Lou210 Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 So I noticed I haven't updated this thread on the last progress I made...so I got some resin parts from a maker on this page for the T-21 blaster (BFG) lol and so far this is what it looks like as well as I made some progress on my packSent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hausi Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 You've made some nice progress mate, that T21 is going to be awesome! One thing though: the colour on your trays is too blue and too glossy, if you want to keep it screenaccurate, it will have to be more like a battleship grey with a satin finish.

Lou210 Posted April 27 Author Share Posted April 27 Alright it's been years and finally with more free time opened up as well as inspiration, I started working on my pack again. I started with repainting the seed trays+bottles, it was mentioned by someone on here that they were too blue and glossy, these are now matte gray and black parts are matte black( need to paint Braxton box still) The gray kinda looks glossy cause the light (weathering will knock it down more) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwam Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Looks good!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou210 Posted April 27 Author Share Posted April 27 Some more painting of the black parts, also this is a Crashman kit and I'm using a different Braxton box but it hands off the seed tray and don't know if maybe the seed trays are too small or if the Braxton box is off.

Lou210 Posted April 30 Author Share Posted April 30 I replaced the abs back pack horizontal supports with aluminum since the weight was making the seed boxes jiggle and sag. also replaced the black hose i was using for the stinger for a pvc one since I had extra from making the capacitors, i will be using Octoarm's idea of filling the pvc capacitors (1/2inch pvc cut into 5 2inch pieces) with tin foil and then hot glue. Also keep in mind I'm not going for complete movie prop accuracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou210 Posted May 1 Author Share Posted May 1 capacitors done and everything assembled just need to weather everything, I'm also waiting for the radar dish to show up. Keep in mind this isnt very accurate and built it more for trooping rather than to be movie prop accurate 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lou210 Posted May 2 Author Share Posted May 2 Alight while I waited for my radar dish to show up i went ahead and did an initial weathering of the pack using acrylic paints, unbleached titanium and a little burnt umber mixed with water. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou210 Posted Monday at 12:04 AM Author Share Posted Monday at 12:04 AM Alright Tupperware lid came in the day before May the 4th so I was able to finish the pack just in time for my first troop in 5 years with the new Garrison. here is a few pics from May the 4th Asthma awareness day at the OKC Zoo and also redid my helmet interior its nothing fancy but its comfortable.
