Amancue Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 So, I recently picked up an almost finished ATA TK from a friend and am in the process of finishing it. the kit sat out on his back porch for quite some time and was quite dusty so I decided I'm going to turn it into a TD. I'm looking to troop both of them at DragonCon this year look forward to Trooping w/ the lot of ya. oh btw I'll have some pics up of whats been done so far soon just got it home today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amancue Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 so here's the current status of my armor Things I have remaining to do on the kit is get a Diamond Knee Plate,Pauldron, Ammo Pouches and Gloves Close the backs of my thighs and shins, need some white velcro swap out the black shoulder straps for TD white ones, get the cloth for the belt finish the closure for the side, then paint it a unified shade of white detail and weather it.

Felice Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Don't use velcro for closing the shins if possible. Use the original method. And the tights are closed with glued stripes on both sides;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I actually used white Velcro for the back of my shins. I personally don't like the original method, but if you use a thin strip of Velcro, you cant see it.... And good luck and have fun with your build!!!!

I build mine for function during long troops, so the Velcro works great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
