CrookKnight[TK] Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) The respirator model and mold are complete. This is a picture of the first resin one. Now all I have to do is add the red LED Light, paint black and install the magnets to hold onto the helmet. I am now at the point where I can put the final touches on this entire package (pack, shin armor, respirator system). Edited January 27, 2017 by CrookKnight 1 Quote

CrookKnight[TK] Posted February 4, 2017 Author Report Posted February 4, 2017 Intersting way to build this! Thanks. I am creating mold so I can reproduce. Should be done and try on everything this weekend. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk 1 Quote

joshsurf[TK] Posted February 12, 2017 Report Posted February 12, 2017 That's freakin cool mate! Just a question what's the range of movement for your head? It looks a wee bit limited? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Movement is constricted. Just have to turn your whole body when you to the side. Not to different from now. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Quote
CrookKnight[TK] Posted February 12, 2017 Author Report Posted February 12, 2017 Wait until you see version 3 that I am working on now. This will be my best one. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk 2 Quote

Daetrin[Admin] Posted February 13, 2017 Report Posted February 13, 2017 IIRC the shins are supposed to be grey? IIRC you were re-painting them - were they completed? Quote
CrookKnight[TK] Posted February 13, 2017 Author Report Posted February 13, 2017 IIRC the shins are supposed to be grey? IIRC you were re-painting them - were they completed? Shin armor has been repainted. Pictures are below.: I will also update this in Spec Ops. 1 Quote
CrookKnight[TK] Posted February 13, 2017 Author Report Posted February 13, 2017 I am building another one for a customer and have decided to make a few improvements. Below are some updated photos. For the cooling fins, I have re-scaled these, used a thicker material and added more detail: 1 Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted February 13, 2017 Report Posted February 13, 2017 Sweet. Have you submitted to your GML yet? I saw one BF Magma go through the LMO forum but no others. 1 Quote

Daetrin[Admin] Posted February 13, 2017 Report Posted February 13, 2017 OK. Let your GML know that it will need to get submitted on the Legion boards to the GML area of the forums, and there is a topic specifically for costumes with no CRL. There is already one BF magma trooper there, so you and Andreas will want to get yours in. The sooner we get good CRL photos, the sooner we can get a CRL. That said, they can still get 501st approval while the CRL is in progress. Does that make sense? 1 Quote

Magmatrooper1205 Posted February 13, 2017 Report Posted February 13, 2017 Your armor looks really nice with the dirt. Maybe i will do it at my armor. 1 Quote

CrookKnight[TK] Posted February 16, 2017 Author Report Posted February 16, 2017 Sweet. Have you submitted to your GML yet? I saw one BF Magma go through the LMO forum but no others. Paul, Due to the fact my armor is not ROTJ, I have decided not to submit my Magmatrooper for CRL consideration. At this point, I am not going to be able to build an entire new armor set for this. Oh well, it was fun making it anyways. Quote

At this point, I am not going to be able to build an entire new armor set for this. Oh well, it was fun making it anyways. No worries, I understand. If you want to keep the base armor ANH, then having this as a fun accessory set to use at cons/informal troops makes sense. But you are right, if you want 501st approval it is looking more and more that you will need to modify the ANH suit with ROTJ details, just like you need to if you are doing other Battlefront suits, e.g. adding the door trim, etc. 1 Quote

I will have the pack components next week. At that point, I can paint and assemble. and I DO have the right armor for that one. I wonder if I need to be shiny for that one or if I can keep my battle damage? Thoughts? Quote
