Raven6056 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Ok, pictorial progress report time. What you see is a fully body strapped TK... it will not be a sandy untill I complete the Abb plate mod and replace the sniper knee with a diamond! Helmet painting is about 50% complete, armor weathering about 10%!!! Armor is vintage FX (At 6ft 4" Tall its just about the Only TK suit that can be stretched out to cover my frame!), bucket is a new EFX, T21 from the woodchuck ... and I have a completed "move-Along" backpack waiting to be weathered a little bit more. The weathering and abb mod will keep me busy for a week or so while I wait for a Diamond to cross the Pacific care of MEPD's very own "Gordonator" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordonator Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Hey Russ, I think the belt can be cut thinner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven6056 Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Belt trimming underway, as is some revised strapping on the arm armor to reduce rotation issues... more weathering required as well to blend all part together. Its a work in progress... thus far im happy with it! just getting those Almost but not-quite there blues! I have a week to tie it all together...our garrison GML is just down the road and we are blitzing this sucker to get it up en running... then a relay for life event to give it a test drive on saturday night !
