hpdblues Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 AWESOME! Bro. While you're waiting for the ABS cement and industrial velcro to dry - brush-up on your photographic skills! Document your entire journey to the "dirt-side". (Devilish laughter ala Mr. Vincent PRICE) Guns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Absolutely. I'm done but dirt and am a good chunk through my pack. I wish I had taken pictures along the way, but now it's too late. I know there's a made rush before Halloween, but taking those few extra moments to capture it will be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PNerves Posted October 24, 2005 Author Share Posted October 24, 2005 I'll do my best. No Halloween rush, so it'll be nice and slow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD7377 Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 lol. what do you know. the same size box they always come in. (sorry running joke) I had one of the original boxes (with the printed F/X logo) that were twice as big as the ones currently in use! Happy times ahead Paul...happy times!

jpbasso Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 I was afraid to start working on it for days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Could be worse. I bought my kit back in 2001 and never fully completed it until March of this year. How's that for procrastination? (And why yes, March of this year is when I discovered the 501st and had a good reason to finish it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PNerves Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 So, I had a day off yesterday and after finishing up the Lewis and working on my pack, and then taking stuff out of the box, and then putting it back in, and then looking at the box, and then watching some telly, and then taking out some stuff out of the box, then putting it back in, and then putting my blaster in the holster, and then taking stuff out of the box again and then putting a Devo tape in the tape player I got started... http://pnerves.com/buildingarmor.htm I will try to keep this up.

PNerves Posted December 12, 2005 Author Share Posted December 12, 2005 A couple more short days of work. Trying to just take my time and do one thing at a time... slowly. Besides, it was to WAY cold to work in an un-heated garage for too long... Heh... http://pnerves.com/buildingarmor.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PNerves Posted December 29, 2005 Author Share Posted December 29, 2005 A couple more days of work. I'm really glad I've decided to go straight weathered on this, because my armor is getting pretty beat up- and the mistakes... yeah. Anyway, I have run into real trouble with the leg pieces- I just can't seem to make them work... and I glued the thigh shims on the wrong side! Advice please http://pnerves.com/buildingarmor.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PNerves Posted January 9, 2006 Author Share Posted January 9, 2006 Woo hoo!!! Another finished element! The upper torso is done! I'm getting close. The legs are nearly done, but not all that great. The ab and back are next... and the bucket. More worrying ahead... http://pnerves.com/buildingarmor.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
