did you do a base layer of a duller white before you did the weathering ? Or just the matte clear coat after the fact ?
I did the matte after I had already weathered the armor.
-
I sprayed my NE (same maker as AM) with a matte clear coat so the weathering would not come off over time.
-
Excellent replication!
-
The paint rubbing off the backpack frame is unavoidable. I sealed my frame with clearcoat and it still happened. Its the friction of the frame rubbing against the armor as you walk or take in on and off.
Just call it natural weathering.
-
Im very intrigued about having no bars across the pack frame.
How exactly do you zip tie the packs to the frame? Where are the connection points located on the fram? On the the seed trays?

Ok... a new update.
I decided to use another Doopydoos resin kit to make a Bapty style Sandtrooper blaster. Its the third build like this Ive done. (Second one waa with a 3D printed blaster) Each time I learned a new difference between your typical ANH e11 and the ones used for the Tattooine filming... thanks to the frequent Bapty builders on here!
Here is the culmination of the build. I prefer a dirty/ rusty look for these. One day I'll repaint my T21 to match.
-
Great details you pointed out with the weathering!
-
Trooperbay decals fit Crashmann radios. This is my old one.

Nice collection, bro!
I also have an ANH Vader (and a bikerscout). Is that an SPFX set?
Great looking Scout! Love that weathering!
My Vader helmet is a Darth Ugly and my armor is Darth Stone.
I recently upgraded my capes to KevVader but don't have a pic yet. I was my final Vader upgrade for the foreseeable future.

Is that an ANH Vader?! We just got one in my garrison. Red lenses are so cool!
Thanks!
Yes, they are red lenses from Fenix Props.

Those handguards were worn on the "hero" costumes by Luke and Han.
I dont believe the sandtroopers were those specific handguards.

That's why it's sticking out at a weird angle.

Maybe he's just happy to see us. Lol!

I think the thongs are the wrong color of blue.
Lol!

Paul, I don't want you to feel like I called you out or keeping you from reaching your goals. Just want you to be squared away so all Police Officers meet the standard.
No worries! It's all good here!
I misread the standards, that's all.
It will be simple to remove the decals and repaint...just need the time.
I may even just get another helmet to better replicate the Roadblock Captain anyway. (I've been wanting to do that anyway)
I'll be back!lol!
-
Thank you gentlemen!
(Don't know how I overlooked that detail)
I will get on it in a couple of weeks when my work lets out for summer.
See you then!
-
If those are decals for the tear drops and traps, you'll need to hand paint them.
For PO?
I thought they had to be painted only for SWAT.
These are decals. The border has a "hand painted" look to it.

Neckseal = Darman
This photo is from October 2015. I hope you can see I brought the shoulders in a little. My reason was so that the shoulders wouldn't droop down while wearing the backpack. (Even though it appears that some sandtroolers had droopy shoulders in the film anyway. Lol)
-
Thank you for looking at these pics Felix.
I will get you a pic of my neckseal.
These pictures are mostly from April 2015 when I submitted to my GML. I played around with my shoulders since then and have a picture from October 2015 I can post. I trooped this for the first time in Feb. 2016. I may have a picture from then too as I continued to play around with the spacing. I will be trooping this again in a couple weeks so I can make sure to take a new pic then too. In any case I will get you the pics!

While building this armor over the course of 2014/2015 I tried my best to weather it and add details that best resembled the "Roadblock Captain". I'm not planning to go SWAT any time soon though as I know some of my details like helmet and backpack detailing needs to be changed or swapped out.

Happy birthday!

Recieved mine! Thanks!

I kind of think it looks like part of the bottom of a plastic tray. The little lines where the liquid collects.
Like a smaller version of the garden seed trays.
Perhaps they were mini trays for individual plants or seedlings?
