Congrats bro

The Old one is TM too, but the older version

After almost 2 hours I am finished with my teeth and so far satisfied. I didn't get the same perspective when taking photos, but I think you know what I'm talking about. It is about the distance and height of the teeth to each other. The picture below is also "wider" than my cell phone took, so the teeth look narrower and higher on the sides. I am also of the opinion that Davin Felth has a fourth tooth gap, which you just don't see in the film images. In the pictures shown below you can see a small hole.

For the helmet I wanted to choose between TM and RS because I had both kits here. My son made the decision for me when he told me - the TM kit is his. Then the decision is made, forced to RS.

Not to say by heart would have to be counted

Congrats

Great mannequin...

Hi Luke, i think too, that the Gap is correct. Nevertheless, show the pics and i will start the Review. The rivet on the codepiece, is it white or silver? Regards bigwam

Your Backpack-built is great! One thing: I would do something on the radio to make it even more precise. The radio itself is an absolute eye-catcher. But pay attention to the leather edging and details such as the antenna, bracket and sockets What color of blue you use?

Ahhh, Braces - i don´t knew the english word for it and asked the translator

Yes, i mean this. In Germany we say "Hosenträger" And yes, a elastic strap from Chest to back is right

Urs is not at home, but i am The outer Diameter of the Mortar Tube is 68 mm and the outer Diameter of the Endcaps is 71 mm: So, 2" is to small.

Hello Raj, I had already thought about that. On the one hand, many stortroopers have these hooks so that the biceps don't slip, on the other hand, I've never seen them on sand troopers. I also studied the film images after my biceps kept sliding down a bit. But I didn't find any hooks: At that time I still put the hooks on and tore them off at the first troop because they got stuck on the backpack straps. I still found it uncomfortable and fixed the sliding biceps like this (you couldn't see it and it holds): But to answer your question: when you do SWAT, you are emulating a certain TD. So if you are looking for a TD where you can clearly see There are no hooks - like the "Move along" and the "Private" here on the pic, then you must not use any (visible) hooks.

I have attached my thighs to a belt and also wear it with suspenders, so nothing slips. Not absolutely necessary for basic but change the gloves and handguards for rubber gloves and latex parts. It just looks better. Is this an elastic band, between Chest and back?

Thanks Mikel

The same too, happy Holidays and a happy new year! Regards bigwam

Urs, absolutely great work! Amazing!!

I'll say "nice" now, but this quality wouldn't be for me.

Have a look on the WIP´s here in the Forum. I think, there are many ideas for you Regards bigwam

Hello Andrew, the thighs usually have to be glued at the back. no Velcro. You slip into your thighs like pants. Please show pictures of the entire thigh. Look here at the WIP´s. http://forum.mepd.net/index.php?/forum/3-sandtrooper-armor/ Regards bigwam

Wow, ok - i will do so!

Remaining work done. Shims shortened, screws inserted, rubbers glued. I also built a second pair of thighs, so I don't have to take off the doll in the background completely if I want to put on the old trooper. Now the helmet is still missing, next construction site.

What secret? The colour? Today i had the first fitting. Everything fits perfectly. Biceps, forearms are only fixed with tape, now I'll stick the rubber on. Then shorten the belt and the shims. Then I'll think about the helmet.

Today, a little work on the kidney. Yesterday glued, today filled, sanded and painted. But only in the grinding area. Found a color that exactly matches the ABS.
