dashrazor's ata incinerator trooper build thread[*ATA]

[Murray1134[501st]]

i will reinforce the hot glue seam permanently soon as i come up with a good way of doing it

 

could you just run a bead of some heavier glue (E6000, ABS Glue, etc.) along the seam from the backside? Maybe use some painters tape or something to keep it from running onto the outside?

[dashrazor]

i masked off the chest armor and just used some ripped pieces of paper to mask off the heavily damaged areas

 

then airbrushed with the same black/red mix

 

 

applied the door trim and glued it in place with plumbers goop (best glue ever IMO, besides super glue ) tip: the trim may buckle when bent too much, a few drops of super glue will fix that...

 

 

finished chest armor

 

next i will door trim the rest of the armor

i am finally at the final stage of my build i just need to finish some painting and make a strapping system... i didnt know if anyone has tried this way of closing the shin backs but i gave it a try and it works great, i trooped a birthday party the other day and they held strong (though i almost passed out from heat exhaustion)

 

 

i just used 2 finishing strips and they pop fit together. i was just going to put some white tape on the inside for added strength but it holds fine without it

 

once i get a neckseal and finish my flamethrower ill be good to submit for the 501st and the hopefully eib

Didn't know Marlboro's were screen accurate.

[dashrazor]

got the last of the major parts painted and started on the snaps and velcro .. i recycled all the velcro from old blood pressure testers i got when i worked at a hospital ( i had a deal with the janitor ) it is super high quality stuff. i am hopefully going to finish masking and painting the red detail bits today

Just a perfect flamethrower dude !

 

I've almost finished my own incinerator and I wonder if you have more photos from your weapon or if you are planning to make some replicas of it ?

 

Your armor seems to be great too but I saw that you've two shoulder parts. I saw that the incinerator haven't got any shoulder part uner the pauldron

 

Keep the pics comming ! I can't wait to see the next steps

if you want a flamethrower just send me a pm i can build one to suit your needs

[stevechewbacca[501st]]

PM sent

[Pyro[TK]]

Looks great

[dashrazor]

pretty much done

 

i had a strap come undone on my back plate

 

[tkrestonva[TK]]

Woah!

 

Great job - especially with the pauldron & flamethrower!

[Daetrin[Admin]]

Saw the thread in the GML area - you should be an easy pass for both 501st, and when that's accepted - EIB as well methinks

 

Super job

 

Some minor tweaks though for when you next suit up:

1. Fix chest/back strap on right

2. Add butt to cod strap to keep that "tail" from danging down

3. Drop boxes could be 1/8" higher

4. Ideally do a little scuffing

[RogueTrooper[TK]]

Wicked armor.... But, I think it needs some battle damage too

[bluefunoodle311[501st]]

Are you still making/selling the flamethrower? About to start my own Incinerator build here shortly and that is the only component I am missing. Tried to PM with no joy. 

 

Thanks in advance!
