Pyro's Imperial Armored Commando WIP

[DrMatt]

Has anyone made a decision about what shade of grey is being used?

[Sly11[Admin]]

Not yet.

various angles and lighting show many different shades, so unless we get some behind the scenes info from the costume builder, we will probably go with the most commonly seen gray across the limited scenes.

This doesn't mean that can't or wont get updated as more info comes to light.

So I have started my WIP and used Hycote Grey Primer, Hycote matt Black, Hycote gloss white and Auto extreme gun metal grey for the front.

Many of us are following with great interest! My helmet arrived yesterday. Let the sanding begin!!!

[Pyro[TK]]

Picking this back up! Excited to start working on this again!

Looking forward to seeing your progress, good luck

A little easier for you with a CRL now.

 

Any questions, we are here to help.

Also, please note we have updated the CRL as it was discovered a couple of elements were inadvertently left out, so always check in to make sure you have the most up-to-date version.

[Pyro[TK]]

Yeah I have it open when I work and I’ll be doing the red “Captain” version.   I will definitely be doing more research and trying to make this look epic!

My rifle is slowly coming together nicely!

Some small progress, it’s starting to look like a blaster now.

Ok I'm about ready to start printing the armor and helmet here is what I have so far.
Are the GA armor good enough files or should I just get the BigFredCustom files?

Helmet- BigFredCustoms

 

Armor- Galactic Armory

 

Belt Boxes and Cod- BigFredCustoms

 

Jetpack- MillenniumMaker

 

Shins-  MillenniumMaker

 

Officers Blaster- BigFredCustoms

Rifle- MillenniumMaker

Info here for CRL model

"we are rushing to get all the parts on Esty with CRL release. You can find the rifle and shin already. For now, what I’ll do is place all modified parts required (the ones I used ) and designed for 501st approval. These will be compatible with Big Fred’s basic armor. None of the current armor vendor can be approved  without a lot of modifications and Big Fred was the closest I could find to start from.

we will have the full armor package available sometime soon."

[Pyro[TK]]

I will be waiting to get the correct files but in the meantime I would like to confirm what armor pieces are red on the Officer version.

 

from what I can see it’s the ears on the helmet, the gauntlets, the hand plates, the knees and shins. Is this correct? I also need to figure out the correct paint shade of red for those parts. 

[gmrhodes13[Staff]]

Appears so

 

 

 

 

 

There has not been a conversation as yet to work out if this will be a version from the current CRL or a new CRL on it's own.
