Found some time to finally start priming and wet sanding my armor. Still a ways to go with it but it's coming together! Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to finish priming the remaining pieces and the weaponry. . Also I realized I primed the pauldrons before I added the sigil to the right one so I'll have to reprime it after adding that. .

Test fit of the visor part 1. Honestly I kinda destroyed the visor material a bit getting it to fit so I'll be ordering a new welding shield to redo the visor (hopefully this time it won't have a greenish tint to it). But overall I'm happy with it. My dad tried on the bucket with visor in order to check if I could see his face behind it and thankfully it's dark enough you can't, but can still see out. Unfortunately the one I wanted has been out of stock for some time, so I'm hoping to hold off replacing this one until the good one is back in stock. . I still have to fiddle with the template a bit since it doesn't fit as snug as I would like. Once the fit up is complete I'll start priming and then painting which is the part I can't wait for. .

Almost done! Just have the bracers and hand armor left to sand and everything will be ready for priming. .

Working on my Mando chest piece and thought it'd be fun to show the before/after progress. Unfortunately my sandpaper is actually about dead at this point and I won't have a new set until tomorrow so I will have to wait till then to finish. The good news is I've already got the hip pieces and the right boot armor sanded. Getting closer every day!! .

I was trying to figure out if my new rifle was the largest prop I have and as it turns out, it's basically the same height as my Mononoke spear (which is my height) but it is taller than my bow which measures just under 5' after the recurve was put in and considerably longer than my massive sword from @armoryquest_1 which I love. . Though it's definitely slightly more fragile than my spear which is sturdy PVC pipe, I can't wait to run around with it at a con. I spent last night rewatching some of the Mandalorian to see how the rifle connects, and it's a leather strap with a clip that comes on/off the front leather chest strap, which means it just hangs down the back supported on 1 clip. Once everything is built I'm gonna try to mimic that for accuracy (and easy access). . #awesomecon2020 #mandaloriancosplay #starwarsmandalorian #mando #dindjarin #beskararmor #cosplaywip #princessmononoke #princessmononokecosplay #propmaking #propbuilding #3dprintprops #AwesomeCon #cosplay #cosplaying #cosplayersofinstagram #makersgonnamake #mandocosplay https://www.instagram.com/p/B_Xitq6j8zs/?igshid=1kvo3ressqp7m

Initially I was gonna wait till I had all the fabric pieces done, but the armor has been sitting in my room for a few days and I couldn't help myself. Look at all this beautifulness that came from @sixcreativ !! P.S look at that adorable baby Yoda ornament in the last image!! I'm in love with it. ^_^ . I decided last night to halt work on the fabric pieces and start on this. I will be dry sanding everything first then priming using a filler primer before doing a wet sand finish for smoothness. I'm gonna let my OCD run rampant with the sanding to make sure to get a super smooth finish prior to painting. Since AwesomeCon got postponed till December there's not rush with it which gives me the time to be OCD with each step, hopefully leading to a better finish. . I am setting up a page on my website that'll function as a walkthrough guide of sorts for the full build showing all the different steps and processes I use. (It's not up yet). I'll post a message once it's up if anyone is interested. . This is the way. .
