Ready to wrap myself in PLASTIC! ~ WTF build~
Geekin' replied to Geekin''s topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
No sir Walt, I still have to finish the Awesome belt, holster, do the gloves, Ab buttons, paint up the split rivets!!! sheesh don't rush this!! In all seriousness, I did get carried away once the white started going on I honestly got carried away, had a ball, and it was a super kit to build for my first TK. I'm feeling I'm a tiny bit tall for this kit though...I feel it looks much better on my buddy than myself. Hard for a trooper after they blew up two Death Stars!!! Forced to set Pizza for stun -

problems I have run into for my small frame, the butt plate, is for BIG butt people needs to be heated I think and brought in a bit, and I'm having an issue with the chest and back plates they ride very high, long torso not helping, possibly tweak the shoulder straps? -

I am NOT right!! normal is boring. So I was texting Walt today a "DAILY" thing..as I **cough** normally do( I'm lonely ) and Walt says " nice build thread" like he says every day!! a subtle hint to get moving, in all honesty true believers, I got carried away on the build from the last point. a few photos to show how it all happened. the shoulder straps, came formed on a curve, was kind of nice ,mentioned that they looked off....he makes a new mold!!! what a guy!!! -

Hi all, Quite a few days have passed, and I've been caught up getting a couple other kits in for approval but I got a small bit of work done this weekend. So far that's where we are. Walt thanks!!This kit is nice to assemble the customer service is a bit snarky tho...lol more work on it this week!! I'd be glad to get any specific detail pics just let me know. ( legal disclaimer ) this build is not valid in all fifty states, certain rules and conditions may apply. If you notice any swelling or rash, see your health care provider as soon as possible. WTF FTW -

I got a bit rushed, and I'm not very happy with my return edges, No problem with the kit it's the assembler in this case Maybe some more sanding, but the arms are together, working on the legs. -

Thanks guys, Kevin, thanks for the input, Great Armor thanks again, for all the hard work you put into this character in the beginning!! I believe you are right Brian got approved TODAY... Like I said up top..tailor's machine broke..was trying hard to get in there , should be done this week and in for approval. I have whole build thread on ACD .

I started a TK build a while ago, then my GF came to visit from out of town for two weeks, and then... THIS project became a priority, I figured I'd show why the delay. The first I.T.T. variant just got approval today, congrats to Brian Kim he has a great build thread on ACD as well. I was trying to get in first but cursed sewing and tailor technical difficulties slowed my efforts. This is a Fierfek helmet kit, and KWD Armor kit "TEST FITTING" pretty happy with the progress so far.

Recasting is BAD...mmmmk? posing the question, if Walt has the original....what does AP have? -

Geekin' replied to Geekin''s topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
So ...does that mean AP , and WTF are kissing cousin's?!! Lol Seriously, any question on the "origins" of this can be confirmed, by Walt, I think he still speaks to Gino once and a while.. -

I'm pretty lucky to chat with Walt on occasion, busy guy LOTS of kids more on the way God bless!! He's mentioned the lineage, that's just icing on the cake for me because I love the way the helmet looks! The armor looks great too! I had better calm down it's to late tonight to start into it and my Girlfriend will be here tomorrow and she'll find me sleeping in the box and ABS all around me!!
