I have one of the Gordinator cisterns I was going to list for sale , I never modified it. I paid like $40 plus shipping shipping in us should be less than $5 I would think
-
that is a great price they were at least $100 more when they produced them
-
quick question , Pretty sure the answer is no but hey.. worth asking.. Adding the hinges to the radio as long ast it does not change the look of the radio is passable for SWAT correct?

Hey I am more west coast Tpa Squuad but am willing to drive! We have tickets for Orlando Megacon for Friday and Saturday . I hated to miss the parade this year but I had to fill a special request for Vader at the Sarasota parade the same day.

Swat does require specific emulation of the chosen trooper. I personally like the fullers earth in a couple methods , paint on wet and clean most off then follow up with the final applying dry to wet hairspray and finishing off with a good coat of hairspray. Then whenever, if ever you want to change your weathering wash it and it will come off. Dutchy hit the nail on the head do what you like most. What you want it t look like.

Waiting *impatiently* on my armor. Not many here have done a full commission, so I'm unsure of how the process works. In other words, am I in a queue for most of the 6 to 8 weeks and then they build towards the end? Is it being built now and it takes them time to do it as they get time from their other projects? Will they post a status update to my 'Processing' order status when they actually start building? Will I receive some photos of the build in progress?
I haven't emailed them since my measurements. I don't want to wear them out. lol
In the mean time I would buy some fullers earth to add weathering to the kit. RS typically only does a single color in acrylic . Fullers earth or grout works great. Trooperbay sells cheap packs in 3 colors

Yeah, i think i own the very first radio he sold in kit form. I have since finished my build but was holding pack for his decals.
Haven't heared if this run takes place after he posted his interest thread... i'm still very interested foremost in the dial and SONIX decal!
send him a pm either here and see if there are any extras. The run was back in november

Makes sense. For swat level I’d have to replicate one sandtrooper, correct? Thus the paint application in which you are talking would make that a ton easier. Thanks
On 2/4/2018 at 10:00 PM, henselmonster said:Depends on the build. I think a combo of paint and fullers/grout looks best. The paint is good for doing the weathering details, specific patterns or shapes you are trying to recreate. The fullers and grout if good for just all over weathering and for giving everything a dusted look.
Best advice ever! I have not went to swat level yet, but I used a darker grey/black acrylic paint in the nooks and cranny's a little shape here and there. I used the sponge/paint brush on method with the fullers earth diluted in water and then cleaned lots off sponging and dabbing then finished up with the hairspray, dry brush/dry fullers spritz/dusting method came out great.

Yep, i can only echo that! Best radio around, he also offers pre-build radios which look amazing.
But since you get a RS Sandtrooper/backpack you might ask them for one of his radios as an upgrade.
RS does the european market for the Wwodman radios as far as i know....so that shouldn't be a problem!
He and rob went in together on the sonic if I am not mistaken , they just are not using it on the packs yet that I know of. I got the whole kit that he makes with the box covering and switches and it's a beauty. When I get to finally building out my pack.. it's the crown jewel for sure. He recently did a run for the decals too.

Hey John , speaking of which .. I think I saw that you added a plexi plate on the dial of yours right? What was the source?

I'm trying to put together a list (for the future) on makers of some of these accessories and kits. Where did you get the woodman ? Are there any other makers for building packs I should be aware of?
Woodman is a prop maker here, he is also on The dented helmet . I believe he has just reduced the price. There are a few out there that sell all the parts needed.

It will for sure and then you will really appreciate the difference between them. Here is a good shot of the RS radio and the woodman sonic cast.

I Have an RS kit. it is amazing , every wart and blemish . fantastic. I would echo the back pack. Good for basic and for now PO but swat it would be to much to get there . Honestly you can do a lot better with a self built or one from a vendor like crook knight. The rs pack is small in comparison to the original parts. I personally thought.. pft how off could it be.. ALOT several inches in every direction for most of the parts. Once I have original type parts in hand I understood.
-
I would love to see some stickers, something to add to my roll around. Maybe a detachment or deployed level flag. A racing shirt in a new color. Maybe some love to our new CRL Magma's . Hats, Tumblers, Patches and coins oh my . All generic suggestions but every sandy has a wish list.

As soon as we finish moving.. I have all my parts for the build, That woodman is the crown jewel for sure. If I can ask where did you get the acyclic disc from ?

Ross walmsley , RWA creations . I contacted him on Facebook messenger. Sent out pretty quick but shipping was long from the uk. Tell him to send regular post , cost a couple bucks extra but way better than the parcel to go…
Part is on the left compared to an anovos on the right . Looks great imo

Could not see well if that’s what he did. I was thinking of doing both sets but Leary taking a drill to my beautiful woodman radio lol! I was surprised at how much larger it really was compared to my rs prop master.
