Black Falcon : Pre-clearance pics
BikerScout007 replied to Black Falcon's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout WIP
Just to add to the above, it looks good for basic. Only the boot sole color might hold you up. The codpiece is a bit narrow for my taste and your vest sleeves might be a bit puffy but overall well done! -
SC is what I have. They are great! Welcome!

As long as the outside of the helmet looks correct it really doesn't matter how you arrange the interior

Thank you for showing off my lid, Cheyenne! Yes it seems 3M has changed their speedglas kit to black bolts with convex tops. You can do exactly what Cheyenne said and it will be all good. Or you can spend some extra $$$ and get this replica kit: http://forum.bikersc...showtopic=10270

TB 73187 Requesting Lancer Status (APPROVED)
BikerScout007 replied to Tristancraig's topic in Lancer Deployment Request
Hey buddy! You've done a great job with this app. And you've fixed most everything without us prodding you on, which is great. Sometimes just sitting back and looking at the pics gives you a whole new perspective. What we'd like to see is your dropboxes come up a tad and make them nice and even. Also, if possible, see if you can bring your belt up to meet the bottom of your pouches better. -
How to people store/transport their armour?
BikerScout007 replied to Canterbury Tail's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout HQ
I bought a $12 bin from Target. Black and red, so Imperial colors! No wheels or anything. But the scout costume is very light since it's mostly soft goods, and I can pick it up over my head and get around obstacles while my compatriots get stuck on escalators with their rollers -
It's my pleasure to announce the latest addition to the BS.n staff: Cheyenne TB-26548 ("Forest Ranger") is coming on as a Webmaster to assist Jim in keeping the good ship BS.n running smoothly. and Daniel TB-91728 ("Nexous") is coming on as a Public Relations Officer, both to assist Jake AND to finally get the Pathfinders Card run going again on a consistent basis. So expect an announcement about that soon. Let's give these scouts a warm round of applause!

Good luck to you, Scout!

Any news on this? -
Looking for belt buckle info.
BikerScout007 replied to tk1234's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
Most folks do one continuous loop. Indeed, this is how it was done in the film. I did mine with the male end pointing down. This seemed the most logical -
KriptonTop and NewImage for a new build?

KriptonTop and NewImage for a new build?
BikerScout007 replied to Dao Jones's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout HQ
Hey Ken! Welcome to bs.n No on both of those! There are many better, more reliable and accurate choices out there. -
Out of the box, the KS is fully approvable. I know this from experience. But for Lancer, yes you need to change the decals, change the snout, remove the mesh, put black on the inside behind the ears and change the bolt covers.

I'd hold off until you've actually trooped in the helmet. You may find you don't need the fans. They knew what they were doing when they designed this lid for ROTJ. You get really good airflow due to the earholes and the raised portion that goes around the back. Not to mention that if you REALLY need a breath of air you need only lift up the faceplate!

Welcome to bs.n!

Honestly, that sounds about right. I got mine about 2 months after ordering.

Which helmet would be best for my build?
BikerScout007 replied to MotorCityFool's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
As far as I know, an eFX Scout lid hasn't seen the light of day yet. Last time I talked to Gino they were still nailing down the prototype. I have the RS lid and it is not small. And yes, it's a long wait -
Shooting for Lancer, a few questions
BikerScout007 replied to Carpeteria's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout HQ
Yes, it's 1.5 for the straps. Did you try a hot knife on the boots? -

BikerScout007 replied to MotorCityFool's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
Altmann's would be fine for you. As would KS or SC -
You shouldn't need to do this. The buckles don't need to be functional. In the film, the strap passed behind the buckle so it looked like it was functional when it actually wasn't. The webbing was just one long loop that was attached to the belt in the back.

Hope this helps give you some ideas about the bund and pouches:
-
The KS bells are bigger, but they have an odd shape, I would not recommend them. The SC bells are a bit too long, but I think the issue you are having is that they are cupped. What I did was heat them up and then flatten them a bit. That helped a lot.

Yes to all that and remember.... this is fantasy space opera, not the real military!

Do you have a front-facing photo with your bucket on? And if not, can you take one and then make sure to turn your bicep armor forward? thanks! -
Rubies Collector Helmet

The photo looks like a screen cap from the movie!
