The following will be a WIP post until the suits are completed. At that point we will clean up the page in order to make it easier to read and see the progress.
The 2nd week of June we decided that it would be nice to have suits that can be worn to more events and be a part of a group that was more involved with charity work than we can do solo and be able to share our enjoyment of building with other like minded people. Now with some help of members of the Mandalorian Merc members we are working as best we can to get our suits completed in one month. Here are some pics from the current state of the two suits being built.

The armor here was neon like the back plate you see off to the side, but has been muddied up so to speak. Neon colors were picked because of the association with poisonous animals in nature. This kit once approved for membership will be aiming for Animal Tamer Brigade.
This kit is based on volcanic planets of the Star Wars Universe. The colors will be burgundy, yellow, black and orange. This kit once approved will be going for medic brigade and a second option of mechanic brigade if a dual brigade is possible with all the ideas we have floating around. The armor has been given a rust outline on sides and bottom. The vest will be given a more dirty look in the future.
The helmets are 2-piece Jango Fett helmets you can buy off Amazon, eBay or other sites. These helmets can be used and approved with some modification such as sealing the seams, changing out the visor and painting different color. Here the helmets have been sealed, bondo added to the tops for strength and seal up the seam and ear caps replaced on one of the helmets that will not have a range finder.
