Kendo:traditional Japanese Sword Fighting

I've always loved kendo, so i built this figure performing an attacking move jumping forward. I made sure it looked cool and accurate to real life.

I used dark blue for the keikogi(the shirt part) and the hakama(pants) to represent the softer materials, black for the men(head&face protection), the Dō(body armor), kote(gloves) and the tare(leg armor) to represent the harder parts. I added a little bit of white at the back of the head because they wrap a cotton cloth around their head and the Men doesn't cover up the back of the head.

Overall it was a really fun experience building this and I hope i could try kendo in real life someday.
