Second! My Garrison mate Jason Kerr is #4

Fantastic news! Thanks for all the advice and assistance along the way, guys!

The last piece of the jigsaw!! I redid the chest weathering as requested and toned it all down. Fingers crossed!!

Hi Urs, Thank you for the review. I’ve changed all the points you raised on the weathering, hopefully I’m finally across the line!

Felix has asked me to tone down the chest weathering a bit more so I’ve did that Here is a comparison before and after hope this is okay

Pic of the rear as requested...

Okay, so hopefully these are my final submission pictures on my SWAT journey. I’ve completed all of the modifications as requested and I hope my kit is good enough for SWAT

Thanks dude. I’m just in the process of dirtying up my pristine pack

The reason I’m confused is because I haven’t seen anyone else posting pics of the rear of their armour when their trooper is a pack wearer. It seems silly to try and emulate screen accuracy when it isn’t ever seen on screen... You didn’t post pics of the rear of yours and I don’t recall any other pack wearer being asked to post pics of theirs

I’m confused... are there reference pics of the rear? My Sandie wears a pack

A picture of the back of the armour without the pack?

Ok so I’ve made the requested mods to the weathering. I’ve toned it right down and made it less solid. All of the helmet mods were completed earlier in the thread My pack is scratch built and is also fully detailed in this thread Feedback invited, hopefully I’m close...

Circular disc added to DLT 19 and weathered

I’ve got 2 lengths of 68mm pipe left they’re 34” each allowing enough excess to chop them down to 29.5” one of them is going to Henselmonster, if anyone wants the other, drop me a pm. No charge, just cover the postage

I’ve been fine tuning my weathering. I’ve removed a fair amount and tried to emulate the reference pics and the recently cleared SWAT guys. Shoulder bells -front shoulder bells - rear Thighs Shins Biceps and forearms Weathered bottom edge of tool box

In all seriousness, if I can help anyone out by sharing this, drop me a pm

I’ve got lots left, if I ever build another pack

No I didn’t get the tube from TT. It’s a 68mm drain pipe and I bought 2.5m of it

Done. Removed. Repositioned. Repainted.

Last job done... added the cap cap to the lap pipe hope this is okay

Okay so I’ve been working on the pack all day.... hopefully the issues have been addressed satisfactorily I chopped the mounts off of the exhaust and moved them so that they correspond with the ribs like Strider’s pack Mortar tube painted matt black. Mortar tube cap on at an angle Bottle cap on at an angle Exhaust aligned with middle rib as requested Lab pipe raised to correct height Tape added to tool box the only job left to do from the list is to add to add an end cap to the lab pipe so I’ll work on that. Hopefully then I can start weathering it if the rest is good?

My mortar tube is back after painting and the height is good. I’ll fashion something for end of lab pipe. I’ve cut the mounting brackets off my exhaust. I’ll reposition them

You confused me because the mortar tube isn’t attached in my pic with the raised lab pipe

The position of the mortar tube?
