zaptrooper Posted March 2, 2013 Report Posted March 2, 2013 (edited) Just got the tracking number for my armor kit so I'm reserving this thread for my build over the course of the coming weeks. Really excited and cant wait to get the package. This is going to be a complete Cap-W build. I know theres some controversy on the forums and Im sure Ill get a lecture on the evils of recasting but I'd prefer to keep that to pms and focus solely on the build in this thread. Looking forward to posting pics of the big brown box soon, as well as hearing any comments or constructive criticisms on the build any of you might have. More than anything else, Im just excited to be here and to share something with everyone that were all passionate about. I finally feel like Im a "real" member of the forums and not just lurking.

zaptrooper Posted March 2, 2013 Author Report Posted March 2, 2013 Hopefully you wont need it. I bought this amor from a fellow garrison member who never completed it.As far as I can tell, all he did was open the box and take everything out to look at before forgetting about it. Quote
zaptrooper Posted March 6, 2013 Author Report Posted March 6, 2013 Minor update, both the armor and my tk boots are getting here tomorrow Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted March 6, 2013 Report Posted March 6, 2013 And the excitement sets in, wait for the panic lol Quote
zaptrooper Posted March 9, 2013 Author Report Posted March 9, 2013 And the excitement sets in, wait for the panic lol I found the best defense against panic was to jump right in with both feet.I'll be posting pics of the bucket as soon as Im done attaching the ears. Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted March 9, 2013 Report Posted March 9, 2013 Cool can't wait to see the pic's Quote
zaptrooper Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Posted March 10, 2013 As promised here are a few pics of the bucket. Sorry I didnt take any pics of the box or the armor all layed out I just jumped right in. Took me two full days off and on to get it this far. Quote
zaptrooper Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Tomorrow Im going to Scotch-Brite everything and paint it glossy white.The smudges are from taking the rubber trim on and off and my grubby fingers. How do the teeth and the eyes look? I like the long twinky shaped teeth the best Edited March 10, 2013 by zaptrooper Quote
Kessel Run[TK] Posted March 10, 2013 Report Posted March 10, 2013 Looks good so far you did a really nice job on the ears. eys and teeth look pretty good, if you find you have to trim them more later, thats easy enought to do looks like a bucket should here was mine at that stage your doing great! keep it up and keep those pics coming Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted March 11, 2013 Report Posted March 11, 2013 Great job so far keep up the good work Quote
zaptrooper Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Posted March 11, 2013 Thanks guys.Going to shave an 1/8 of inch off the eyes tomorrow and work on widening the teeth a little more before painting. Quote
Kessel Run[TK] Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 I used those little files, and a big dremel tool when I trimmed the teeth and eyes. you got it! I just picked up a Hero lid so I have to do it all over again too lol Quote
Scootch[TK] Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 Keep em deep and use sandpaper. It will look cool. BTW can't wait to see more Quote
zaptrooper Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) Trimmed the eyes and teeth out some more. Edited March 13, 2013 by zaptrooper Quote
