Does anyone have a close up photo of the bottom side of the holster from Walt's original kit? I'm having some severe difficulties trying to figure out what it should look like. My 'inserted' piece does not like up at all and looks very out of place compared to any other photo I find. Thanks!

I have looked at this one as well. Not much on trimming - just focused on weathering and the boots. Thanks, though.

I'm not having much luck with the WTF armor. Can't seem to find any build threads showing how people are trimming it. I'm seeing most other makers are either including predrawn lines or there are mold marks (especially for the tank) but Walt's has nothing of the sort. Just blindly have to trim. Anyone have any experience with his Scout kit on here?

Well that was just what I was looking for - thank you!!

Got the Lone Wolf helmet kit (thanks to Brodustrial Light & Magic). I've been looking everywhere for build pics and hints for this one, but keep coming up dry. If anyone has some info or links to share, I would greatly appreciate them! It looks to be a very accurate sculpt and quite sturdy too. Don't want to screw it up!

I'm at the point where I think I'm going to need guidance, so I may as well start a thread. So far, these are items I have aquired/ordered: ARMOR Walt's Trooper Factory BOOTS Homemade/Kingshow Base GLOVES WampaWear SUIT WampaWear CUMBERBUND/POUCHES Homemade (In Process) SHOULDER BAG Brodustrial Light & Magic BLASTER BlasterWorks I had ordered my helmet from Kropserkel, but have to send it back due to a production flaw. I'm currently looking into a LoneWolf one instead (big head) I'll start posting some photos when I figure out how.

The reason I'm aiming at Lancer from the start is that there are some things I don't want to rework. Mainly the soft parts. My plan is to build them accurately the first time. Other than that, it's mostly proper weathering, from what I can tell. I have to keep looking for a helmet vendor as KS is only offering me a refund at this point. I'm apparently an unsatisfied customer. Great first experience from a reputable vendor, I guess.

That just seems like a lot of work. And since the vendor only claims this doesn't "meet my expectations" my only option is to return the entire helmet. I am very disappointed with his response to his defective craftsmanship, especially since this bucket is the one I selected for my larger melon. Thanks for the advice.

I'm going for a Mando Lancer build and am awaiting my WTF kit. In the meantime, I ordered a KS helmet. I received it and it seems to have been a bad pull on the back piece. My only option given was to return the entire helm for a refund. As it's going to be dirtied up anyway, what's the consensus here that I could still get Lancer approval with this?

Oh I have Walt's on order for the Mando build. Just wanted a different helmet. I think I found where to find the parts needed for the helmet.

I just got my KS helmet today and wasn't aware it wouldn't meet Lancer approval. May I ask where you purchased the 3M bolts and greeblie? Thanks!
