rhapsodyred99[TK] Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 Hello all! I am seriously thinking of doing a SE sandy after getting inspired by Juan's lid build. I know they are nearly universally hated but what can I say I like an underdog! And my centurion IS a ROTJ so obviously I am a bit warped... XD Anyway the shots on look sir droids and the anatomy of a dewback documentary are from the DVD release I am pretty sure. I was hoping someone with the Blu ray might be able to take some screens for me of the SE sandies. Really need some detail shots of backpacks and the rear traps but any thing may help to clear it up as they are not just straight ROTJ tks with new packs. From what I can tell they are assembled the same way as a ROTJ TK. But they have black soles and possibly no stripes on the rear traps. Also no TD or holster. It looks like they are using ROTJ E11s. The pack is a totally new design and the Pauldron has 2 styles one with padded ribs on the neck line and one that is flat. No pouches and normal tk sniper with rivets holding it on. So on a scale of 1-10 how crazy am I to even think about this? Quote

sskunky Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 I think your totally bonkers! I was going to do one myself but never got round to it yet. Love to see this come together. Quote
bjsavage7[TK] Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 I think it's a great idea! Go for it! I haven't been on MEPD in a while, but I think there are a few good reference images there. Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 Also consider that their pauldrons are not the same. More like a cut up piece of black neoprene than the originals. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4 Beta Quote
rhapsodyred99[TK] Posted July 4, 2013 Author Report Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) Yep actually looks like 2 styles of pauldron one is more like the old style with padding and the other is flat either rubber or neoprene or something. This was posted by TM and it shows the 2 types. The padded one sort of looks like my trooperbay pauldron upside down... Not a lot of research has been done on these guys because most fans hate em.

troopermaster Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 Maybe the other two are just inside out? Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 Could be. I recall seeing some pretty good close ups in that anatomy of a dewback. Quote
