im going to have the holster, just got the ok from GML, i personally thing a hwt should be heavly armed lol

 

Of course bro, that's what Heavy Weapon's all about

 

and don't forget to look cool too

 

[out0fstep]

Looks like tkboots got in a shipment, tis the final missing peice I need, I hope they have a pair for me

 

[out0fstep]

i see u opted not to use the ammo pouches, im still deciding, i see that the next level doesnt use them. hmmm less work = higher level lol, winning!

[BananoPower22[TK]]

actually, it does. it's not stated but it actually has to be there from basic 501st

[out0fstep]

ahhh, what level are you then? cause the only thing stopping my build from being expert infantry was the weathering, did u weather your armor?

[BananoPower22[TK]]

nope, didn't weathered mine. I'm right now EI

[out0fstep]

yea thats what i was shooting for, but i thought it had to be scratched up, hmm here is what i have competed so far lol

 

[BananoPower22[TK]]

looking good so far, love how the brow looks

[out0fstep]

yea trying to rock the move along style

[out0fstep]

Did u think it looks bad?

[BananoPower22[TK]]

no man, not at all. just a few tweaks right now, for example the forearms could be a little tighter, they look a little big. and once you get everything strapped up you'll be looking super nice

[out0fstep]

well the forearms werent closed yet, i was just trying to get an idea of the trimming/sizing. so hopefully they will be better, aside from what needs to be done, what needed tweaks? im gonna attempt to go EI HWT like you.

[BananoPower22[TK]]

that's good! and if you get an e-11, holster, remove pauldron/pack/pouches you can go for anh stunt too

[out0fstep]

yea actually i have so far: modified T21, holster, hasboro e11 painted black ( no dopedoos yet ) paldron, full under armor, neck seal, bucket, and the armor is nearing completion, and the pack is just about done as well, just need to mount the stinger box, and the bottom cleaner bottle. i was gonna make the thermal detonator and take off the gear for standard tk, i should be able to go IE with that as well, at least i hope so. just want to make sure its all correct as i move closer to completion so im not throwing my self to the wolves lol.

[out0fstep]

oh and i still need my rare size 11 tkboots lol

[BananoPower22[TK]]

well tk boots looks like they have some boots available.. send them an email while they're hot

[out0fstep]

yea im on the list, i dont think i made this batch

[out0fstep]

[BananoPower22[TK]]

looking good so far bro, keep it up!

[out0fstep]

yea the pack just needs the zip ties, and a clear coat to prevent scratching the paint off, then a little more wiring! got most of the snaps glued today on the armor, letting them all dry over night!

[out0fstep]

do the drop boxes have to be filled in?

[BananoPower22[TK]]

for hwt no, but you might wanna hang on to those since you'll need them for a tk (if you plan on trooping with a tk)

[out0fstep]

Yay! I got my email from tkboots! Now to complete the last bits of my armor

[out0fstep]

got my knee plate attached, gonna do the right thigh ammo belt next, any tips for getting it to sit flush to the armor? i have it clamped down now and seems to still have a little bit of gap in some places.
