    That's the one

    Coming along nicely, before you paint just give all the parts a good wash will soapy water, some releasing agent can be left on the resin parts and reacts with paint

    Very nice, can't wait to see it finished

    I just bought a file kit, has different types of files in it, square, rectangle, triangle, round and so on
  5. gmrhodes13
    Nice progress there, looking good

    Looking good, I use adjusters on my thighs and also ab and back plates, makes life a bit easier to get everything sitting right at the start
  7. gmrhodes13
    I would use a file rather than a knife as you have more control, bit more work but worth it
  8. gmrhodes13
    Looks like you have been doing some research, well done looking coming along nicely

    You could trim a little more and also try to follow the angle of the frown
  10. gmrhodes13
    Both as a drill and slide around Looks a little much on the left but don't think you will notice it once all the rest are cut and painted

    I just used some 1/2 inch yellow soft foam, used a contact adhesive to hold it in place
  12. gmrhodes13
    I use this one for teeth and eyes, then get into the corners with either a square or triangle file And this one for straight cuts and for most of my armor trimming
  13. gmrhodes13
    I started with a small dremmel tip then finished of with small files to get right into the corners. Take your time with the ears and trim a little at a time, the less you take off the more you have left to play with

    Yes then the panic will set in, "oh no what do I cut first" Good luck with the build can't wait to see the progress
  15. gmrhodes13
    Good luck on approval
  16. gmrhodes13
    Can't go wrong with those

    Looks pretty good to me, I wouldn't even bother about revisiting your ears later, some of the screen lids gaps where huge, shouldn't be a problem for EIB or Centurion either. Good luck with the painting, just remember thin coats and let it dry out in between coats and the paint can wrinkle if it is too thick while it dries.

    I had the same problem with mine, just used a heat gun on it, I heated both sides then applied some pressure on the closure and worked fine. You should do some practice with the heat gun on some scraps of abs as there is a fine line between heated and melted. Some just use hot water I have not tried that method as yet.

    Will have a drink for you

    Looking good

    You could also rough the inner surface with some sandpaper. I use a contact adhesive to mount my velcro.

    Looks like there is an OFF missing and an arrow, oh oh another can of worms But seriously guys this was a thread asking what was needed for a hero E-11 blaster for Centurion, not a debate on what T track is best
  23. gmrhodes13
    Looking good
  24. gmrhodes13
    Magnets are a great help, I thought I was seeing things when I noticed the gaps on my bucket, don't worry yet the ears cover most of the gaps, just sand them a little at a time and not just the bottom of the ear the round top section can make a lot of difference too. Good luck and hope it ends well
  25. gmrhodes13
    Looking good, keep it up and you will be finished in no time
