This custom marks a couple firsts for me... Ist custom using Slayer Design Studio parts & 1st attempt at painting eyes...

Basically, this character is the daughter of Jango Fett - not Boba's sister, but, his half-sibling from shortly prior to Episode1... pre CloneWars Mandolorian history states that Tor Vizsla created the original Death Watch & Jango Fett fought against them as part of the True Mandolorians. Vizsla's wife, Dyn'zha Drah'jr had disagreed with her husband's divisive campaign & sought to bring an end to his plans, by secretively divulging information to the True Mandolorian command. Jango had been assigned as her liason, in the course of these clandestine meetings, the two had developed a genuine bond & had soon found themselves swept up in a torrid love affair.
Upon learning of her pregnancy, Lady Drah'jr, fled to a hidden location & raised the child in the Mandolorian traditions... Sh'fett never met her father & Jango never knew of her existence. She is a formidable opponent & lives up to every expectation of the Fett legacy. Her armor colors have meaning, as many Mando's do... gray is for mourning, black for justice, blue for reliability & purple is for her father. Her helmet bears a "modified" Death Watch insignia, not to give honor to them, but it is the original Drah'jr family brand, that Tor Vizsla had borrowed from his wife's heritage to lend some "royal" credence to his cause.
Hope you guys dig her - THNX 4 lookin' & as always, comments, questions, critiques & suggestions R welcomed!!!

Love her, but with all removable helmets, it's just too big.

It's funny - b/c this Mando helmet is actually 1 of the smaller ones that came w/ the CloneWars Pre Vizsla fig... his head is even smaller than the SDS head I used & there is a 25th Cobra Trooper head underneath it for this custom b/c the Vizsla head didn't fit the SDS neck post - LOL - it does look a TAD big, but not 2 much in person & the rocket pack is also about 2/3 the size of a Jango or Boba unit (Eddieism) that I modded w/ Boba rocket & thrusters...

Looks great Sheep. Outstanding job, great backstory. Your backstories are always well thought out.. I think the helmet looks fine. I personally feel they should be that large because of all the tech inside. I figure if i put a prop helmet on it would look that big on me too. just my opinion though.

Love all the gear on her. Cool colour scheme too.

Her eyes are a bit "asymmetrical", but not bad for a first attempt. I can attest to the difficulty of painting 1/18 eyes. Your skills will improve with practice, and this is a good start. :)
