deadvision Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Hello this is my formal introduction/W.I.P. I hope to finish my kit soon and become an official 501st member. My build is a TD PVT with the DLT-19 and hopefully Officer status some day, but first things first. Here is a couple of photos of my progress. I didn't document too well but as you can see I'm not too far off. Obtained my kit in December and have made some slow progress over the months. Fresh MTK out of brown box. I really tried to capture what I felt a sandtrooper looks like when building this bucket. Torso test fitting And last a progress shot of where I currently stand So as of now I still need to make the belt, left bicep(may or may not reshape, the backs of both my thighs and shins are not yet closed(I really need an extra person for that), and of course weathering. Thanks for looking I will update as I "move along"'. Not sure how to resize the images so my apologies if they are a bit large. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm waiting till I get all the rivets in my armor so I can do it all one pass. Thanks for all the feedback guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadvision Posted April 5, 2015 Author Share Posted April 5, 2015 Update: I have began weathering some of my armor pieces. It may seem heavy but I can always wipe some away. How does the color and texture look? Feedback appreciated as always. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandtrooper Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Looks good to me. Did you use paint for the weathering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadvision Posted April 5, 2015 Author Share Posted April 5, 2015 Looks good to me. Did you use paint for the weathering? Yup, sure did! 3 different tones. A neutral gray, flesh tone yellow, and a warm grey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
