I agree with making them a bit big and adding foam inside for comfort.

I'd clear more of it. The bite on the forearms can be nasty. Hi Roscoe. Check the references for TD's, as you'll most likely need to thin down the endcaps.

Same rivets as used for the ab/kidney connection.

That's gotta be one of the best build pics ever. And the sniper knee looks good so far!

Here are shots of my thigh pack for reference:

Fitting the sniper knee is a right of passage, much like the S-Trim on your bucket. I think mine was 4 tries. As has been said, look at the Centurion threads. Line it up as best you can on the sides, get it level and lined up in the front. Hot water baths can work miracles. Adding foam padding behind the shin on that side is almost a must to keep it out of the way.

Have fun! Make sure you have all of your supplies for your build: https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/31404-supply-list-for-your-tk-build/ Ans set up your IMGUR account so you can post images: https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/42381-howto-post-images-in-threads-using-imgur-easy/ Here's a handy reference link for many common questions: https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/41016-billgrams-the-one-stop-shop/ And don't forget about the reference images: https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/gallery/ Post lots.

If there's too much use of the "friends and family" option they can get suspicious. Yes, Paypal is evil in the same way as Stub Hub and Ticketmaster. They have a monopoly and exploit it.

I'd use the ABS sheet that you have, cut it in a modified + sign and fold it to make a box. Use the galleries for finding reference images.

I was just coming back to add that LOL. Yeah some padding behind the sniper knee will help. Also the straps on your holster stick out the top a bit. Not sure if that's kosher or not but it's an easy enough fix.

Looks like your belt ammo packs are a bit far in. E6000 on the elastic will keep them in place. Nice job!

Very nice work! EIB next?

2" ABS tube is common and easily available.

Don't worry too much about taping the vocoder. Your pencil lines look great and with a smaller brush you shouldn't have any issues.

I went elastic, E6000 to connect it, and industrial velcro because I suck at snaps. Any of it is easily removed and replaced. I survived 3 days at Toronto Comicon with 0 durability issues, but I also keep some of the industrial velcro in my kit for emergency repairs, as well as some elastic and strapping. Now, that being said, my long term mods will be to get snaps in place of a lot of my velcro...

My 2 Imperial credits worth: Looks like the wrong type of screws on the TD. They should be a flatter "pan head" style rather than the domed ones that come with the AP kit. Also, the plastic plate on the TD should be touching the metal brackets, yours looks a bit low. They'll want more pics of your sniper knee (front/left/right), the inside of your thigh ammo connections, as well as side shots with your arms lowered, Your ammo drop boxes should line up with the end of the plastic on the belt. Some E6000 on the straps will stop them from moving. As mentioned, your cod is sticking out a lot (no jokes!). That strap looks pretty long. The stripes on the vocoder are also a bit rounded at the top (i.e. the middle stripe is higher than the 2 on the sides). Some are sticklers for them being on the same horizontal line. Good luck!

Woohoo! Great work!

Welcome aboard!

Thanks! V2 is in the works.

Congratulations!

My thoughts, for what they are worth: -A bit of overspray on the teeth - There shouldn't be any paint on the "gums". -Belt is sitting a bit low -45's on the belt don't line up with the cloth. -Blaster - It looks like you've used brass paint on the whole blaster. The scopes were brass, the rest of the gun is more of a steel/gunmetal (other than the T-Strips which are flat black rubber and should show no weathering) Nice job and good luck!
