  1. Still needs a chinstrap and weathering of course but bucket is close getting done I think. Not sure if the padding is thick enough. Still kinda loose. Hopefully the chinstrap will help.
  2. Ughhh. I was wondering since the belt hides that area if it would matter. I guess if I have to separate them I'll need to create the return edges to attach the brackets. Sounds scary...
  3. Hey guys I have a question. My kit came with the kidney and butt plate all as one piece. Do I need to separate those for any reason or leave them as one? Thanks in advance!
  4. Not the best pics but I've got the painting pretty much done. Still need to do the lenses and put those in. I'll get some better pics later. I will say that I'm glad these are supposed to look hand painted. lol!!! I sure could use some painting practice is what I've found out.
  5. Thx! I'm super excited. I'd rather just build 24/7 until it's done but I have that thing called work and stuff that I have to do. lol!!! You're right Walt puts out a great kit. I really like it:) Yes I'll post tons of pics as I go along.
  6. Well I finally got to order my armor and it showed up! Just like Christmas in August This is my first armor build and I'm going to swing for the fences. I'm planning on going for SWAT with a "Stop That Ship" trooper build. I've gotten lots of references here on the MEPD so far and hope to get some feedback as I go along. Please feel free to chime in as I move along. <<<(See what I did there) lol!!! So I'll start with the obligatory BBB shot... And then the unboxing...(I had a little help) I started with the helmet. Because that most fun right?!?! Until the next update, thanks for looking. Roger
  7. Hey thx man! Great idea thx for the inspiration!
  8. I loved henselmonster's idea so much I had to make that part for my T21...
  9. This looks AWESOME! I'm gonna have to try this on my T21;)
  10. Sale thread is up. Just click the link in my signature
  11. Just weighed it and the verdict is..... 10.59lbs I know the resin stuff comes in at around 3.5 of that.
  12. Still have to check it. I'm going to guess around 8-10 lbs
  13. OK so this is going to be a pic heavy post but I want you guys to see everything put together. It still needs electronics but otherwise it looks like it's done Let me get my crap together for a day or two and I'll post all the info about getting resins parts for you guys to purchase. Thx for all the support and kind words as this has gone along. I really dig how this turned out...
  14. I used some 1/2" OD black Latex tubing. I love it. It's a bit "cushy" and has great grip to it;)
  15. Got the ribs on and the wire wrapped. Glad I've held up on getting this stuff to you guys. The greebies I made for the barrel are too big so I'm going to adjust and make some new ones and remold etc. Shouldn't put me back by too much. Maybe a few days or so by the time I refab, remold, recast, and repaint. lol!!! But better to catch it now rather than later.
  16. Thx! Not sure on weight but not too bad for the size of this thing. lol!!!
  17. Getting close guys I promise...
