zv288bot[TK] Posted May 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 (edited) I do have to paint the ears and I did the teeth! That's 40% hand painted no? Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk Edited May 9, 2016 by zv288bot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComradeDave[TK] Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 lol I actually love the painting part did all hand painted its the only part I think looks ok. But then again I'm way too self-critical. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentry71[TK] Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Here is a picture. I've sold my ATA helmet so I don't have the two to compare but here is the most recent S trim I purchased from Trooperbay. It is consistent with what I have. You should be fine with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again I'm way too self-critical. Actually I forgot about the vocoder part so really it's more than 40%! Now I am thinking more like 47.7% hand painted. Bro, your armor looks so cool and shiny in your pics. Totally not giving yourself enough credit. Also I had my first boo boo last night. When I was going to rough cut the second ear for whatever reason I grabbed the ear that I already trimmed and cut a line across the top of the ear. I'm gonna ABS paste it or maybe just leave it. lol I actually love the painting part did all hand painted its the only part I think looks ok. But then again I'm way too self-critical.

zv288bot[TK] Posted May 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 I just now noticed how different both of these are... It's all good, just didn't really look until I painted (only cause I didn't get decals ) them. Onward!

ComradeDave[TK] Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 Thanks bud. They look fine! Is that cut right through? Or is it just aesthetic. You could totally use Novus on that it'll come out I love that stuff. Sent from my SGH-I317M using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airborne Trooper[501st] Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 What's wrong? Even on the movie used helmet, lines are a bit shaky. Unless you're one of those weirdos that like idealized instead of screen accurate, leave it be and hand paint everything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zv288bot[TK] Posted May 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Alrighty now... With the exception on wiring for fans and installing the hard hat liner I'm calling this done. Some bat's can fly in and out of the back side ears but hey, they keep mosquitoes away. Now the difficult part, the rest.

zv288bot[TK] Posted May 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 Ok, so I feel like the forearms need extra love that I am not willing to give them right now so I am starting from the bottom up. So tonight I work on the shins! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
