

 

Very Nice!

 

It is my "SD" mandalore squad symbol. YOu like? Donny and i were talking about changeing from the "lucky 7" fett circle design, and use this symbol for all SD mandalores.

 

Sounds good.

Oooohhh...now I too want Mandalorian armor!

 

Yes, I like the symbol! I want one! I'll have fett armor myself soon. So far I have the helmet, armor pieces, the wookiee braid, and the ROTJ cape (for Boba Fett.) Does anyone know where I can get the undersuit for the Boba Fett outfit? I also need the boots, the belt, pouches, and gloves. Eventually I want the jetpack too.

 

I too would like to join the SD band of the
Mand. I'm experimenting with a fiberglass
helmet. Linda if the undersuit can be a flight suit like the one jason wore to the
movie marathon,they have them at a surplus store in north park called bargain center.
I was recently there looking for one myself,
prices range $40-$70,they have belts also.
I was going to check Shoe Pavillion for boots or shoes.

 

Nice pics jason..yeah a fligh suit will do, or if youd rather go for a gray one like boba fett in ROTJ, Dickies sells gray work coverall that are prettyt clost to that.

 

I sent linda a Real Clean Copy of the SD logo...perhaps she will post it?

 

Here's the logo:

I love the symbol, but I think 2 changes should be made to it:

1. The palm tree is much too obviously a palm tree. I think the "bend" in the trunk gives it away.
2. The number 4. It should be changed to some random aurabesh symbol or something else. I believe that's what the "7" in the real logo actually is, not a "7" but a symbol instead.

 

OOOOH CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!

Click her if you dare

 

Awesome costume Jason! I can't wait till I get mine!

 

Like I said; you need to eat more.

 

Hey Jason,your outfit looks intimidating are
you going to wear it tomorrow,sans pistolas?
or were you going as stormtrooper?

 

Wow...that stuff looks sweet!! Too many choices for my next costume project...
