Roukie 1[TK] Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 While waiting for my R1 armor, I felt a little bored. So I ordered a complete Kit from T- Jay, including his completion kit. It arrived just one day later ( we both were a little surprised) Along the build I always checked References and his blaster build. Unfortunately the Doopydoos kit is not 100% suitable for the R1 blaster. I had to improvise. But the grip is complete off. Anyways, I made changes where it was possible. All fotos can be seen Here. I was that busy, that I only took pictures on the way and didn't post it. But now I'm nearly ready to paint and weather . Feel free to comment and maybe critic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Jay[TK] Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 Hi Andreas, i really like the green stuff welding seam on the magazine housing. Can't wait to see that whole thing painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roukie 1[TK] Posted February 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 Hi guys, thanks for your appreciation. I'll try my best. My plan is to finish the blaster this weekend. Update will follow asap. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roukie 1[TK] Posted February 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 Almost ready for final paint. The fool as I am, I didn't buy the right black. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly11[Admin] Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 This is looking really nice. Rather than a link, have you thought about housing the images here in your thread using IMGUR? that way its easy for everyone to scroll through and enjoy your progress. Its an easy share service to use which allows you to copy and paste a link which once your post is saved actually shows the image. Keep up the great progress.

Is it gun metal grey or something? (hard to tell from a photo with flashlight) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roukie 1[TK] Posted February 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Yeah. It's glossy Hammerschlag. Too glossy. I'm already painting it matt black. Compared to the ANH blaster, this one will be all black. Just the bolt will get another colour. Btw. inserting pictures from Imgur doesn't work for me.

It is no disadvantage as multiple layers of paint do make a great finish. What about covering the hammered paint in stressed spots before adding the final black coat? This would make a nice weathered effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giskard8[Staff] Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 There is an alternate method to post picture from Google Photos: 1) Get a sharable link from the photo you wish to share in your Google Photo album 2) Go to https://ctrlq.org/google/photos/ and paste the link 3) Get the link form the bottom of the page under "Google Photos Embed Code" "Direct URL link" box 4) Paste the link directly in your post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roukie 1[TK] Posted February 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Ok. This seems to work. Some little things have to be done. T-Tracks and the scope. But for now I'm quite happy with my first build. Which took me around a week. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Jay[TK] Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 A great result Andreas - and done in record time! I really like the weathered look of this blaster. Well done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roukie 1[TK] Posted February 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 Thanks guys. Didn't think this would come out that good. Now I have to add the right power cylinders. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly11[Admin] Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 Great work Andreas, also glad you have a photo solution now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roukie 1[TK] Posted February 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2020 Just a little update. I worked on the powercylinders and the T-Tracks. I took the powercylinders which came with the kit and will build the right one for my blaster. Also I managed to get a rubber that fits perfect over the T-Tracks.

Roukie 1[TK] Posted April 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 Finally the rail for the small tactic light arrived. Now the blaster is complete. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Jay[TK] Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 The tactical light is the main feature to identify a Rogue One blaster. Glad to hear you have it now and completed this build. Oh, and the view through the scope is fantastic! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you watch closely, you can see, the targetcross is the wrong way in. I´m such a "Blindschleiche" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
