sithlord23 Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Hey all, well since my 1st post last week, I've gotten a little more done in terms of gettin' dirty. I finished up my full back armor, ab armor, my calves, thighs, and the box belt & thigh boxes. I'm pretty stoked on how the calves & ab plate came out. I also made my own corrected Ab plate, out of sintra. I made the ab buttons too, but they seem a little big, whattya think ? Some of the weathering, if you look close on some of the pieces, has real sand glued to it. I know that sounds like it could be weird, but, I did it real light, and just in the nooks & crannies of the armor. And, I think it's cool. Nothing is glued together yet. I'm working on glue tonight. The thighs & calves seen together in the pics are just taped together for reference. Thanks for looking, and if anyone has any criticism, good, bad, ugly, I'd like to hear. Well, here are the pics!

Ilovesand&dirt Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Again(GT boards) EXCELLENT WORK! Setting the bar extra high when it comes to the dirty look. It looks like you just came off patrol from the Judland Wastes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SethB6025 Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Good work, the buttons look perfect. They should be bigger than the regular TK buttons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sithlord23 Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 Hey guys, thanks for the comments. They are much appreciated! As for the buttons, I guess they are about the right size. They seemed a little big at first, but the more I see 'em, the more I like 'em. The buttons themselves, they are silver buttons I got from Michaels crafts. I cut the backs of them down a little bit, so they didn't protrude as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
