It's a WTF kit and those kits don't have them. But the screen shot I posted above also shows no indent.

best shot we have of the tank topper is here: So that indent next to the dial should be filled in. Also you are missing the round greeblie that goes inside that large hole on the left. It's the same round greeblie that's found on the TD. You can see it on the ROTJ Scout here: The ROTJ tanks were affixed to the back with an elastic strap for the film. This was not done for "The Mandalorian". They appeared to be glued together or at least, permanently connected in some manner. You may be able to rivet it all together using the rivet that goes through the tank topper. Just depends on your kit. E6000 always works!

Bienvenidos! That looks great! Thanks for sharing. @Jakeputt -- check this out.

Later on down in that thread they discuss getting the paints in Canada!

Some of this topic was addressed in this post: Hopefully the info is still current!

The color choices were decided on based on this shot where the armor is actually in bright sunlight, and not the shadowy lighting of the selection screen:

We decided to go with this one: https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:Kashyyyk_Officer

Nice! @MrPoopiemight have some stuff for you.

You are correct:

For the dropboxes it's actually cotton webbing. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/COTOWIN-Thick-Cotton-Webbing，6-Natural/dp/B08Q873CZW/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=1.5+inch+white+cotton+webbing&qid=1669779733&sprefix=1.5+inch+white+cotton+%2Caps%2C142&sr=8-6 For the closure in the back, it's 2 inch nylon or polypro

@MrPoopie also has an Altmann bucket so he's probably best positioned to help

@MrPoopie?

Happy to help. I'm going to get this over to Legion PR and try to get it on the 501st social media.

Looks good! I had a construction helmet liner and it gave me headaches, so I ended up removing it and going with helmet pads. Just a thought!

Nice! Mine didnt come with the oiler and I had to get it separate from eBay!

Having the exact shade is only a Level 2 requirement. For Level 1, any close enough match will do.

Hi there! Whether you print or build an ABS kit, the assembly part is largely the same. But one of our very best Shoretroopers has a thread on the subject:

The closest thing we have to a pattern is in this thread:

Not great. It's rubberized so you probably don't want to do much with it once you've sprayed it down

As far as I know, there are not other STLs out there. If you can play with them, do that. Your other option is to buy a kit

I usually spray the insides of prints with Plastidip just to smooth them out some. Might help!

I used quarter-inch neoprene. Plastezote is pricey since you have to order it from England.

An 850 Lancer build is a bit more challenging, but it IS possible. Check out this Lancer app while doing your research!

Attention! @Schraeder has just completed his 400th troop as a Pathfinder. He has been issued a Certificate of Achievement for this milestone and had an extra cog added to his Hall of Fame pic. Well done, Pathfinder!
