    I'd be surprised if they're adding the indents. It would make more sense they were already on the trays they used (their original use was possibly to secure a lid to the tray maybe?)

    Difficult to tell from the available reference photo's

    Good luck with the build Ralf.

    Thanks Steve, i will try my best with the build!:salute:

    Yes, the available screen caps are very difficult to identify. Only thing to me, the indents or round circles seen on the right upper box are located in different positions! The upper circle is placed more offset to the one below!:unsure:

    So i`m thinking they were not originally on the box. In some other screenshots the round circles are not clearly visible or can be seen!

    I think if i`m going SWAT for the Private Trooper in the door check scene i think i have to add them!?

    Hello fello troopers,

    my new costume project for the 501st will be the Alley door check private with the #2 backpack.:salute: I started collecting parts and doing a lot of research especially about the pack, which is not choosen that often, so there're are not that much reference builds around!:wacko:

    First what caught my eye is that the #2 pack uses the 3 rib seed trays on the lower section but i was not sure about the little rectangular box on the left upper seed tray under the box where the hose connects! In other builds i`ve seen there are 2 round details built in ( which is maybe possible when you look closer at the trooper arriving at the cantina entrance )!

    But a closer look at the private heading to the docking bay you can clearly seen that the rectangular box is the same filter box as seen on the trooper with pack #1

    where i`m unsure about are the 2 round indents that are seen on side of the right upper box (which i think they used a brexton lunch box too?:unsure:) maybe they`re adding the round indents as some kind of greeblies?

    so what do you guys think? any help and feedback is appreciated :thumbsup: 

    greetings Ralf

    Hello all,

    i want to re-introduce myself, coming back from my MEPD dark ages since 2008 :woot: ! I´m CX4996 and known as SchratVader or Schrat on several other boards.

    I want to start my research here again to start my TD build in the near future, building up a Alley door check black pauldron trooper .

    inspired by the builds of my fellow garrison mates DarthChridan, Felice and OpiWan i think SWAT is the hopefully way to go :salute:

    looking forward to go dirty

    greetings Ralf
