Front-a-Little Posted May 26, 2013 Report Posted May 26, 2013 On behalf of my buddy, who has been a silent member of this forums for a couple of months, I created this build thread. Armor is a 1.5mm ESB kit by TM. We are halfway through the build, I'd say, so this first post is basically a pic dump to show what we have up to now. Leg parts ready, biceps glued (the kit in the box is mine, for comparison) Forearms coverstrip measuring Sewed parts What's left for assembly Quote
Palpatine1977 Posted May 26, 2013 Report Posted May 26, 2013 Looks amazing so far, good work GL on the rest of the build looking forward to more updates Quote
Minuteman Posted May 26, 2013 Report Posted May 26, 2013 I also have an eye on TM´s sweet 1,5 mm armor..... Good progress, keep it up Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted May 26, 2013 Report Posted May 26, 2013 Looking good so far can't wait to see more Quote

Front-a-Little Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Posted June 14, 2013 Update of our latest building session: Leg parts completely done, arm parts done, shoulder bells and shoulder strips need to be attached and then, although not finished, it's already wearable, CE2 trooper count +1 Quote
Front-a-Little Posted June 27, 2013 Author Report Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) Getting somewhere.... Guess we got the wrong detonator face here If you're interested in the different detonator styles, check this thread: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/24344-which-detonator-face-is-the-right-one/ Edited June 29, 2013 by Front-a-Little Quote

Front-a-Little Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Posted July 11, 2013 Here are the application pics we did this weekend. Still some fixes here and there. Bringing the back plate up by shortening the white elastic shoulder strips Bringing the shoulders more towards the chest plate by shortening the black elastic straps The left drop box is misaligned because our shiny new brother forgot to put the elastic between snap and rivet Comments !
