Chunk[501st] Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Here are some pics of my wife "Berlin"'s new Sandtrooper costume. I spent 12hrs painting & sanding yesterday. We tried on the armor to see where I need to make improvments. Found a couple & will correct soon. Next week Im starting on her backpack. We're getting ready for San Diego Comic Con Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrooperTim Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Fantastic job on the weathering! If I went to the dirt side, that's how I'd weather it - enough to be dirty but not ridiculous grime. Only thing I notice is the thigh straps. Shouldn't they be black or is that ok for sandtroopers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct the theigh strap should be black. But I painted them when I was weathering the armor. Im going to remove them on my next weekend & attach black tab/snap straps.
