All is looking well here! Great Job! Keep in mind sniper plate is going to be added to top of left shin. -

Pyrates AP Build and Journey to The 501st
TK 2759 replied to Pyrates's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
For closing thighs, shins, forearms, and biceps I have Velcro... I use snaps for shoulder bells, and a snap for the biceps to attach to bells. Bells snap to bridges. As to the ab and kidney plate, butt plate is held to kidney by Velcro, snap between cod and butt. I use 4 snaps to hold 4 pieces of strapping, this crosses over in back, and is a suspender system to hold ab/kidney in place. Then I attach back and chest... for thighs I use a garter system, but they too are held by snaps. I use Velcro at sides of an/kidney to keep closed. Some troops may be an hour, but most are for 4 I've found... Depends on how long you wish to stay in armour for, I think... -

I'm from Toronto, but prefer Irish beers... Or micro breweries. -

Also, I read that in regards to strapping systems, it's not a requirement for Centurion, but as I said above, gives one peace of mind to know they have a suit comparably strapped like that of '77 -
Pyrates AP Build and Journey to The 501st

If there's nothing on the CRL about it, it's not a requirement, just gives you peace of mind that you have a screen accurate suit... -

Is this like one of those Where's Waldo? Things? -
Pyrates AP Build and Journey to The 501st
TK 2759 replied to Pyrates's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
Yea, I'm not too fond of this method though... -
I would have superglued Velcro the Eva foam, and then stuck Velcro where I wanted the foam to be placed... Makes it easier if you don't want it in there, to remove later.

Brattie's AP Build and Journey to The 501st
TK 2759 replied to Brattie's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
Not sure about shocking the masses that wear the binders... I still think you should try to find that store that you couldn't find, for the rare earth magnets. You'd be surprised on how strong they are, I've seen no other magnet, short of electronic, stronger. Why the long wait for your armour, when others have theirs in hand? -
Sentry's ANH Stunt Build [AP]
TK 2759 replied to Sentry71's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
A good set of brushes will go far... I used to paint led miniatures, for Dungeons and Dragons, if anyone remembers those. Lots of fine details, including eyes. Yes, I have a steady hand... All painting, no matter what kind, money on brushes is worth it! -
Pyrates AP Build and Journey to The 501st
TK 2759 replied to Pyrates's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
I believe so... That's the one that'd be hidden to the public eye. From experience, you'll never have to open the forearms, although I've only seen one TK do this... -

Pyrates AP Build and Journey to The 501st
TK 2759 replied to Pyrates's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
For ANH biceps, the top of them will be covered by the shoulder bell... May want to keep this in mind... -
I only knew of the doopydoo conversion kit... Shows what I know when it comes to blasters lol
-
I think all you need is one, but better safe than sorry... Doubt you'll get any scratches while trooping... I think most scratches come from the trimming.

Wait until it falls off, then add support later? -
