Albaz Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) So here I am, starting my thread. I've actually completed my helmet already, and it was pre-trimmed so there wasn't much to discuss. Also, I felt like posting my thread was going to be redundant, seeing how many people have similar threads. Anyhow, here's my helmet: I started with paint (I actually thought I did good with my teeth, and I used no masking!), but I soon realized how difficult it was to paint nice tears, etc....so I went with painted looking decals (the ears are painted though). I started trimming the rest of the armor for now since I bought an untrimmed kit Edited May 8, 2017 by albiwan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouser73 Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Looking great! Nice seeing someone starting an AP kit at the same time as me. Which reminds me I should have a thread going as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albaz Posted May 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Today I decided to put together the thermal detonator. I first had to cut the pipe so it would be 7.5" long with caps installed. It was fairly easy, even thought I had to use a saw and made a mess. Edges weren't perfectly straight but I figured once I put the caps on, who cares lol. I glued the white plate on with some zap-a-gap and it was good to go in 20 seconds. What do you guys think? I wanna go for level3/centurion so I tried to stick to the guidelines as much as possible.

Albaz Posted August 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) So....not much of a build thread...I forgot about taking pictures and updating this completely. I finished my armor yesterday and sent images to the GMLs. Hopefully I'll be approved soon. I want to thank @starsaber25 and @Redforce for the help, support, and patience!

starsaber25[Admin] Posted August 28, 2017 Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 I'm really happy I could be a part of this build. You armor is top notch Alberto. It was fun. I'm sure you will have your EIB and Centurion badges very soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
