Thank you for the assurance! Cookie loves to sit on the cummerband everytime I lay it down on the ground....[emoji28] Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

Got to weathering my cummerband, pouches and codpiece today....As advised in some build threads, I soaked the soft parts in a tub of hot water with 4 sachets of Earl Grey tea for less than a minute and sun dried it...Once dried, I went over the stitch lines with Tamiya Weathering Master brown to highlight them....Also went over the entire cummerband, pouches and codpiece with a wide brush....So I put everything on to see how they look together...In photos, the weathering on the soft parts look a bit darker than the armour pieces....But in person, they don't look that far off...I'm guessing the sheen on the armour reflects the light and 'toned' down the weathering while the matt soft parts shows the weathering as it is.....I'm not too sure, so hope to get some views if this slight variation (especially in photos) is acceptable for a Remnant Scout look? Of course there are ways to remedy this but I hope I dont have to resort to them.....I guess if looking at it in real world terms, different materials gets weathered differently...soft parts gets dirty easier while smoother armour parts less so (I'm just making up excuses [emoji28])....Hope to hear your views on this....Getting a bit anxious...[emoji28] Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

Thank you!...That's re-assuring! [emoji120] Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

My Steve Altman's helmet came a few days back and I have just completed weathering it...Before I weathered it with shades of brown, I gave it a coat of Krylon Satin clear coat....Tried to be as consistent as I can with the armour weathering....So before I give it another coat of Krylon Satin clear coat to seal the weathering and give it the finishing sheen, would like to get comments from experts here...[emoji120] Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

Still waiting on some items so decided to spend some time to weather up my EC-17 blaster to fit the Remnant look better....Not too heavy but visible enough to see some scuffing', paint chips and desert dirt stuck here and there..... Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

Thank you so much! [emoji120] Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

Yes, I used Vallejo and FolkArt acrylics as well as Tamiya Weathering Master for the weathering....I like to come up with new ways for strapping, taking into consideration for ease of wearing and storage/transportation... Thank you for the comments! [emoji120] Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk
