Clint, that mando rocks!  I love the bare arms and I love the hinged shoulder pads! that's an awesome idea!  Please reveal how you constructed the hinge.  Is it just a piece of cloth or something? 

I'm realy racking my brain over what to do for this contest, or even if I can do something...

Strips of plastic from a blister pack, Devin. With praise like that coming from you, I must have done alright.
Thanks, buddy.

well guys I litterally just made it home from my summer away.... only to find that my parents have completely destroyed my customizing space in my room.
apparently they turned my basement room into a spare bedroom while I was away and decided that all my "junk" was too cluttered and threw everything into boxes and shoved it all into my closet...

keep in mind that I am 24... albeit I am living at home... and it was cluttered... but still, they new I was coming back!

long story short is that I have NO IDEA where all my customizing supplies have wound up and it'll take me a month to get things back together the way I had things before.  Not to mention I've got a ton of other more important things to do (like finding a job)...

so yeah...   I won't be able to participate in the contest, or do any customs for a while... but I will keep following the awesome work everyone is putting up!

Sorry to hear that, buddy. I have no doubt that you would have been a contender for this one.
Goodluck with the job hunt and stick around.

Ohhh, that sucks Devin!

I have begun mine, and should be finished by later this evening!  I even have the backstory all worked out.  Just have to let this paint layer dry, put everything together, and get some pics snapped.

Money has been pretty tight, but I am hoping I might have something for this contest.
