Am I ready for SWAT Deployment guys last pics requested posted?

Happy Birthday and have a great day Bro

Cheers Bud keep it cold

Cheers Jay sry i didnt read it properly yes i had moded the edges bro.

I wouldnt have enough room with the knee ammo plate would require redrilling the armour which will weaken the part and leave it short and would not fit properly. I did mention this earlier screen caps show a more rounded top and bottom as they are not so clear its hard to determine the configuration of the ammo knee as the move along trooper shows more rounded at top and bottom but thats not the same for every trooper we are trying to be exact were poss. Sry picked you up wrong

Welcome to the sand pit enjoy

I had looked at moving the ammo lower but it catches the top of shin armour and is likely to cause damage to both parts during trooping. Also looking at the screen caps it looks right for the alley check Captain its rounded and not sitting in line with the bottom of the thigh armour.

No probs Jaun will do Sir will need to wait for someone later to take some pics of me in armour will post helmet shots minus the frown mesh Here goes the helmet shot minus frown mesh. Hope these help

No problem Jaun will have that sorted today and post later bro An easy fix then onto the SWAT locker room As requested Sir mushroom cap positioned in line with burger stackers.

Jaun Sorry forgot to add the backpack pic as you see it hangs lower at the back. Hope these help for SWAT

Thanks Rolf looking at the screen caps could well be the same pouch looking at the film again defo on the type and the way it sits as he checks the door and moves on. Dont know if they were tucked in behind the straps but looking at the pics i cant see so i would opt for this.

Guys E11 done Shoulder pouch Backpack mod /weathering swap over of stinger forgot to add earlier.excuss the light still to show weathering but it is done on all parts. Still to put on Jaun will need to do later as no one at home to help out with pics. Hope this now up to scratch for SWAT Guy's.

Cheers guys Jaun you are right I have redone the blaster and not reweathered it after my incident at my last troop that will be done today the backpack has been repainted also but not weathered on the new parts no prob some easy fixes. Will post these later cheers guys. Dave cheers for the comments bro.

Well thanks for the comments and advice i have now completed all the mods to the backpack, ammo pouch, pauldron and some additional e11 shots hope these are enough for SWAT deployment. Here goes my Blaster is pipe and resin built by myself. Circle added to Trooper 1 Pauldron and adjusted tool pouch on ammo pouch. Backpack mods Lab pipe an additional mushroom cap on and the recolouring of the seed trays 3 black on blue which is top rear. Hope these pics all help as close as i think you can get with the ref pics cheers for the extra Pics Rolf.

Thanks Jaun I am still in for SWAT some parts might seem a put off for some troopers but that is why you Guys are here now on to the next part. Thanks Bro JK

At the time it was the only rebel we had. Its was made by the rebel in question smart costume close attention to detail.

Guys quick question some of the mods on the comparison shots could cause some major damage to armour as they where worn for the movie at short period shots this is why we see gaffer tape and other mods as we wear our armour for a lot of events this may have some serious issues ie constant damage and possible weaken of armour parts. This is just a point still going swat . The requirements section may need adjustment with regards to particular characters and equipment. ie backpacks they all show the same config in the blue colours with mods to some boxes on the outer not the main boxes attached to the frame. This may cause some confusion for this purpose. Jaun your right the mods could have taken me on another direction with being able to change the pack configuration or character. I want to stay as close to the character as possible. This is just my opinion hope I don't offend anyone that is not the purpose of this point as we all put a lot into this. Another point some parts we modify and reproduce to an acceptable standard we have to remember these items were used almost 34yrs ago in a galaxy far far away pardon the punt and can't always be exact or sourced. Cheers JK Now back to work

Guys Thanks for the info and screen caps i have redone the backpack to black watched the film again hard to see but ooks very close with the pipe added. Also changed the side plate as shown thanks Jaun. Here is some pics Ammo pouch next

No problem Jaun thanks for the comments Yes it is TM i have copied as close to Alley captian were possible with the screen caps. I will make the mods required didnt spot the lab pipe off easy fix. Will post up when completed. Thanks again JK
