Custom Mandalorian Armor Part 5

[kosmikaze]

TROPHY!

[mrmutrat]

fuaarrkk man the amount of money i would pay for that

[hasan5080]

The shoes fit in the best on the suit.

[xXBocephusXx]

@hasan5080 Haha, I know. =)

[hasan5080]

@xXBocephusXx Still...great work, mate.

[MarioThePlush]

Since u wore this one... Why don't u wear your halo helmets? Just curious...

[xXBocephusXx]

@MarioThePlush I wore this one because it was almost finished. I don't like to wear just a helmet or just one piece of armor. Also, I was showing the placement of the plates and things with this suit. 

[TheSharkshaw]

damn its frickin awesome bro i dont advise continuing with velcro use more straps and elastic than velcro itll fit better and not fall off ever so added on from the velcro add straps otherwise its awesome whats all the material of the armor made out of? and what kinda paint did u use to paint it

[furyjfn]

u should probably stop saying "its not perfect yet" you do realize that 99 percent of people cannot do 1 thing u made right? you are so good at what you do and your swag just resonates out of my computer screen

[xXBocephusXx]

@furyjfn Haha, thanks but I feel as if I can always do better.

[Ghost8919]

@xXBocephusXx Everyone says that. Not to say you can't do better, I mean, you've already shown your crafting skills FAR surpass our own. As Furyjfn stated, 99 percent of us can't do this. However, even though, your right saying it's not perfect yet (as nothing can truly be "Perfect"), you've come closer than most to perfection! You could make yourself a rich man one day with this skill :)

[xXBocephusXx]

@Ghost8919 Well, I don't entirely agree with you but I understand what you're saying and appreciate it. =)

[Omnipotent77]

Dude thanks cuz u really helped me with my visor situation, I'm making an ODST helmet like you did and the visor stumped me, thanks a lot.

[ik401796]

you have talent

[Frogger900]

I don't respond to many videos, but you have great talent! That costume is amazing! Keep up the good work and you could be working for movies doing set props and movie costumes. Hell, that's probably just as good quality as in the original movies. +Kudos! =)

[xXBocephusXx]

@Frogger900 Thanks.

[legofanlogan]

how did you get the armour on your body?

[gaminglordcr]

thats cool BRO!!! :)

[Breakfast221]

@Blexx88 Wait... Why were you looking there? O.o

[Blexx88]

Super cool man. Just great looking gear. Nice job.

Where was the cod piece?

[xXBocephusXx]

@Blexx88  Thanks, the cod piece is not done yet.

[lynnboy23]

you should've killed the crane with your bare hands like a true MANDALORIAN! lol

[XMedia12]

How about doing neo crusader mandolorian armor?

Just a little joke

[mothersday123]

Do you have a balaclava, or at least a neck-piece? I'd recommend it, as well as more emphasis on the armor itself; the dark under suit hardly does it justice. anywho, it's more than I'd ever attempted. Kudos.

[codkid94]

can buy that armor from you :O ?

[BRADSmediaTV]

what size helmet do u use

[yogiebear815]

The views on this video is over 9,000!!!

[dragomancer123]

"I am the best, always was" *Vambrace falls off*

[DaringWhitehawk]

What about the codpiece?

[SeAnStAmOn]

You need the jet pack

[xXBocephusXx]

@SeAnStAmOn Not all Mandalorians have the jet pack. I'm doing a custom one that doesn't.

[ARCTrooper90]

I have my own set of mandalorian armor and I was curious on how you attached your shin pieces. Did you use straps that went around your leg or is it just Velcroed on?

[xXBocephusXx]

@ARCTrooper90 I am using straps around my legs.

[madmedia370]

Idk.....but your kinda like a PIMP

[zaya257]

What was that animal in the background

[xXBocephusXx]

@zaya257 Haha, that's a Sand Hill Crane. They come up by my house a lot to eat bugs and stuff.

[thegamerdude112]

Whatever happened to the crotch guard?

[xXBocephusXx]

@thegamerdude112 I still haven't made attachments for that piece yet.

[ninjapocolypse]

hey i have a Q: can i use a heat gun with plastic and heat two pices together? let me know awesome job big fan!!!!!

[xXBocephusXx]

@ninjapocolypse I don't know. It would probably be difficult and not very strong.

[ninjapocolypse]

@xXBocephusXx o.k. thanks still big fan.

[rghgnmbk]

the moment u took off the helmet

u look like aaron stone xdd lol

[thedarknesscrap]

dudw make yur amrmor more thick and more buffier cause its to flat

[jordanrocksdj]

Out of curiosity, Is it possible to use polarized glass for the helmet, like sunglasses.

[TheDeathHeadMoth]

U r star wars god

[Antilles777]

is your name Drake on the forums?

Swear someone looks just like you on their, well all i can see is the helmet but it looks alot like yours...

anyways im antilles777 on mercs website

[Antilles777]

@Antilles777

nvm i think i ran into your body thread builds, you should update it as you have alot done on here,up to you,just saying

[Xxninja195xX]

AWESOME! I think i'll do this instead of the halo armor,seams less of a hassle.I was in marching band too =D but i hated concert band class and failed.XD

[amazonking7]

you should definitly consider going into the movie wardrobe. you could go fantasticaly far!!! good job!

[ninjapocolypse]

sweeet i love it you did a awesome job and well worth watching iam almost finishing my suite but cam is broken and i will need to buy a new one but looks great and keep up the awesome work.

[Antilles777]

mite wanna drill the plates to the cloths, im almost done with my armor but the velcro was just horrible, drill em make em perfect

[xXBocephusXx]

@Antilles777 Yeah, I might have to do that because the Velcro didn't meet my expectations.

[mandalorianzrkool]

it looks great good job!

[shawnmichalsHBK]

wow i took up like all of these comments since i am taking one more up might as well ask.....what could i replace a long range scanner with that is not like sticking up its like not an antenna thing but just attached to the helmet

[xXBocephusXx]

@shawnmichalsHBK I don't know. Just use your imagination.

[qcandymanq3]

Right now I am working on my own Mando armor, I have most of the armor done, but I am having a bit of trouble fiberglassing the helmet. I did notice though, your thight peices need to be either further up or bigger, and you need a codpeice. Other than that, I love how it's looking

[shawnmichalsHBK]

one last thing how much did it cost in the end?

[xXBocephusXx]

@shawnmichalsHBK I got my Velcro from Joannes craft shop and I think it was like $5 for a roll. I'm not sure.

[shawnmichalsHBK]

@xXBocephusXx can i get some of this stuff at hobby lobby?

[xXBocephusXx]

@shawnmichalsHBK Maybe. I've never been there so I don't know.

[shawnmichalsHBK]

how do they stay on?

[xXBocephusXx]

@shawnmichalsHBK The armor is attached to a vest with industrial strength Velcro.

[mandoman14]

Have you heard of the mandalorian mercs

[xXBocephusXx]

[masterodst1]

[xXBocephusXx]

@masterodst1  Thanks but don't worry about it. He's just jealous. =) He's already been removed from the comments and blocked.

[zip190]

epic

[FraserAidan]

looks awesome

[Scris101]

it seems naked without the jetpack! :P

[xXBocephusXx]

@Scris101 Yeah I know. I'm probably going to make a cape of some sort just to give it something. =)

[rem557]

i want to make one how do i make the helmat again i looked for some pepakura on google but nothing came up

[HALOFREAK31]

@rem557 try sculpting it or use cardboard and bondo

[rem557]

@HALOFREAK31 thats to much work and a chance of failing and having to restart

[xXBocephusXx]

@rem557 I made my own templates for this helmet and then put it together with cardboard. Then I covered it with resin and fiberglassed the inside. Then I smoothed the outside with bondo. I used WOF's templates for reference and they were very helpful. Just Google Wizard Of Flight's Mandalorian Helmet templates and you should find them.

[holygrayell]

nice XD the gun looks pretty good... But dude.. you said flopping around XD

[xXBocephusXx]

@holygrayell Well they were. I just don't think that way I guess. =)

[holygrayell]

@xXBocephusXx yeah... ive made a bad habit of it X.x if you look at my channel its quite obvious :p but yeah, great armor, nicely done, good job! :3

[Ice2Phoenix]

cool you should start on a reach helm for when the game comes out.

[Basurci]

Epic dude !!!!!!!! Need some update for armor xDDDDDDDD

[satowaffle]

that looks awesome!!
