Great additions to a blaster, that already was very beautiful before!

If possible, I would recommend to rotate the trigger group retaining pin from position FREE to LOCK. The FREE position was used for disassembling this group.

Doh! Great pro tip! Thanks man.

Just a quick note: the Heavy version of the F-11D (with the tactical stock) isn't supposed to be mountable to the thigh rig. In fact the originals don't even have the bracket for that purpose.

 

Nonetheless, I can't deny how cool the two pictures you posted are!

You're right. I've never seen those blasters mounted on their thighs, but we thought it was fun to take some photos to demonstrate its (probably) intended purpose.

Since my last post, I've been adding genuine parts to my E-11 and I thought I share the progress here.

 

Scored a M38 scope in Australia!

Hi Tennant,

 

I hope you are well.

 

I'm gutted to see that your image links have gone. I can no longer drool over your amazing blaster. :-(

 

Best wishes,

Dan

 

Hi Dan! I've been well thank you. I hope you've been well too. 

 

I fixed the images! Hope they are useful for new builders out there. As an added bonus, here's how it looks like attached to the thigh armor;

seriously impressed by this build. 

 

Question on the print files, on the rail with the two tear drops , are the tear drops printed seperatly on the big blaster? I had support issues on the regular f11d so they are not perfect

Thanks Joe. Is this what you mean?

I have only this to say to you: wow. 

[Twnbrother Build with Dday, FieldMarshall, Aaron, T-Jay, SWPropman and more parts]

I just got caught up on your build and every post is riveting! This is one of the most outstanding builds I've seen here. Congratulations on your brilliant build and I look forward to seeing a full demo video soon.

Looks like a ver 2.0 build with full metal parts is inevitable.

Congratulations Dan! You wear the armor well.

Jesse if all goes as planned I will be able to pull back the bolt to observe the chamber.   Hopefully.......

This is going to be interesting... Carry on trooper!

Hi Tennant - thank you. Your's was part of the inspiration I mentioned above. (...and yes, it's possible that your's and Tino's completed blasters 'may' have featured on my desktop background at some point)... 

 

I think a pipe build with similar components to your will be my next project. Your finished blaster is exceptional. I'm especially taken with your Snaggletooth Hengstler. If I'm honest, I think my Doopy's counter is the weak link of my blaster and might be due an upgrade (already). ;-)

 

Thanks for your feedback. Much appreciated. :-)

 

Dan 

 

I am very flattered Dan. Thank you.

 

Dennis' replica counters are highly recommended. I got a real one from him soon after I completed my build and it is very hard to tell the replica apart from the real one. 

[Doopydoos Full Resin Kit WIP + Tino,Chris + more, Additional Parts]

The amount of mods you're applying is insane and the results are absolutely fantastic. In all honesty, I respect builds like yours. Mine is simply like a model kit that I assembled and painted. But your build requires so much more craftsmanship. Awesome work brother. 

[Twnbrother Build with Dday, FieldMarshall, Aaron, T-Jay, SWPropman and more parts]

I am in awe of your electronics work. Looking forward to the completion of your build. 

[CableGuy's DoopyDoos (feat. T-Jay kit) ANH E-11 WIP]

Fantastic work Dan! Your attention to details paid off and I'm glad you didn't overdo the weathering. You should be proud. 

[Just another E-11 build]

This build is still alive!!!

 

I acquired a genuine Hengstler Counter 400 from Dennis aka @TK-50101 Blue Snaggletooth and it is absolutely gorgeous! So much so I contemplated for a really long time before deciding to paint it.

 

I used toothpaste to create the chipped paint effect and scuffed it up with steelwool. Again I left the cadmium coating intact since I really like that feature.

 

Set the counter to my 501st Legion number.

This is by far one of the most detailed WIP E-11 Threads I have seen here on FISD. Now granted, I don't get to look through all TOPICS, but.. nonetheless.. Mighty Impressive work Jesse. 

Agree. His attention to details and craftsmanship are admirable.

Here's a photo of that piece if it helps.

I thought I'd share some of my research as I look to create that vertical slit piece at the front end of the folding stock. Ducati has the housing for it described as a 'Front Pivot Bushi' in his pinned build thread entitled: Ducati's Build.  Interesting to compare how different builders have gone to recreate this and that vertical piece of the folding stock. For a stock that doesn't unfold, like mine, I will see to mimic as closely as possible that vertical piece as shown in the FISD E-11 Blaster Reference.

 

Here's a photo of an actual Sterling SMG, so it looks like Ducati and T-jay got it spot on. 

 

*Update: mine is definitely wrong so I'm going to correct it. Kudos to you for highlighting this bit of detail Jesse.

Interesting find, I will see to incorporate this on my build, thanks for sharing - as others have said, your build has been a great ride, very quality build, excellent work

 

Thanks brother. I'm figuring things out as I go along and I'm grateful for all the guidance I have received.

Amazing work on the blaster. Robert's parts really make a huge difference. I recently broke out my old DVH kit and the amount of cleanup and fixing is almost unthinkable. Might have to abandon those parts and start the long expensive process to buy Robert's parts. 

 Love this build. Great work!!!!!

Thanks Brian! Indeed I reviewed my cost breakdown for this build last night and almost popped a vessel. Not for the faint hearted for sure.

So I was looking through some reference photos of back caps, I found another boo-boo: there are holes in the receiver ring that I overlooked.
