good day dear all,
my first costume was approved in early 2016, which was TK (SDS armor)
few month later, I saw a TI kit with good price on 501st forum, so I built a TI,
and since I have bought the flight suit, I decided to use it well, so after I saw a
Gunner helmet with good price and little shipping fee, I built an IG.
however, there was a seed in my heart which was keep growing, until now, its time to
start building a HWT (together with major modification of SDS strapping system...)
backpack build:
it took me a long way to acquire necessary material with acceptable spec, especially the cylinder at the side of pack,
cannot find water pipe retailer here...
1.
I've stolen my daughter's watering can to build this, felt so guilty so I boutht her other toys
2.
step by step... there is still something wrong with this setting.
3.
I think this should be ok, but last minute I decide to change my design....
4.
before changing design, something is missing....
5.
this is final look of my backpack...
time to submit my photo to 501st XO ...
1. front
2. right - next time have to take care of my pauldron position
