Nice work Pen66. looks good. Did you follow TK409's tutorial...? I did an MG-15 very similiar looking.
-
the blackening.

I used the inside of a Jofa hockey helmet. It looks pretty tech and keeps my bucket on nice and snug and it's comfy too.
-
Dude looks sweet, I need to get working on some type of heavy blaster.

Pen66..... is that in Penguins. 66 Mario Lemieux...? If it is. I'm feeling for you bro right now. We're not doing so good.... **** senators.. if you're like me. you've got some broken sticks laying around.
That's what it stands for. I was very sad to come home last night and see we had lost. Sigh. Its a young team with plenty of talent. Hopefully they will keep things improving next year. But that means a long depressing off season.
And I do have my fair share of broken sticks.
I watched to the end... it was heartbreaking... but if we keep things the way they are, next season we'll be even better. Sid is an AMAZING player. Glad to have found a fellow Pens fan AND sandtrooper. "it's a great day for hockey." Badger Bob

. what's that...? oh yes, you can make one for me too. impressive work, very impressive. helmet off to ya

This is an RT Mod helmet. I can do the teeth. the eyes... I'm a bit scared to do anymore. I'm not too concerned with that though. I think it came out good. I recently had an armor malfunction, where the upper piece on my chest cracked. I just got a new one and I decided to redo my dirt. Thanks for the tips everyone.
-
go to the top and bottom of the grey?Also I would suggest redoing the "tooth" paintjob so they are not connected by paint for a true ANH sandtrooper look.

dye recipe, from local WW2 costumer.
1.In a large pan mix the dye 1cup of salt and water to the manufactuers instructions 9water to dye ratio)
2. Bring the water temp. to 200deg. and mix well.
3. Immerse the pouches and boil for 15mins. keep the pouched moving in order to assure even penetration of the dye.
4. Prepare an Ice bath with crushed ice and water..temp, should be 40deg.immerse the pouches being sure they are completly covered.
5. Once they are cool..allow them to dry completely(hanging)
6. Finanlly..run them through a washing macines rinse cycle and allow to dry.

If you have an old hockey stick laying around cut some mags out of the shaft, they fit nicely in the pouches.
-
currently re-doing all my dirt.
-
They came I got'em. Now time to dye, maybe paint them.....
I hope this works...

Nice find! looks good.
-
I know the feeling, you should have just stopped for the night. But it looks good man. Nice save. remember its a sandy. beat up and dirt is what it's all about
-
heres a shot of the inside of my bucket. Orginally I hot glues the lens on, but around the eye was thin and morphed around the eye a bit and ended up buffing it out. now I just used aluminum tape. I also stripped a Jofa hockey helmet of its padding and installed it. Nice and comfey.
-
Did you get the "factory defects" ? or the "good"ones. A few troopers I know got the "factory defects" when they were offered and they turned yellow after awhile. Which is good I think for a sandy. just curious. And they are **** sexy. I wear them out on special occacions.
-
great detail on the helmet. You're working like one f those crazy nuts over on the Dented Helmet
-
great! now go roll around in the dirt!
-
Could we get a thread going dedicated to T-21. referance pictures, temps, measurments, etc? I'm working on a scratch built, could use some inside info if it's aout there.
-
I agree with Mike, Paint works the best, also stiffens it nicely.Larry and I set ours up the same way as Mike
I modified my post war leather one to add the mag loader pouch and it holds my speaker perfectly. When I paint up my canvas one I will be putting that one up for sale.

Yeah listen to Rob save you it can ...... I think he used a latex based paint , thats what i did with my canvas pouches and you only need one coat.
paint recommendations? Thanks

You're welcome wannab. I love how we all try and make our gear so nice and pretty. Then you look at the actual movie used gear and it looks like crap, or that's how this stuff would look if it was used in reality.
