  1. Life keeps conflicting with my Star Wars obsession.
    Anyway. Power cylinders completed. Got some nice red cord from Spotlight that seemed to match old coated electrical wires. Fuses hot glued in and left some wire so that i can key this thing into the Magazine top.

    The basic mods are going a little OTT.
    Thought i would rebuild the sight. 
    I need some plastic and found... a fork.

    Carved this into my sight fitting and got a small hex screw and a bolt thread for the sight.

    Cut some aluminium for the sight hood. Textured the top by giving it a sharp crack with a sledgehammer and file for the imprint.

    Welcome back Paul and thank you for your Centurion application.

    CRL and Centurion Application Requirements:

    All required submission photos are present. Beautiful job on your build my friend :salute:

    Andrew and I are pleased to announce your armor displays all the elements as set out in the Centurion CRL. Congratulations and welcome to Centurion   

     

    Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:

    As mentioned during your EIB application reducing the shoulder bell to chest gap and raising your waist belt would help you armor look even cleaner and more accurate. Minor tweaks you can do in time.

    Wow, terrific work on the power cylinders already - they're looking great! You have an intriguing resin blaster Paul - can you shed some more light on this resin blaster, R & D? Curious to know a little more about them, cheers.

    R & D, You can find him on FB. Based in Australia. Even with postage, with the exchange rate it might be a good deal for you?

  4. This will be a pretty short build thread because of the most awesome build threads already out there.  I will be doing some basic mods to my R & D resin blaster. For those wanting the bible of blaster builds check out this reference guide.  Part authored by one of our very own Garrison Troopers "Sith Lord".

    The R & D blaster below. I have already removed the top rail that the scope will sit on.  The cast has good detail and is pretty light compared to a droopy version.

    I decided to start with the mysterious power cylinders.  Its about the only part from the E11 that cannot be decisively identified. Last guess is they are from old WW2 radars.

    Sheet aluminium- nice and soft to work with.

    Three central capacitors from tube aluminium and melted rubber and caps. The final bracket bent into shape.

    Slots were cut into the tubes for the wings to insert into for additional strength. Tubes were then hot glued with a brass wing detail added.

    For the end caps i heated some styrene and pressed it over the tube.

    Great job on your build! I only see a couple of things and it's only for looks. Your biceps seem a bit big and your bridges don't look even. Your right shoulder looks up more on chest making it sit almost on O II on back. 

    Again, great job and Good Luck!:duim:

    Thanks for the feedback. I have one leg longer than the other which makes my shoulders crooked. I didn't want to cut the bridges at different lengths. Ill see what happens but i would rather not cut them.
