Ok like i said time for the shins same cut lines as the thighs 10mm and flushed straight through at the base

last bit from the weekend had a good go at the TD, need to clean my edges up and double check all the required dimensions before gluing

bit of front edge score and snap going on thighs done shins next

just keep trimming, just keep trimming

hi ya , afraid i have a avonos bucket but that dent looks consistent with all the other threads i've been looking at and the rs reference shots in the gallery

Nice we will have to stay in touch and swap build notes just started to rough out mine, slow and steady like

i was told the same thing a few weeks backs got offered a switch to PVC if didn't want to wait, but held on and fortunately my armor kit bundle turned up last week so assume the abs is now in but i am UK based

ok worked through on the wrist ends of the forearm parts, returns where done are around 6 MM for starters will take another look once assembled just nervous about the right inner forearm does any one have any tips for first layout this is RS armor so no cut lines

right so it begins working on the forearms first bit of head scratch with labeling but all round the right way now clearing wrist returns then working on the sides for sizing

Then i realized i had miss a couple of bits oh and my blaster so here's a pic of the last bits so now the real work begins

Right now it gets difficult its BBB day obliviously it time for the standard box picture I then spent the next hour laying it all out

right helmet electronics done , just added a bit of foam backing to ukwraths brackets

Minor updates this time i have re painted the frown adding those two little teeth either side and and positioned all the Velcro for my Mic attachment. what also turned up yesterday was my neck seal really happy with the one i chose in the end bucket wise everything's coming together just need to source some better hovi mic tips and s-trim, but i think i have found a source for the s trim now.

Ok so after a evening of very nervous shaping I now have the ears back in place , a lot happier with the fit and gaps

OK so now i have the correct screws thanks to themaninthesuitcase and have now painted the tops While i am waiting for that to dry i thought i would have a go re doing the helmet padding using some AIrsoft Mich pads and a load of velcro and i also made some packers for the pads going in around the brow first placement done Now all in place giving a snug fit and little or no helmet wobble or rotation when i have it on result

Cheers for the positive feedback, the lenses look better from the front now I think Have now started to re-assemble used the old screws for alignment only and then pop riveted in place using a 3.5 mm flat washer on the other side also as to not stress the plastic to much also used a additional rivet on the left side to close up the gap to the brow trim that was bothering me

now cleaned up frown teeth gaps and masked for painting with plasti dip, then I'm going for first fitment of lenses. Not going to bad at the moment

So have now covered my T nuts in Sugru and rough laid out lenses for triming

Can't wait for tomorrow forum name is my gamer tag Xbox one

So eye openings now cleaned up and T-nuts mounted in four places using E6000 and magnets going for belt and braces approached by covering nuts in SUGRU once set

Thanks for the heads up with the screws and thinners been trying to track down the right ones, going to split my lense just for more room really bit of a wearing glasses issue, seeing if can place everything so no need to mess with contacts

are they prescription Lenses fitted in your bucket ??

Well here we go the start of the big build adventure, main amour is on order from RS but i am going to start with a overhaul of my Anovos bucket, A few things just dont sit right straight out of the box 1. left ear gap to brow looks a bit large ?? 2. over spray on frown. 3. lens placement and fitment bit fragile any thoughts and comments on photos i will upload greatly appreciated. Also upgrades to go in are plasti dip paint Ukswrath's echo bracket and fan system TRamps voice changing MIc system Helmet padding set up

Check out TRamp on face book, pretty good step up and effects, easy install as well .
