I'm Batman[501st] Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 The end cap all together, I put a brass pin to line it up. Hey Sean. Can you explain this step some more? Is this a permanent fixing meaning you can't take off the end cap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veeds[TK] Posted September 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 If I superglued the pin in it wouldn't be able to come off. I used the pin to help align it, and I have used E6000 to glue the two parts together but I am thinking of superglueing them. I want this assembly to be solid.

Dougal[501st] Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Looking good. Not sure if you have used it before but "green stuff" works well with filling in all those holes and pits. Not sure if this link will work. http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a493/Byron_Carlos_Klinger/Stormtrooper%20Build/imagejpg8_zpsbb928183.jpg Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Edited September 14, 2014 by Dougal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starsaber25[Admin] Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Hey Sean welcome back and everything is looking good. What type of paints are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veeds[TK] Posted September 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 I used a krylon hammered on the barrel, and rust-o-lium plastic for the plastic pieces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dday[501st] Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) the bolt ready to be installed. You might want to consider doing a darker silver, or gunmetal for the lowered areas of the bolt that shows. The real bolts were a dark gunmetal color with the raised spiral parts more of the silver colored... I plan an experimenting with the silver color I have and some black to darken it up some to do this. I should be doing that tonight and posting the results in my thread. Oh, and I like to put my guns on "safe" Since we're on a troop in a "safe" area, any trooper who's been through basic training should know that the weapon should be secure, don't want some innocent bystanders blasted down!

Dougal[501st] Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 I am almost positive my local gaming shop sells tubes of it. I'll post up if they do. Don't mind helping troopers get some if they have it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougal[501st] Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 It is listed under the technical paints section as liquid green stuff Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougal[501st] Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Even harder to get in Australia. I reverted to ebay. Try Games Workshop.

gazmosis[501st] Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 What about the red body filler we all used to use on the TE buckets to repair the brows? Spot putty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dday[501st] Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 What about the red body filler we all used to use on the TE buckets to repair the brows? Spot putty Any form of hole filling putty will work, the stuff used to fill wood, or drywall and so on. I guarantee if you go to your local builders store you will find hole filling quick dry stuff for a few $$$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veeds[TK] Posted September 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 I found some Testors contour putty at my local hobby shop. I seems to be working fine, even though its not a fast drying compound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
