P3laton3 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Love it! the weathering is spot on!!! Only one little thing that I would change is the little scratch/crack under the left cheek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vf2112 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Sorry to say I feel the chest n shoulder need a lot work work to replicate the weathering Not right at all in my opinion Not enough all over, to light and makes chest look like a big dark blob with nothing around it But might be just some pics as others look a lot better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vf2112 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Plus are we implementing changes to swat now Should boots be black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opi wan Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 If I could take a word for Manny here: Take a look at this picture, it was the refference for his weathering, because here you can see the most of the trooper at once. For this specific one the weathering was changed untill the shots on set, here you can see were the "blob" was made! If you had followed his building thread you might had seen that his boots are painted black chelsea´s, he used original bracked strapping, split rivets, covers stripe´s on arms and legs, no FX parts........ just my 2 cents.

Daelma Posted April 14, 2015 Author Share Posted April 14, 2015 okay okay.... i removed the stratch from the RIGHT side.... but ... those Pics from the RIGHT side are ALL OFFSET .... NOT on Screen... when offset pics are also important to be swat... im think about to make a " Look Sir Droids " without Shins... p.s during the waiting time for the application ive done another Dude for the Sandpit...

Daelma Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 No the Stripes are not a Decal ... Where painted with humbrol AND now * move along .... are u GMO ? no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vf2112 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 No I'm SWAT It's my job to help you do the best you can And due to the demand by members to make SWAT more accurate and agreed on such things As baptys and the such for new approvals then you are required to use screen accurate boots which are black boots painted white for SWAT Which I am , are you? No So back to the tube stripes I don't believe the trooper emulated had a square weathering mark around his tube stripes where the weathering has stuck to the decal template glue this would need remedy also Personally would like to see more close well lit pics of the weathering to pack n bapty as well as bapty detail Thankyou Also as we can see here The weathering pattern on the pauldron is completely wrong and in my opinion not go without attention Sorry I haven't chimed in sooner but as there are many SWAT applications lately I've become a little mixed up at which I'm following I'm sure you want the best armour you can achieve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3laton3 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Hi Vince, I agree with you on several things about the weathering but I wouldn't be too picky.In my opinion Manny has done great job so far and few little tweaks might be required to be top notch (Manny be patient) eventhough that will be just for his own pride.As far as I remember the SWAT approval is still based on the old requirements.I haven't seen the Bapty and the Black boots dyed white becoming mandatory for SWAT the debate is still open though.If was so I'd say that ALL the old SWATs approved should re-do their "Calvary" to be deployed again and show the improvements as well.

Vf2112 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 There are quite a number of things added in each and every approval p3laton3 Each approval is judged harder than the last and many of the requirements are NOT listed in swat CRL If it concerns costume and screen accurate and we can think or or notice it we step up the bar with each approval The newest issue is baptys which have also been agreed on and boots are a must if we're doing blasters As for old/past reviews that's not the case once approved there's no need for upgraded As they've done there time and it's through their build that new thing and most of the current standards have risen I must say I'm a little surprised that some of the ppl pushing for SWAT to be more challenging/accurate are the same that are disagreeing with GML decisions and saying near enough is good enough It's one or the other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vf2112 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 According to this link you have black boots? Wouldn't it be easier to say that and put that particular attest to rest than question why I'm trying to help you be the best you can be Now get onto that pauldron and anything else you can think of and get approved bro And I'm loving the kakey helmet nice touch Finish what you started so well That's it for me Thanks for the link opi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthChridan Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 These guys who shout" more accurate for swat" are these guys who always update their gear....in all details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3laton3 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Each approval is judged harder than the last Which makes the SWAT process a bit unfair for the new ones that wanna rise that ladderThe newest issue is baptys which have also been agreed on and boots are a must if we're doing blastersSo if I am running for SWAT with another character which has a DLT19 or T-21 or MG-15 should I show my Bapty anyway? And where is the screen accuracy here? I must say I'm a little surprised that some of the ppl pushing for SWAT to be more challenging/accurate are the same that are disagreeing with GML decisions and saying near enough is good enoughIt's one or the otherI am not disagreeing with anyone here and I think the the Police Officer and SWAT processes should be closed to the DO and armourers only.
