mikedwelle94[TK] Posted April 27, 2016 Report Posted April 27, 2016 You absolutely nailed it, man. There's so much more personality in a helmet like this versus a clean one. Looking forward to seeing how you do the rest of your armor! 2 Quote

mikedwelle94[TK] Posted May 23, 2016 Report Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) tried a replacement red but its too dark Are your red stripes going over the joins on your biceps? If so, you will want to sand that paint off. Those stripes should be running across the raised detail on the back of the biceps. Here's mine: Otherwise top notch work.

spotter301[501st] Posted May 23, 2016 Author Report Posted May 23, 2016 I did wonder after seeing pics but assumed it was an error as the red strip always appears on the outside in reference pics and and the strip is at the front. So does this mean they wear biceps differently? A 1/4 turn.in? Quote
spotter301[501st] Posted May 23, 2016 Author Report Posted May 23, 2016 Definitely looks like they wear the bicep differently Quote
humperdingle Posted May 27, 2016 Report Posted May 27, 2016 How many coats are you using, mate? I'm thinking a single coat is best, given the amount of scrapes and wear on the screenshots of Battlefront? 1 Quote

So does this mean they wear biceps differently? A 1/4 turn.in? No, they wear them just the same as any other trooper. 2 Quote

spotter301[501st] Posted May 27, 2016 Author Report Posted May 27, 2016 No, they wear them just the same as any other trooper. learn something new everyday 2 Quote
