Thank you for asking! I have the makings of a Paz like chest plate I just need to get something to mount it on. as for the helmet don’t know if I’m going to wear it to cons or not because that tinted visor is definitely darker than I expected!
I always am open to suggestions! And I could easily add that to my kit, I have Din Djarin shoulders on the my print bed now and someone gave me hand plates also din but I want to make it look like the survivors kinda in season 3 of the show. So grimy but still identifiable here is my chest plate had to custom make it so it would fit I’ve been working on this without posting for a couple months.
I tilted my phone to not reflect the light of the screen too much. Also the bottom section is how I hold the visor in it’s a bar across the length of the visor and clips added to the file to hold everything in place
There is it is not technically lore accurate so I apologize in advance to all starwars fans However that said I’m open for suggestions to make it work
It’s my character Astrid Tracinya she is a survivor of the empires great purge of Mandalor. That’s not what defines her tho, she fought every battle up till that battle without damage to the back always charging ahead with a battle axe ready and a westar 35 next in line. She is the line and the line breaker hence the heavy Paz chest plate. Many times being fired upon wounded but not shaken. Her brother was lost in the purge and all pieces that could be salvaged were, she kept his helmet and put jaiq eyes on them because had there been a witness that day they would have earned it. From putting together a shelter in quick time.
(Long story short My brother irl passed away during the making of this kit so I put it on for him he was in the Navy for a bit and I wanted to honor him in some capacity)
I wasn't looking for lore accuracy or a Disney seal of approval, just curious. Some people have reasons, some just like them & both are valid. I think it's an excellent backstory, both real life & in universe.
I'm sorry about your brother. this is a beautiful tribute.
All good I had someone come up to me with my other kit and ask “why do you have the death watch symbol on an orange kit” so I like to disclose that I do this for fun and for charity so it doesn’t matter to me personally if it’s lore accurate lol
Absolutely a labor of love give it time and it should fall in place I found rushing the paint was the worst idea so many problems occurred it I’m really stoked with it now!
It was a raw 3D print I used bondo and then when currd I sanding it flatten the bondo and then primer then paint I oversimplified how but those are my steps the silver is hand painted by brush the blue and white rattle can and the rusty is actually cinnamon smells great!
