my AM armor build

[Rystan]

 

PGHtoolman found this idea yesterday too from Ales's helmet build: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/24950-ales-anh-stunt-ata-helmet-assembly/page-2#entry314171

 

I incorrectly attributed this to Tim/PGHtoolman, but it was in fact Rick/StarFox2010 here: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/28109-ricks-am-armor/page-3#entry356531.  Sorry guys!

Random thought, could we double up the provided lens roll to make it harder to see in?

I've been thinking of doing that and it might make it a little sturdier. I haven't been able to work on much been busy still need to get some acetone so I can make the paste to fix my extra holes

[Shank_O_Potomus]

Yeah the paste works great!

Unfortunately I don't have time to work on fine details such as painting etc right now. I go back to college in about 12 days so I'm trying to get all of the major components sized and assembled first while I have the tools and space. I can worry about the rest at school.

I was given good advice from someone in my local garrison take your time and don't rush it a mistake can be expensive.

The painting aspect had me all freaked out nervous but once you get the hang of it, it is not that bad. I did the main parts on my AM helmet and a few more gray coats then those pesky stripes/lines. Good brushes and a nice rag!

No, contact TG and let him know you have two left (or right) shins, hes working on sending everyone the correct one.
