So, I have someone who has asked me to build their TB for them complete with soft goods. They of course will provide all of the armor, and materials to do so. My question is what is a fair price for labor and time? Thoughts?

So has there been any talk of anyone building a battlefront TB. They look pretty cool, and looks like it could be way more comfortable. Thoughts??? Sent from my LM-V450 using Tapatalk

Thigh patches material question.

Also after you wear it for a while, wash it etc, it fades a little. Sent from my LM-V450 using Tapatalk -

Does anyone have a pattern for the inner thigh patches? I need to redo mine and looking for a decent pattern. Like maybe a PDF file? Sent from my LM-V450 using Tapatalk

Armor is approved!!! TB 22710 reporting for duty! Let's go hug some trees. Sent from my LM-V450 using Tapatalk

Thank you so much!! This is great and has inspired me to get one. Thank you!! Sent from my LM-V450 using Tapatalk

I'm seriously thinking about getting one for my scalp but what I would love to see is a YouTube tutorial on exactly how to pack it where everything fits. It would be awesome if you would do that! Hint Hint Sent from my LM-V450 using Tapatalk

Yes for sure suiting up by myself was sort of a challenge. I have a different Bond and codpiece that's made out of white canvas that actually fits better it's just a little heavier and not as comfortable as the one in the picture. I will work on shortening the sleeves of the flak vest. Sent from my LM-V450 using Tapatalk

Yeah I feel like I need to take them up. But may I ask everyone an honest question? When trooping, how many scouts really wear the flak vest? From my experience it seems like many scouts where the flak vest for approval pictures then never really wear them again in a regular Troop. Am I right or am I wrong?

Ok guys, I think I might be ready to submit for approval. I am already a legion member as TK but this I am more worried about. Anyway, my 10 yr old daughter took these pics so not the best quality. Any I welcome thoughts and suggestions. I know it's not perfect and FAR from Lancer but would like basic approval.....be gentle lol Sent from my LM-V450 using Tapatalk

is this the 35 inch smaller size tote? I have a big 50 gal Husky tote for my TK but would like to go smaller for my TB
-
Really? wow ok For some reason I thought they had hints of grass stain or bush whack here and there. I sooooo want to weather it up, but have seen how some people over do it on sandtroopers and am afraid of making a mistake that cant be undone. If I DO screw up and do a little too much, is there a way I can get the paint off?
-
man it hurts my heart just a little bit when I see those BIG spray marks hit that white armor!!!! That being said, this is probably the direction I will go. (only much lighter) I was thinking about something that had a little more green and browns in it too. Sort like it has brushed up against lots of trees, and foliage. Thoughts?

Ok guys and gals, My scout is pretty much done. just fine tuning some things before approval pics. My question is about weathering. I would like to weather my scout, however I do not want to over weather. I have a very clean TK so I do not feel I need a clean TB. Is there a link, thread, or just general tips on weathering? Materials used, tips on how to apply, where on the armor to apply? Also I know some who have air brushed, but after cannot get the armor wet due to it washing off. Im not sure I want to do this especially since I do not own airbrush eq. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Any tips on dying the existing straps off white or where one can find new off white straps? Or should I just stick with white pouches and weather? Sent from my LM-V450 using Tapatalk
