I can do that. Never really seen the holster as it was attached. The other pics are attached but at the beginning of this tread as these pictures were showing the correction in the thigh utility belt and the knee plate which were the last of the corrections requested.
-
Finished the corrections and here are the updated pics
Finally fixed off white thigh utility and knee plate as requested....should be the rest of it as suggested...Let me know
thanks and sorry for taking forever to get pics up on the last two corrections
-
I have the pics of the finished armor will attach as soon as I can get on my main computer
-
Lol. I know life gets in the way sometimes. Busy troopin and goofing off
-
Ok. Finishing this up. Will post pics this weekend to finish this. Got side tracked and for that I apologize
-
Got a response from Paul parts will be on the way.
-
Ok. Issue with this. Would like to take pics and post up but I'm going under the surgical knife again on Thursday. Will be unable to wear armor for about 8-10 weeks. Anyway I can take pics of my parts and post them to get centurion? Still going to make some part swaps but from what I see in CRL not an issue for centurion just a thing for me to make armor pop that much more. Let me know what you all think.
-
I'm done with my build just haven't been able to wear armor for a bit. also I am attepting to replace the knee but haven't been able to get a hold of TM (Paul) for a replacement part. Anybody have a line to him?

I completely agree with you Sven that centurion should be earned but I also think the more info that is out there may help another along the way. If all of the treads were perfect then nobody would see a mistake. Then they wouldn't think need to make sure I don't mess that up. Well at least that is how I learn by looking at pics and talking with other members after reading bunches of deployment treads. All of which have improved both my eye for things and my ability to build. One thing I can say is my build good and the bad is all my work. Nobody did this for me so it is my belief I have earned this right to at least post up in centurion. So I have a few things I did wrong. Easy to fix and as I have said may help others along the way...regardless if I make centurion or not.

Thanks locitus for the assist. My opinion back at Dr Sent...thanks for your 2 cents. I know where the reference pics are and if there is a mistake I always ask for reference to help those who look at these treads after I'm done. Being productive and encouraging others to improve vs your methods.

All extremely easy fixes. All I need is a reference shot of the side of the knee ammo to see what curve is supposed to look like. Will post pics of the blaster with D-ring (PS wasn't overlooked and I had to add for my EIB). Belt is really easy to move but I'm at a loss on where to place the drop boxes. I have moved the three times now and keep being told move them. In or up???? Can't seem to grasp where they should be. Any pics which would help. I have the belt pic but for some reason can't seem to visualize this one. Either way I will get fixes done next Sat and post up adjusted pics. Will add blaster pic of D-ring to top pics. Thanks for the advice and help with pics guys.

Didn't realize I had to hold arms up. I posted pics of the stuff from the EIB tread showing those items.

Well I have no issue redoing things on builds. Sometimes you just lose sight of something or plain miss it. Reason why I do this so I can have my armor picked apart to make it look better. FYI this is fun for me. I am 1 of 11 SWAT level officers on MEPD. I found it odd there was so many Centurion builds out there. Almost didn't bother because I was thinking it was too easy. I was torn apart to be SWAT just about redoing most of my build. The fixes asked here are time consuming but doable. I would only asked for respect in the way you make suggestions. Most of the time applicants spend a lot of time and have pride in their work. Calling a build messy or sloppy isn't the best way to make a suggestion. Don't take that the wrong way from me. I personally don't care if it makes my build better. Truth hurts sometimes but that is the goal I volunteered to go after by posting here. Can't take the heat don't post for EIB or Centurion. I only posted here in EIB first out of respect and I believe I'm being held to a centurion level in the EIB tread. To those thinking about doing this. It is worth it and take any suggestion/comments with a grain of salt. They are after all taking the time to help you improve. That is what this is, A way to make your armor one of the best in the legion.

Still working on this. Had back surgery which put mods on hold. Will post up pics when I well enough to retake pics. Corrected the thigh utility Moved/adjusted belt. Repainted bucket in a neater method. Put correct split rivet in the cod piece. Some other stuff im sure I forgot.
-
if you have the TM button plates then remove the vader dave buttons, fill the holes, and paint in accurate humbrol colours (French blue and dark admiral grey)
Is that a required for centurion? I have some extra TM button plates but not sure I want to remove the buttons. Those are not vader Dave's but similar ones I made. Reason is not sure I can get the circle right when painting.
-
Well I'm with you on that. Parade or battle. Not half and half. Just doesn't make sense to me. Well. Making changes to armor. Only thing which maybe slow is replacing the knee plate. Will post up as I fix. ? Vader dave buttons are good or should be painted flat? What's the census on this?
-
Does anyone know where I can find the split rivet for the cod piece?
-
That makes sense for the width. One last ? What about the weathering. How much if any should I do if any for centurion? Is there a tuturial tread for adding weathering to TK builds? I know this is an EIB tread but if I'm heading there any ways I might as well do the fixes on this build for that level. Whole reason I built it was for that as I am already EIB.
-
Ok I posted the pic of my am thermal Det. Will find the TM one and post it. Late post last night and was tired. That's why it looks different.
-
No offense taken. Many times you can't see if your building it. The pics help out a bunch. As far as the repaint for the bucket; is there a specific distance for the tube stripes to be down from the top? I was going for a less difined look on the bucket. If your saying it's too messy then I can try to make the lines cleaner. Last time I air brushed and you all said it was too clean???? Confused on the right mix then. Guess I went to far with the hand paint. oops. The knee plate is definitely not TM. I can always contact Paul and get another one. The trim on the buttons was a fix I just plain forgot to do. If I mixed up the hand guards that was just a plain no brainier there.
-
LOL. You guys are great. I only need nod so I can post this armor up for centurion, which I don't have. As far as TM. It is a full TM and I have a 1 mm kit for TD. They are the same. This kit is a 1.5 mm so a tad thicker. I did compare the kits to ensure they were the same other than just thicker. Buttons are blue and grey but can't seem to get the color to come out in the pics. Not a photographer by any means.
-
The thigh ammo belt is just odd in the pic. That's as low as I can go on the thigh ammo. The belt set up is the same as my last EIB submission which passed so not sure how that would be off Either way it is only velcro on them so I could move them up easily enough. I do it that way so i can pull them to make a HWT set up. Thanks on the hand painting. Took forever.

TK-7435 Requesting ANH Stunt Centurion Status [--] [TM]

Strapping is normally worn in a different way. Had swapped it out to use it a different way on an other costume. Will put it back on after correcting the stuff. Ill edit the top post and post the pics there. I noticed my back plate was shifted as well which isn't normal for this armor. So a retake of pics should fix that.
The side shims were added and can be removed to give the old appearance. I was experimenting with them.
