[Shockmatic's PLT build]

Excellent build!

 

QQ: Can you really position it over your shoulder? Doesn't the biceps and forearm armor get in the way?

[Request your EIB Certificate here:]

[TK-31225 Requesting EIB Status - ANH Stunt (DA Props) [677]]

Congrats Gareth!!

[TK92470 requesting ANH Stunt EIB status (AP) [676]]

thanks everyone!

 

i will continue to strive for accuracy.

[TK92470 requesting ANH Stunt EIB status (AP) [676]]

Thank you!

Even if I don't reach centurion, I strive to make this armor, as well as all my costumes, as accruate as possible. I will be making further changes to achieve this.

I will have to lose some weight to have no side shim with no gap.

As far as the blaster, it is a hyper firm, not a Hasbro conversion

Thanks Joseph! I get that alot most people are used to seeing me in my clone. But I have almost trooped my TK just as many troops. I think it's because there are so many TK and so few clones that people remember the clone.

 

You said you were going to take that e11 mounting on the pack idea. I found a picture of someone else that had done that when I was looking for reference photos for the pack. I thought it was a great idea too. I wish I could take the credit for the idea. I don't know who the trooper was that did it first.

Oh, I wasn't trying to rush things, I was just curious if any one else saw anything so i can fix it.

Unfortunately, I don't know if I can get centurion with this set of armor. Although I did have to make quite a few changes to it, I did not build it initially. All the seams are overlapping and not butt joined. So I would have to take almost the whole thing back apart to get centurion.

that being said, i have done, will be doing alot of the requirements for centurion in the interest of being as accurate as possible. 

However, I am thinking of making this armor only HWT, and then building another TK completely myself. Then I can assemble it centurion from the start.

is the 1/2 od tubing a metal or a plastic (like for aquariums)?

 

looking forward to getting started on this build

[Shockmatic's PLT build]

thanks!

 

i dont know the exact weight, but its not that heavy.

lets see how heavy it is when trooping with it.

 

i am going to add a handle to the top to make carrying it easier

 

the screw holes are all countersunk, so i am going to fill those and paint them also for a more finished look.

 

i did not add the piece that goes down in the back, i though it might interfere with the backpack

[Shockmatic's PLT build]

in my rush to post this before work, i mispelled PTL   

can an admin please correct that

 

thanks!

[Shockmatic's PLT build]

i finished my minimag last night.

wanted to get the pictures up, i will add some more details later.

 

i made this from all the great resources i found in the forums here. 

hopefully my thread will be helpful to someone as well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

major thanks to dashrazor

these images were extremely helpful

 

[Shockmatic's HWT]

Approved!!

[Shockmatic's HWT]

They aren't blue. They are the Valspar silver fox paint color mentioned in ukswrath build thread.

They do look more blue in the photo than they really are.

 

If they say something I'll send another photo showing the knob color better

i completed my Hwt and submitted the photos for approval. 

i submitted without a BFG, so the only part i have left is to make a plt minimag missle launcher.

 

here is some photos of my build.
