Cantina Security Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Somehow, i feel like this armor still needs more... The pictures do wash out the colors a bit, but for some reason , i feel it needs a bit more weathering, especially to get to SWAT level. Any Thoughts? Thanks.

Cantina Security Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Thanks Bob., My GML says one more pass... he knows i want to go for SWAT. Here is the arms along with another pass on the thighs. I have about 5 hours in on the calfs, thighs and arms.... Going to lighten the thighs up a bit with a scotch brite pad tomorrow.

Cantina Security Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Anybody else have any suggestions? Am I on the right track for SWAT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandman Tigui Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 As long as it resembles in depth and pattern your reference pics it all cones down to that weathering criteria 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cantina Security Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 So I got my TD designation today...Yes Sir.. Super stoked to be bringing my TD to my First Official 501 troop. Here are some more pictures of my weathering. Getting Closer... This is the face of happiness. So, What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iconoclasta_88 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I really like the weathering. Think you have done an awesome job with the texture and overall look. If anything, for SWAT you would need to double check the distinctive patterns on the TD you are replicating. But should be no big deal after what you have already done. Congrats. Saludos.

Cantina Security Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Thanks guys, it was truly a labor of love. I did have my reference picture of the specific pattern. Got it close on the chest. Need to bring it up over the pauldron and a bit on the lid. Getting super close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
