  3. R1TK build by TK-12953 for DS-32076 850 Armorworks

    in Rogue One Build Threads

    Posted

    started to work on the helmet some. I'm not happy with how it printed, so I reached out to @TKModder421 to see about getting his modified files for the Nico R1TK helmet.

    He sent them on to me, so I'll start printing those today. I've sent some of the smaller bits (ears, ear caps, traps and tears) to one of my friend for resin printing. I hope that they will turn out as well as Greg's pictures did on his post.

    Here is what I was working, with. I'll hold on to it to practice finishing work on.

  9. R1TK build by TK-12953 for DS-32076 850 Armorworks

    in Rogue One Build Threads

    So I started to watch the 850 AW build videos to get an idea of how different this build will be from an OTTK and I discovered that I'm missing some pieces. First off, I'm missing the TD mounting block (cheers to @gmrhodes13 for providing me a few 3d printed options to try). And secondly, I seem to be missing the 37" ABS strip for the belt. So it is time to source a few parts.

    I'm hoping to at least start building arms and legs this weekend as they seem pretty much the same accept the build video showed it done as overlapping joints instead of butt joints. So I'll need to check some other build threads and the Crl to verify some build techniques.

    The cod slides under the belt and up as you sit. The ab section will need to be cut to fit under her chest. Mine is pretty high on me and slides up over my nips as I sit, lol. But the ab and chest attachment and fitment seems pretty secondary for sitting. All the magic is in the cod and belt.
     
    Very cool project James! I'm looking forward to seeing it all put together. :dancing-trooper:


    We figure we will have to cut the ab down some for this as well, so we'll fit it to her sitting and when adjust as needed for when she stands for pictures.

    We are excited to see how this goes.

    Greeting all!

    I'm about to start down this road. I was gifted a 850 armor works R1TK, minus the helmet. My son and I are planning to build it for my Wife (DS-32076), she currently only has a Mara Jade that she wears, but she is jealous of al the attention that Jarod and I get, so she wants to be a TK too! With her disabilities, our local Garrison Armor and GML both suggested the R1 style might be better for her as it maybe a bit easier to customize for her conditions.  We plan to build it standard, but we will be setting it to have the cod and butt plate be strapped for easy removal as she often has to use a powerchair for larger events and needs a walker otherwise. We may need to cut the thighs and shins for easier sitting, and we'll see what other changes we need to make post build.

     

    This will be the build thread. Let's see how it goes.

    The problem we have is that in Star Wars all the weapons look like real world weapons due to the aesthetic chosen back in the 70s. Whilst that’s changing a bit with other franchises, we’re not carrying phasers. 
     

    This means you really really need to be aware of who might see this and the conclusions and consequences that may lead to. 
     

    One thing that’s worth mentioning and probably not overly well known is that in the UK is simply owning an E-11 could potentially be a firearms offence, and so can REALLY land you in hot water if you don’t use some common sense.

    No offense, but yikes.... The more you know, I guess.....

    I was so into my new build, trying to get it done before our last big event, now I'm eh, I'll get to it eventually. Guess that's the problem with having a working kit already.

    You've taken your first step into a larger world!

    Welcome to FISD. I can tell you as a non-handyman, you've already got one up on me and I do okay.

    Shooting for Centurion off the bat is a great way to start. It can be tough, but rewarding.

    As @gmrhodes13 has already pointed out, there are lots of resources and friendly faces around to help.

    So hope on in, take a look at some build resources, look at some of the build threads (you can check my two out in the links below my signature), and jump in with both feet. We'll be here to assist with any questions you might have!

     

    Best of luck and we look forward to seeing your build page!

    I did not recieved any response yet, i will ask again. If its not possible i think i need to buy the full set of files. Or does somebody have them and can share it?

    I'm really excited about seeing how this comes out. That wrap on the glove looks like something you could create with a 2nd set of the gloves and just cut the patter out and sew it on. I think I read you have someone making you the kama, so they might be able to do that as well.

     

    Unfortunately anyone that has access to these files would be breaking their agreement with GA if they shared them, so not sure you will get a response in public forum about sharing paid for files.

    My guess is that Aaron only sells them as a set. The whole set is on sale for $30 currently.

    If you alright bought the helmet, you might ask him if you can upgrade to the full set and pay the difference.

    I've seen some vendors allow that.
