i was, but it is going to the UK (lights and sounds are not permitted there) the next one will have a new sound circuit i am working on

this is my first build of this kind, i will better document the next time i make one (now that i have the scale and most of the details pinned. if you need any tips on making one just LMK i made this template for the barrel vents ill post up more specs when i get a chance...

i am almost finished building this BIG GUN i wanted to start the new year out with a bang!! i also have a bunch of new screecaps from battlefront 2 i will post up soon

congrats!

and with that, Approved! nice work trooper!

google ester foam it is used for sound insulation and packing crates also sears and lowes carry black foam floor mats ---------

very clean build i cant see anything missing, i would add rivets on the ab/kidney for the final touch but it not a necessity approved! nice work trooper

this hand plate mod should work as well but Sonnenschein's are the best!! http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=13491&st=0&p=163147&fromsearch=1entry163147

your strapping seems to need some tweaking you should have straps connecting the cod and but plate, this will prevent the tail look and cod from protruding. also you need straps to keep the chest and back together. there are other small strapping malfunctions as well. if you re adjust your back and chest the shoulder straps should stay attached with Velcro just fine, but you may need to heat and bend them slightly. the armor looks great! just a few strapping fixes and you should be good to go perhaps someone in your garrison can assist you, it is hard to get it set up by yourself.

ya i looked at sears for one of those sanders after i first saw this

looks good from those shots

if you sand it down with wet dry sandpaper and primer/paint it, the bumps shouldn't be very noticeable (if at all). also if you just replace the back, the parts may not fit correctly. most legitimate armor types differ in size and shape slightly be sure to look through all the ATA build threads it is a nice helmet when assembled and painted

if you test the paint, be sure to test it pre-thinned for spray application. the paint alone may be fine, but when thinned for spraying it may not. some enamel thinners/reducers react to plastic badly... hope it works!

i am really liking this build already great work!!! this is looking to be quite informative.

i was thinking of making a Dremel use and safety guide it may prevent this from happening

good to go approved! and happy holidays

belt on, showing the split.

looking good! just need a clear shot showing the split under the belt and a action shot or two

Approved ! new animal control officer?

this will make RT EIB # 6

just another shot form the rear with the belt on (showing the cut butt plate below the belt), and a action shot for your EIB photo lookin good

always paint after gluing, otherwise the glue bonds to the paint not the plastic and like stated above 400-600 grit wet/dry is good, i use a sanding sponge a lot these days, they last a lot longer

it has several different sounds that can be altered (pitch and speed) i only demonstrated a couple after the holidays i will start work on a new sound board with programmable sounds/ usb interface and super bright LED's i need something more specialized for HWT bazookas

you can always shoot for dual EIB heavy trooper + ANH or ESB

i added a fully functional control panel and internal electronics (with a DIY plasma generator) VID (all blasters are kid tested and trooper approved) JK
