SwedishTX

Next week im going to order boots and gloves. speaking of gloves, it pretty hard to find something similar here in sweden, but i found this and i just curious about the color, im colorblind when it comes to red. what you guys think, could these work?

Hey! i hope everyone had a great summer! eveything for this build is printed, YAY! i did a quick first test and it not fit that good as i hoped Chest armor is to high, shoulders need to be closer. and biceps need to come up a bit. and i notice that i painted the left gauntlet (on picture) wrong color. But hey im getting there :)

Hey! I have decided to fix kama and everything by my self. Does anyone know where i can fint sewing pattern to the kama?

Will do! Don't we have a R0TK in swedish garrison?

Good answers 👌👌👌 biceps, forearms and shoulders is done so I think i will go with them anyway. I have some research to do this evening then. Edit: after looking at some reference photos i start thinking of thigh and shins are the same as ROTK? I can't see much difference between them

Hey! Small update! I have decided to print at new helmet, Rosario dawson is coming to comic con stockholm and I want her autograph on the helmet 🤓 I have another question to all experts on TK armors. I'm thinking about buying a R1TK armor on etsy, what is the difference between R1Tk armor and Enoch's? Chest armor i know about.

Hello there! Nothing happens on my build, still waiting for the clothes! But i repainted the helmet, i think it looks much better now and the gold is better. Iknow it looks like black on the sides but its not :) Catch you later!

Yeah i have those files. I tried to shape lenses but that plastic start to bubble. I just order acrylic sheet so i will try that again

i bend it as much as i could, is it enough or should it be more " out side" the eye holes? i know the crl says ( level 2 ) "Eye Lenses are domed in shape." there is a guy on etsy selling eye lenses to this build but the reviews isnt that good only just thing i dont like with it is the gap ( check the arrow)

Thank you both I´ts time now to cut out the lenses, i made a couple before but i dont know where they are. i hope i can bend them enough and still see in them.

I hope all had a nice new years eve! Thought i made a good deal with the shoes but it was a step bakwards I made another try to apply gold leaves and it turns out great, let mee hear your opinions before clear coat it

hah now i feel stupid for not did enough research before i bought them

Yo! i hope all of you had a wonderful christmas! No update on the suit yet, but i know it will be top notch! I bought tk shoes from a friend in SG, they was to small for him and perfect on me! i don´t remeber what Nairy told me if it was roughe one shoes or Fotk?

Thank you

Tried a new method on the gold leafs and i want to share it with you! yesterday i repainted the shoulder armor and add gold leaf for the third time with great results! I dab the surface with a makeup sponge and apply the gold after 30 minutes, use a fine brush and then when you are happy with it, use your finger! most of the wrinkles will disappear ( if wrinkels is correct term )

Well, i don't have to stop printing at all. Does anyone know where i can get stl files to the blaster?

Yeah! but i still think the pieces i already printed will fit .

Update! i just ordered the suit from Sheev´s emporium! Which means i must stop my printing and painting untill it arrives so im sure about the scaling is correct! Happy building!

Think i have made a big mistake on this project. I have printed so much and used my shadow under suit for reference. Now when i look at the suit on sheev's emporium the material feels thick? Does anyone here bought it and can tell how thick it is? I also asked sheev about it but I dont know if he is able so answer fast.

i can try take a picture with all later

Update! Me and Nairy had a chat yesterday on messenger about the locking mechanism and we came up with a solution. Take a plastic strip about 50 mm wide and and 200mm long, glue one half on the armor and put velcro on the other half and tadaaa! i hope this help someone else who have same problem Thanks Nairy Put them on for a test and they fit like a glove! and i started to print Thigh armor yesterday and i´m out of filament now. Size feels right but i must wait and see when the back side is complete

i hear what you saying! but the cut should be under the big strip so you can close it propely, ( i use shadow armor as a reference ) this is the right way, yes? and here is how they made the cut on enoch, maybe glue a plastic strip on the inside with velcro should do the trick. i have seen other prints there the big strip is overlap the other piece

yeah i tried that to when i did it there was a gap like 3-4 mm and you can see velcro. i just got home from hardware store with some stuff i must try

unfortunately, it didn´t work :/ The files i got have that strip next to the cut

question time! Best way to secure and lock shin armor, is it elastic straps and velcro? I cant glue them together ? Question nr 2. shoulder straps. Does it have to be ABS plastic or is it ok to cast them in rubber/silicone?
