Here to chime in some encouragements... i say this is a good one, one with "effort" in presentation. "wow" on that UP100 syphon. Good luck!

You got this! Here to give you some encouragement... we need more sandies. Let's see that pics without the backpack

Awesome build. The craftsmanship & skill are evident. Great job trooper !

Another Bapty... woah! And i'll never own real MG 34 parts... way to go!

I know who won it, and it wasn't you. I'll keep a watch out for you Scott... It will come, patience my friend.

Here’s one: good luck, MTFBWY ! https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F292633483024

It will come Scott. It’ll pop up in eBay soon enough. Interesting that the M19s suddenly popped up more than the M38s these past few weeks tho... patience my friend

Looks bad *** Luis !

Why.. well, thank you sir. It’s sturdy ..

Value is all about expectations. With a few mods, it would be OK for PO. The canisters for one, like @lovemonkey mentioned. Vitamin or shampoo bottle would do.

For now, i'm comfortable with picload. I'll see what they'll offer...

Another update to the armor: First, the skull mark on the chest. Wasn't happy how its right eye (left on viewer's point of view) is higher than the left. Eye adjustment it is. The mystery line is now further extended to the center. Might add a little less pronounced dirt onto these lines... Another revision to the right shoulder bell, something i previously wasn't quite happy about. From what i make, you can almost see another skull mark there. The mystery tape & some light weathering... Thank you all, constructive criticisms welcomed. Updates to the backpack coming soon. Salute troopers!

Hey man, A real hengstler counter & real M38 just got sold 350€. And this was last week. Are you part of the "Star Wars Blaster Build Group" fb group? Sometimes people post vintage items for sale there. Check it out.

Weathering is a matter of taste. @pandatrooper provided the "how" guide that a lot of us sandies follow. Doesn't mean you have to always follow that; and as to how much... the generally accepted notion here is: "less is more". I say: Keep on doing what you're doing. Looks good!

Awesome welding! You did a good job there. Envy you too...i will never be able to bring in a deactivated sterling to this part of the world.

Hi Warren, did you try to upload pics to the forum? Because it just won’t allow you. All the pics you see here are picture links from online storage sites such as picload.org please check them out. Hope this helps

Finally John... grats ! Another SWAT !

You did very well on these paint drips. I just noticed this thread. And will be following with great interest ! Go on Greg, you have our support!

I feel all of you. I use an insole inside my boots. The center of gravity for me somehow pin down along the insoles, hurting my legs too. My garrison's troops would be in shifts tho. We make sure no one troops more than an hour. In doing marches, i will always tell whoever usually is in front most (usually kylo ren) to SLOW DOWN.

Great application. Should be few easy fixes. Hang in there !

Super awesome... be sure to have it framed

Grats again Scott ! Well done !

The one on the right looks closer John. You don’t like shampoo bottles ? Lol

I think he meant this Joe:

Shoutout for Urs... you're totally spot on mate. I would've missed the vac-formed faceplate. For Stephen, you got this man... hang in there. Just few easy fixes !
