Also forgot to mention but whether hand painting or air brushing if you use a coat of white first it will help fill any gaps in the templates so when you paint the blue it shouldn't run into any gaps

Are you using on mobile or computer, I am having no issues with computer. Imgur recently changed how their mobile app works and I did try it once and couldn't copy the direct link so stopped using it on mobile. I see a lot of others using Flickr https://www.flickr.com/

Hello and welcome aboard, looking forward to seeing those BBB photos soon

Using an airbrush would be fine but you would need to make templates so the lines look hand painted. A trick with black lines is to go over your straight lines with a permanent marker and making them look hand painted. To give you and idea of what you are aiming for here is a look at Dave M hand painted decals.

Very nice, yes handle gloss black, you could also add some silver here If you are going to weather use silver in places (not T-tracks or handle) and brass to the scope, but in moderation
-
Yes ATA's wait times have definitely reduced with the influx of other armor makers, when I first purchased the wait time was 6 months, it went up to 9 months the following year but now down to around a month.

TK-61199 requesting ANH Stunt Centurion Status (RWA) 497
gmrhodes13 replied to Yacorp's topic in Request Centurion Status
Nice work trooper just a few suggestions before the DO's get here: Appears your belt is on a little bit of an angle, could be the weight of the blaster, usually remove for photos You have some return edge which could be trimmed on the neck, also the larger tab on the shoulder straps could be trimmed Your drop boxes are not quite aligned with the end of the plastic belt. Also you have some return edge on the end of the belt, button covers could also be closer to the end of the belt You have a gap between the butt plate and kidney, V taps can help keep this in alignment. Kidney is just overlapping the ab plate, also looks as if the "Han" snap could be closer to the corner but a close up image could help see this Could you also post the following images. Close up of front of the sniper plate Interior strapping Close up ab/kidney rivets Close up "Han" snap Good luck with approval -

Look at you go, great work, I'm sure you'll be one step closer -

gmrhodes13 replied to Harder's topic in Request Expert Infantry Status
I did LOL , the corners of the plastic belt has to meet the edges of the fabric belt as per CRL The corners of the plastic ammo belt shall be trimmed at a 45 degree angle that that meets the outer edge of the cloth belt. -

gmrhodes13 replied to Harder's topic in Request Expert Infantry Status
Great work on the updates. Normally the elastic would be positioned closer to the rear of the shoulder straps so it helps hold them down, either just in front of the back plate or just behind I also noticed your angle cuts on the belt don't meet up with the fabric belt width, you may be able to remove a little plastic from the end of the plastic belt The corners of the plastic ammo belt shall be trimmed at a 45 degree angle that that meets the outer edge of the cloth belt. Note button cover closer to end of belt -
Having skinny hands I have a little foam inside on both sides so it helps keep it central to the arm so not as much of a gap on one side

TK-61199 requesting ANH Stunt EIB Status (RWA) 1016
gmrhodes13 replied to Yacorp's topic in Request Expert Infantry Status
Nice work, should help prevent butt plate separation -
Normally there is some room around the wrist area, to trim you just want to be able to get your hand through no more

gmrhodes13 replied to Harder's topic in Request Expert Infantry Status
Nice work trooper, a couple of suggestions before the DO's get here: You ab plate is overlapping the kidney You have a small amount of paint on the gum area You could add another coat of white paint on the thigh ammo strip rivets In a couple of your photos the drop boxes don't appear to be in line with the end of the plastic belt Right back shin is not completely closed, Also you have some fabric hanging down under the belt at the rear. You could also bend the shoulder straps a little so they sit flat on the backplate. TD is a little high on your belt, this could be brought down. You may also want to bring your biceps up a little and your forearms as they are hitting your handplates Could you also add some other photos: Front sniper plate close up. Inside thigh ammo strip connectors Right side of blaster Close up of handguards Close up "Han" snap (top right corner of the ab plate) Close up bottom ear screws Good luck with approval
