Hi folks, I've been a member of the Mandalorian Mercs for a little over two years now. I love trooping in kit, but I think I'm ready to add a face character to my line up.
I've been a fan of Kyle Katarn since the first Dark Forces game and I really love the Qu'Rahn lightsaber. The plan is to make a DF2 Kyle, complete with saber and bryar pistol. I'm hoping to be done by mid-summer, or sooner. I've already started on the lightsaber and I don't imagine the rest of the costume will be too difficult to finish.  |

Awesome. We definitely need a Kyle Katarn. I loved playing the games also up to Jedi Academy.

I'm so excited. I cannot wait to see your Kyle Katarn!
Please let me know if there's anything you need for your build. My superpower is finding things on the Internet and I'd be happy to go in search of random fabric or reference pics.  _________________ Docking Bay Commanding Officer

Thanks guys! I'm looking forward to trooping with all of you, rather than trooping adjacent. lol
Just finished a static version of the Qu'Rahn lightsaber with plans for electronics in the future, and the bryar pistol is being 3D printed even now.
Emily, if you could find some good shots or info on Kyle's boots, that would be awesome. I think they're tactical boots with spat covers, but that's the extent of my knowledge on that piece of the costume. |

I LOVE the Bryar Pistol. I love that look of Kyle Katarn. I didn't care for his look in Jedi Academy but appreciated the fact that he was a seasoned Jedi Knight in that storyline _________________ Blue Ridge Base CO 2013-2018

Agreed. I'm happy with Kyle in anything, but the DF2 Jason Court cutscene Kyle is the quintessential Kyle to me. I love the balance of scoundrel and Jedi. Blaster in one hand, saber in the other. |
