Thanks  painting the helmet is not my favorite part of a build but I don`t want to use decals either so...

[TheSwede[TK]]

Pin-stripes in need of some touch-up and then it`s tube stripes - tomorrow

Thanks though not overly happy about the pin-striping but after some touching up and ignoring to look right at it it will be fine

Using your tip to zoom when taking photos of the helmet so it resembles the real thing much better this time around

[Steaditrooper[TK]]

Wow. Just wow. Really nice MrShaky (yeah right). I almost feel confident enough to pull off my stickers and paint after seeing your work...almost. OK, not quite. I promise to paint everything on my Sandtrooper.

It’s looking very consistent to me, mate. :-)

Glad the zoom trick is working for you. Really does help, doesn't it. :-)

Are you getting a new belt to go with your stunt? 

[TheSwede[TK]]

You guys are too kind...or quite possibly looking on your phones with smaller screens but don`t get me wrong, I´m happy with the overall look of the helmet, (TM stuff is just awesome!) and the general paint-job, though it was a struggle and the pin-striping could be alot better...but some touching-up and it will be okay I could have used templates or "fill in the dots" with masking tape but wanted to free-hand it so

Do it! If you`re not happy then put the decals back on

I will hold you to it good thing about TD helmets is that there`s no pin-stripes, they are the hardest, for me anyway

Made a world of difference - thanks again

Yes I ordered the lot from TM, screen accurate strapping kit, latex handguards, holster and a belt. And he included a grappling box for free (thanks) so I will attached that to the current Hero belt along with the comlink I made and with this second kit I can have the option to go with either the Luke- or the Han-look meaning that one suit will have the grappling box and comlink permanently fixed to the belt but the other suit has the TD cannister and hence the option for a Stunt OR a Hero Han-style just swapping out the helmet...I know I could have attached the grappling box with clips and just got a Stunt helmet and still would have had the same choices but....that`s not how they did it in the movie, the grappling box is riveted to the belt and yeah I could have  just got a second belt but naaah I wanted the whole suit

[CableGuy[Admin]]

Awesome. Yeah, I forgot you’d got a whole new kit. (Note to self - pay more attention) lol
You’re gonna have a great collection of TKs and blasters at this rate. :-)

So many builds going on right now, hard to keep track on them all and I´m quite pleased - for now

                                                                                         Me and my son at Rogue One (not 501st approved FX kits I might add) uppdated pack on the left.

Updated the Shadow-bin

 

Now they match

Wow - what a collection. Didn’t realise you had a shadow, too. :-)

Have you seen Tino’s weapons cabinet? A good point of inspiration if you haven’t. :-)

I have, it`s awesome and I plan on stealing the design not the whole cabinet though, just the "rack" and incorporate something for the DLT and T21

[TheSwede[TK]]

Decided to start with the tube stripes before cleaning up the pin stripes to make the helmet look some what finished...some touching-up and they will do

[jethroskull[501st]]

Mmm, Shadow... next on my list (if I survive the TK).

Helmet done   Edit: forgot to paint the ear screws

 

Immediately started trimming and the torso and shoulders/bridges are done and that`s it for today *woop woop*

That paint job looks great!  I've been too terrified to do the stripes - that and I can't seem to find the time.  Not something I want to rush.

[Harbinger[IPM]]

You've already done this once. This should be a cake walk.

Thanks It`s not that hard and altough I woulden`t recommend my *just go for it* approach check Chrickets thread on how she did them and you`ll find it easy

I hope you`re right I`ll try not to be to over-confident

[Harbinger[IPM]]

You have the benefit of having done one of the same kit, so in theory you can just use that for your measurements (assuming you are happy with the fit).

[TheSwede[TK]]

Some nice progress at the Imperial factory....brackets are in and this time I countersunk the screw-heads, drilled the holes for side-connection, cod and put the belt together - just missing the covers....just a small break to get some exercise in then back to work
