Lucky's HWT pack

[Lucky[TK]]

I've finished the build of my pack.  I followed ukswarth's excellent thread http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/30034-hwt-backpack-build-part-1/

 

Big thanks to justjoseph63 for all his info he has up and for his guidance.

 

I started weathering a bit to give it a rough kind of look.  I'm going to do some painting to it this weekend to get it dirty. Hopefully I can weather my armor this weekend as well.

Looking fantastic, Jeff!  You may want to cut down the bottom of the funnel a bit, almost to the level of the long black tube.  And yes, it could use a little "dirty love", LOL!  

 

This is what I did to weather mine:  I took a can of silver spray paint and a can of black, sprayed a bit of both in a shallow disposable plastic container and used the "dry-brush" technique.  Just dip it in and go.  The good thing is, if you "mess-up", just hit the pack with the black again!  You don't need to go crazy with the weathering, though.  Sometimes less is more.  Looking forward to seeing the final product!

Had a little time today so I weathered it a bit.  How's it look?  I just mixed a bit of a light grey paint with some black since I did not have the grey I wanted.

I weathered a bit of my armor too.  To much? To little? Looking good?

Looks good! I personally don't like things weathered too much and I think you are spot on. Its got enough weathering to look like its been through "the wars", but not too much.
