firebladejedi[TK] Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 Cool so far ive been working slowly putting mine together and have the arms all done and hope to work on the legs soon. I have all the body parts trimmed and have done a little shaping. Im hoping to have mine ready for the O2 gig next month.. Be sure to post up pics of what you have been doing please. Quote
Heatshock[501st] Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) yes yes - a necro post, but its my own thread!! after meandering to clones, I am back working on this fine kit. some things I learnt from clone builds carried across - thighs need widening - so split, extend and smooth extensions built and rivets heads in paint: I love rustoleum gloss!!

SCTrooper[TK] Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 That's a cool mod on the thighs, you opened up the inside of the leg instead of the back. Looks really nice and proportional. Quote
Heatshock[501st] Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Posted March 17, 2012 yep - that was the plan - as mentioned before - this was a 2nd hand side, so the back seam was already glued together. I thought that if I was gonn ahve to mod to get the thighs to fit, then I would open on the inside, where the join would be the least noticeable completed and painted now: if you angle it just right, with the lighting just casting a shadow, you can see the join more painting ab buttons - humbrol no. 5 and no 14 assembling the belt TD getting there now Quote
Heatshock[501st] Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Posted March 18, 2012 some rough fitting tonight - quite pleased, few things to sort out, but definately getting there havent done the strapping for the ab/kidney and the chest/back or round the bells yet. Bit of tightening up here and there Quote
Heatshock[501st] Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Posted April 2, 2012 strapping tightened up swapped out for my very modified MR CE from years ago Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted April 2, 2012 Report Posted April 2, 2012 Remember the crotch strap to keep that but plate under control. Quote
Heatshock[501st] Posted April 7, 2012 Author Report Posted April 7, 2012 right mathias - sorted cleared for trooping (finally!!) Quote
