Guest TK-2416 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Still missing the helmet and boots.. Ran completely out of Woodland earth... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nice-biscuit Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 I think you have added more colour! I think you had it spot on before with the chest plate. I think it is too much now IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TK-2416 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Better light for the pics... Got this today: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolf Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Very NICE!!! work bro . I like your weathering, and pouch too. Will you give a small weathering job too, i have done it on my replica mp40 dyed black canvas ones. And happy whit it. One small thing, the metal dots on the pouch, are silver. Just give it a quick sand paper job, and you are there. Remember to take off the velcro on the back, and lower down the stripe boxes on the right leg.

Guest TK-2416 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Thanks!! Totally missed out on the velcro part on the back.. removed it but I need new paint before I can correct it 100%... Dont know what happend with the power cell on the thigh when shooting pics.. Too happy with the black Humbrol when painting the MP40.. I did as you suggested and sanded it down, so the metal dots are silver.. When I have the new Woodland paint I will weather it a bit.. Thanks for pointing it out!! So outstandings right now: Butt piece to be corrected. Boots to be corrected Pounch weathering Helmet weathering... Got the canvas shoulder strips today from Gundamzeppelin - thanks bro!!

Guest TK-2416 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 So guys! been updating the weathering and here are some new pics.. I know I know.. the belt... I need to place some velcro on the ab part to hold it up... Will work on it.. Didnt see before I saw the pics on the computer (after taking of the armor) ...

dutchy Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I have been reading this topic over and over and it is a great thing that you have documented all your progress. All I can say is a job truly well and greatly done And also because it is a TE2 makes it more interesting. It seems that Rolf has gotten a TE2 brother in arms now I hope to shake your hand one day when I come over for a visit and check out that killa armor of yours. Keep up the good work, but with Rolf having your back that shouldn't be a problem. Enjoy the armor and all the trooping you will do with it!!

Guest TK-2416 Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 So yesterday my new HF MG-34 was released from the Danish Customs - finally - after more than a week!!! So convertion to DLT-19 started - disk, ammo clip, t-tracks and wire: The Hyperfirm MG-34 from Sci-Fire is the best I have seen - light and sharp details... I highly recommend this!!! So all I need now is to get some photos and then apply for service... Cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolf Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Really nice work bro, love mine too. Very nice!!! work as all ways- Every thing looks right, tracks, disc, feeder box . (maybe paint over the pistol grip whit semi black humbrol again, so there is no silver on it. And paint over the wood, whit bakelite ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
