  1. Have come to the point where I can try a few things on. Back and butt held on with tape from the inside. The belt is from my old armour.
  2. Indeed there is, and I have been looking, reading and bookmarking, since before I ordered the kit Also there are the Blueray snapshots to look at Belt have been redone and I have tried my hand at making some bicep hooks with the heat gun...NOT easy!
  3. Hmmm yeah. Didnt notice that. I measured my belt length from Stukatroopers build on Flikr.
  4. The problem with the lenses, is that the lens itself have an uneven surface... But maybe I shouls just leave some of it unglued, so I get that airflow you are talking about.
  5. I'm trying to make some lenses that fit to the eye sockets in the helmet, and then glue them in using hot glue, but I cant seem to get them to sit flat. Any advise??
  6. Ahh yes. A-10, the flying cow
  7. Thanks guys Aaand its ready and waiting
  8. Hmm... seems I'm stuck while waiting for the E6000 to cure. Lets have a look at the to do list. Add inner and outer strips to both forearms(Why didnt I get 8 more clamps!!!) Attach the sides of the sniper plate Outer strips on thighs, shins and biceps Attach ammo pack to thigh. Snap plates all around Strapping. And the belt. Talking about the belt, I have looked around in the Centurion section for some info on where the buttons should be positioned and how big the 45 degree should be cut. Does it go from the ammo belt to the canvas belt, like on the right in the pic, or is it a bigger cut, like on the left(the pencil marks are only there for illustration). And the buttons. Again, left or right is the right choice?
  9. Have you at least tried looking at the links people have given you? There are plenty of alternatives in them
  10. You'll regret buying Rubies. It will never get accepted, unless you spend almost as much time modding it, as you would building your own.
  11. Need an extra opinion on this. To mee it looks wonked, but is that okay for a shin? Its the left shin and the back strip isnt glued yet.
  12. Gluing inner shims going well. Lover body done and drying
  13. I've tried theese before, so at least I know they are good, but really... Thats just robbing people. I think I gave what, 10$ for 30 magnets on trooperbay! Oh well... Aint building if I'm complaining. Break is over, time for coffee an E6000
  14. Reinforcements have arrived!! 20 snaps, rivets and rivet gun, straps and elastic,20 assorted clamps and 34 magnets. Also 2 whoppers, 2 cheeseburgers and 8 hot wings. Time to glue some stuff together...after "lunch"... Oh and the magnets are "BLEEEEP" expensive when bought in a hobby shop!!! That lot cost me roughly 400dkr (=70$)!!
  15. Here is what I could find from various tours. Some are my old units and some i have traded for.
  16. Hehe... already drank a whole pitcher
  17. So I found out!! 36 magnets and 16 assorted clamps, is FAR from enough... Just waiting for the stores to open now.
  18. ahh yes, I will get right to it. Thanks. Your help have been greatly appreciated And yeah, as you know I want Centurion But the first step, is to get it done by the Troop next weekend, so I have to work fast. Luckily I work better under pressure, than when I have plenty of time
  19. Whew! What a busy night, but I think I'm done with the cutting and trimming for now. Need to pick up some extra supplies today, so I can get the gluing up to speed. Only thing I havent touched yet, Is the ammo belt and drop boxes. I'll do theese when I get my canvas belt and Holster from TM. But let me know what you think, and please do tell if I have missed something.
  20. Thanks Already removed the return at the front, but think im keeping whats in the back and making it fit with the other piece.
  21. And cut it is. Sits perfectly now While im at the forearms, is there a special way with the return edge here? I have seen some have left it like this, and others have removed it. I was thinking of trimmind the ends, so it "melts" with the other piece...
  22. Yeah think you are right. And after looking at the pictures, it really do look like I need to make the cut.
  23. Did that right before I took this picture, and it didnt really pinch me, but still felt like I could use the space... I'll tape it back up and take a picture.
