except on the belt to close it

I'd say use no velcro at all and use the new, SA strapping system

Thanks, Pete. That is quite a compliment coming from you Glad you like them! Just wait for the updated version!' Okay guys, the next step: I'm making a PU resin mold. (I'll explain later why) 3 layers of parting wax, 1 layer of PVA. I know I doesn't look perfect, but it'll do the job Stay tuned!

damn! That is putting out of business with my d-rings----------- j/k... Look like they visit our board from time to time. It is a cool update for more accuracy. Maybe they should sell these parts as an add-on. Karin

Thanks, Paul! Actually, this is one of the features I wanted to implement this time. I think I found a way to do this in a open faced plaster mould! I think he could tell you.... but then he must shoot you j/k... (of course) In fact, Paul's knowledge is the result of dedicated reasearch for several years, analyzing every piece of information over and over again. BTW: The indented "knuckels" can be seen on the "promo hero trooper"

Okay, would this be about right? Any opininon before I proceed with the next step? thanks!

Happy birthday! Hope you enjoy it Karin

I'm using Chrome and I only have "IP Board", "IP Board mobile" and FISD 2010.5

okay... then maybe at some time in the future, when the hero and stunt EIB requirements get divided, we should change this aswell

yes, indeed And here's a regular trooper wearing the "rare" type 2 How about calling them "standard" and "alternative"? "1" and "2" is a little boring -----------

That would be me. I used this term to make a differntiation between these 2 stiles, as there one was seen with this "hero" helmet. If we can find another terminology, I'm all for it -----------

When ATA came out last year, I few troopers made ATA heroes, IIRC. I'll see if I can find the old threads. PS: Glad you like them PPS: Even some "stunt" troopers wore hero guards

Don't forget to use washers

Thanks Paul! After staring at the hand guards all afternoon, I almost came to the same solution...

Thanks, Pablo. Believe it or not, I really planned on doing that 'So, anyone has an idea how to "easily rectify this minor flaw"? ATM, I don't have a clue. My "building" experience is a little limited.... Karin

This part? I think now I get it... I always thought that it will be "angled" once it follows the curve of the hand..

Paul, I think I can't follow you with my limited english... Could you please explain? Thanks for the contructive critisim! Karin

Thanks! Exactly THAT, and latex standards guards... The hero will be the samespecs as the non-latex, but I had to upscale them as the latex shrinks a little. Took me some math skills to do it - the upscaling percentage is NOT the same as the shrinking percentage. As for the standrad ones, This is now my 3rd version of it - within 1 year. Did some minor corrections. NOW I'm really happy with them. Karin

What do you say?

thank you, everybody! Karin

Thanks!

Could anyone of you who has an real scope tell me how long it is? Thanks!

Nice armor! now, you'd need a set of latex hero hand guards

The left one is a hero helmet, thusn the smaller frown

Yeah, owning such a beautiful replica should be illegal
