I decided that I wanted to improve on the Jedi costume I made last year. One item I have wanted to make for my character was
a mandalorian inspired mask. I haven't quite determined my characters back story but it was something I wanted to include. So I purchased a Demagol style helmet from Forgeprops.

I decided on this style because it comes in two halves. Using just the front for the mask saves me time from having to cut it myself.

I created a rough sketch of several design ideas using Inkscape.

Design 3
I wanted the Jedi symbol incorporated in someway. I'm partial to design 3 though I may change the color scheme though its nice to have other opinions

I'll post updates on my progress as I continue this build.
