Modding the AP supplied Thermal Det screws for Centurion accuracy... After I got EIB approval, the feedback I got for Centurion submission was a suggestion to swap out the black thermal detonator screws for more accurate ones. The accurate ones are rounded pan-head screws with just the straight slot (not sure how to describe it). I started having a look around some hardware stores for these screws which from what my research shows are brass screws, but couldn't find any. I then had an idea to mod the screws I already have by using some 2-part modelling clay, or green stuff, to fill in the screws and then create the right kind of screw slot, then repaint it. Pictures are probably clearer to explain... Below are the screws BEFORE I modded them...note the rounded centres... Filling the screws with modelling putty - some water on fingers helps to smooth the putty out: Then, after about an hour I used a flat-head screwdriver to carve the slot in the screws. Again, water the screwdriver tip to help get a smooth result. Carefully pick off pieces of the displaced clay... Once cleaned up... and finally, after painting... also, I e6000'd some scrap elastic to the backs of the TD clips to reduce scratching my armour when it's attached...just pick off any excess glue once cured for a neat, clean look... Centurion pics still to be taken, I'll post them up once submitted.

Congrats on your BBB. will be watching your build. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Very nice indeed. I like the smoke effect from the eyes, lol. I also found blu tac handy for plugging the teeth gaps to prevent overspray. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Think stuffing to the degree seen on Tantive IV boarding party. Also check out the pics in thefifthhorseman's Centurion application thread, his has some interesting TK weathering done on it. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Yeah one of you need to bring it home. Medal tally currently shows AUS = 1, CAN = 0. [emoji12] [emoji106] Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Are they the screws you got with the AP kit? I just got EIB with those but they suggest they be replaced for Centurion. Close, but not perfect. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Nice one. Keep that momentum going hey! Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Awesome! Thanks Sly for the feedback. It sure is my goal to get Centurion and has been from the very first cut I made for this build. Your suggestion on the T-det screws is noted and I'll source some more accurate ones prior to submitting. I am proud to be on my way to becoming another Centurion for Knightfall Squad. ...and as always, thanks again Q for your encouragement.

Look up the TK 1636 YouTube channel then follow the tute in the 'helmet lenses' episode. Works great1 Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

A really nice build. Well done! Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

The bucket looks great. Nice job! Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Thanks for the shout out mate. It's been a pleasure following your build and seeing you get your TK number. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

I think of it more this way. With a vast galaxy there must have been local suppliers/foundries for the armour and so appearances may be different/localised from one part of the galaxy to the next. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Am quietly following this build and so far it's looking great. You're braver than me, I used the AP painted-look decals. There's some great reference pics of frowns on screen used buckets in the photo gallery on FISD. Looking at those they weren't perfectly crisp straight lines; you could just do them free hand...like your traps and tears. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Congrats trooper, great to see you finally brought it home. Its been a long journey but you did a great job. Sorry to hear about your sister. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Awesome news, good luck! Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Awesome pics there! Yeah, who put that tank gun there? Ha ha. Trench pic looks cool too. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Great work on that notch! Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Cut 'em off. Cut! Cut! Cut!.... Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

I used E6000 and although only early days with two troops, it's holding up just fine. To separate the shins I tend to run my hand up in between the velcro strips to reduce the direct pulling apart force needed. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Another great read. My first troop at Oz Comic Con coming up this weekend so this is great motivation! Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk

Nice work. The gaps look fine. Sent from my SM-J100Y using Tapatalk
