TK8280

Its dirt left over from the Tunisia shoot

You can just take an old sock dip it in silver paint and slide it and dab it on the areas that you would think would get dingged up more than others, such as the corners and such its easy his is a pic of my old kenner blaster... My RC Pistol done in a similar fashion some more pics...

Did Scott ever want to put ths to a vote? It would settle it for now at least

wow, what a great idea, can we get the mixture also along with the pics? sort of a step buy step?

drop boxes, but it does support the theory that the TK's didn't actually "die", the armor absorbed the blast, but the body was knocked out from the blast

I agree with Terrell, we don't all have the figures of the original TK's

Happy thanksgiving erveryone!

I didn't show you all my weapon...

Ok, my project is still slowly moving foreword... I've been trying to fit my thighs properly, but they haven't come out looking right yet, My shins have been painted, and I am still contemplating making them completely seamless My forearms and biceps are prepped for bondo... My elbows are done except for weathering, BUT they still don't look that great to me

Yeah, but the only problem with doing an EPII clone is finding a decent looking helmet

in this pic, it looks like someone puched it in between the eyes

Yeah it doesn't look right to me either imagine that the so called "New FX" helmet looks off

I think that as far as comfort level, it all depends on how you trim your armor to be an extension of your body, as for accuracy, there is a couple suits out there, but then it depends on your interpretation of "accurate"

Yeah, but I think there is too many "commanders" in the clone ranks, and there are only a few that look good IMO

Hmmm thats an interesting concept, and everything we know, do, and believe in are pre-conditioned concepts, just another item i kept a mental note of also

Good luck with you project Jacob

Awesome Joey , thanks for representing us troopers

instructions?, you don't need no stinking instructions! its TK armor, if us clones are doing our builds with no instructions, I'm sure you can knock out an easy project like TK armor with no problems brother

Yeah, hopefully it will be soon but you know how things are going brother

Yes! thanks everyone

Yeah thats about how they are suppose to look , the TK's weren't computer animated

yeah that looks good, I hope I'll find it...I am using this shade of 501st blue because my garrison mate uses it and I didn't want to have a different shade of blue if we are to be from the same legion

not yet, and I'm re-thinking getting them at all, it seams that there is NO paint that will stick to these OSCS items
