FIVE Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Yeah, that's some good weathering! I especially like the chest. The knee plate should be only the diamond plate, not the trapezoid underneath. That would even keep you from getting a 501st TD #... so it's a "must change." But this is looking great man!

ground pounder Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Great weathering. Looked like how I did mine, completely filthy when I painted the parts, but then wiped most of it away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mightytank Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 Agreed....super easy fix though Clint. you can knock that out faster than issuing a speeding ticket Lol, I'm down to 8 min on that.

sir david Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 hey buddy....looking good !!! the only things that grab my attention are... td sniper plate over the top of the tk sniper plate (remove the tk one). thigh ammo strip above the knee needs rounding off at the corners. can you adjust your pack straps,as to me it seems the pack sits low on your back mate. theyr'e all an easy fix though bro!!! like the weathering good luck with your mepd deployment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont forgot to preserve it with hairspray or anything,you dont want that to loose easily Oops didn't mean to skip you.. I used some of that folk art cheap acrylic paint, an orange and grey, with a special spray concoction, and a tad of fullers earth (that stuff is crazy potent! Use only a tad!). Then if course the hairspray to seal And thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
