Mark has this down and his work is pretty impressive. The zombie biker thread is a really cool idea and the tea idea was really cool.

Thanks Luis, I needed that!

Painting the Biker Scout helmet nose

Great tutorial John, very nice! Good question above from Alex. I'm also curious about how you mask off the rounded section. -
Very nice!

I got a note from KS over the weekend and my helmet/armor kit should ship this Friday. It should have expedited shipping but will take at least a week since I am in Texas (coming from Canada), eh?! I'll update this topic with pics, etc and based on my conversations with KS expect this to be a good run and set.

Hey...I checked out your photo album, not nice. Glad they worked it out with you.
-
Haha, I was wondering if anyone would knock that off! IDK, guess I have collected a lot of them over the years. They are great for yard work!

A few more pics:

I just finished this up and wanted to share the pics and build. It's basically a hollow plastic DLT-19 body (cushman), about 3 1/2 feet of 1" PVC, filled w/insulation foam, glued, filled, added toy scope from a kids gun, sanded painted, and weathered. NOT for normal canon usage. It was a fun project.

I think the costume makes it easier to realize the guns are fake. Of course a guy walking down the street in jeans and a t-shirt, carrying a BFG like this would get some attention!
-
Supposed to have an orange tip. I think this is a law is some states. I'm in Texas so...
-
Good to hear! We'll all be suited up in no time!
-
I sent you a PM link to Lewis's site and his contact info. You may already have it. They are like $375, built-painted-weathered, and shipped.
-
Hang in there man, we'll get through it.
-
Still holding my breath...
-
Good luck on your build. I think I'm up to week 11 now.

MY LW build explaination video. lol

Thanks for taking the time to do this video. It was really informative and makes all this seem a lot less daunting. -
I've been working on a version of this for my own non-canon usage.
-
I wrote KS again (should have shipped last week), still waiting... I did see some awesome shots of 'asiandood's' new KS kit. He should be posting pics soon, it looks great.
-
Hehehe...it would be funny to see an ewok arm or leg too, just for those munchy attacks.
-
That's pretty cool man. I bet it looks totally rad in person! You need some arm damage, like from falling or something. Maybe even some leg damage too.
-
I guess the name of the game is patience. I'm still waiting for the word of my armor shipping. As of this date, still nothing. I'm hoping to get a message this week stating that it's on the way. Everything else is ready to rock...stand by! In other news, my flak vest is almost complete. Just making a few tweaks to the sleeves before posting pics. Also, I've almost finished with a new Cushman DLT19. I added the primer this weekend and she will be curing for the next few days. I hope to get the flat black on it this weekend. I'll update once I know more from KS...
