darksideemt Posted November 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Sadly the build did not go as smooth as expected. We got the bucket done, both biceps, one forearm, the shoulder straps on and snaps onto the shoulder bells, chest and back plates at the shoulders. We will finish up next Saturday.

Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Whoa slow down there turbo.... you're saying you got all that done in 2 days and you're disappointed? That's a ton of work in a short amount of time Aloha, -Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a ton of work in a short amount of time Aloha, -Eric It was actually just yesterday, minus the trimming. I had all the trimming done and with his expertise he and I both thought it would pretty much be done. We ran into several assembly tools, (i.e. adhesive and snaps) problems.

bobojuice Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Tube stripes look a little low to me, and your vocoder paint seems a bit messy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksideemt Posted November 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Yeah, I think so too. I didn't put either on, my buddy did. Paint I can probably get off but the stripes will have to stay. Don't want to try and remove them or buy new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobojuice Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 It helps to outline the area you're planning on painting with a pencil to get the right shape you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locitus[Admin] Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Vocoder looks much better now, but you should really consider moving those tubestripes up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinSivertsen[501st] Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 The tubestripes should be about 1cm away from the ridge. I did an hilariously bad photoshop to show what I mean: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksideemt Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 for now the stripes are what they are. trooperbay said the ESB stripes only come with the whole set and i'm not going to pay for another set just to raise them up. one day i will but for now they stay.
