If and when I get mine im gonna drive down the beach and scuff em up in the sea lol

Thanks Joe. You're a star

Hey folks , im after a couple of pictures of the mr Pauls biceps if thats possible. I need them for the webbing slot and where the snap riser is . If anyone has the MP files and could post or send me a pic of that I would be hugely grateful.

hobart lens fitted.... cant see a thing outside to in but once its worn its sooooo clear

Looks great Paul!

20a kit has been dispatched. Hopefully get soon. Best order the paint

Just wanted to say a huge thanks to @Dart for offering to send one over if I was really struggling. Cheers man

As it happens its turned up today , not gonna even think of doing it today , Make sure ive got everything I need to get it sorted first time.

Cheers folks. That I knew it was more of a where the Velcro was in terms of the rear clamshell securing to the side of the shin but think I’ve sussed it. Thanks again lads. 👊🏻👍🏻

was looking at the files but was trying to see how the rear boot armour connects to the front. Imagines the files take care of this but would be handier to see on a real build if thats ok.

Turns out I’d also ordered somehow also ordered that correct Hobart lens from Amazon US and forgotten about it until I got an email saying it would be here on friday winner

Bloody hell that’s a fairly expensive one then Feek bad now moaning about a £10 holster now

Yeah. That flippin rabbit hole lol ive managed to fix it using a combination of superglue , activator, tiny scrap of abs and. Tshirt plus a large dollop of anxiety. Luckily when it cracked it left a good radius around the rivet so that’s rock solid Using the above I’ve fixed it all back together. Then added a tiny bit of model putty to hide the line. Thats been sanded down , painted gloss white and then a tiny spray of black weather to hide it and even shaking it around the the blaster it seems fine now That said I’ve ordered a spare holster from chef anyway as well as some spare lenses. So that was another drama mate lol

would that be doable given full set of measurements?

do they have any other nice blasters? not played the game but if its on gamepads lol

I forgot to say On the outside there was about the same 3mm Gap around the rivet so it seems not to have failed where you’d expect and more of a I might have compressed the holster when I was sat on the bed trying to pull the boot on. There’s a 20mm section inside the boot of abs and a washer to hold the weight off and it’s not that that’s failed. I’ve asked him for the cost of a new holster so will see what he comes back with but it seems secure and will check after the 25 cure

It’s gone around the rivet so until I hear back from chef I’ve used t shirt to back it and provide a mesh then glued each piece one by one and used activator. Then a tiny dab of modelling putty to fill it then will sand to show rivet and then paint and lacquer. Worth a try

Was just seeing it better way to get boots on for myself then not only has the pull tab come off the right boot but somehow the lower left corner of the holster has cracked off so now I need a new one of them seems this life ain’t meant for me. Everything just keeps getting worse. Dont wanna quit but it seems every time I get ahead something breaks again All I did was stand up and put the boot on 😭😭😭😭 Thqts said I have the small section that cracked off , I have superglue and activator , CA glue and the amber gorilla glue. I have putty to fill a crack and white gloss paint and black to redo the base plus lacquer plus weathering Is it possible?

I will do mate. I’ll fire my address anyway , although I’m UK , and it’s not gonna hurt to have a spare of the right shade in case. you’re a star my friend Thanks .

Oh well. Chuck that in the bin then Just have to hope chef can send that replacement or I’m cooked. This is turning into a nightmare since I was cleared Everything going wrong oh well cheers

Shade 3 lens arrived but was green so worried a bit. However cut a scrap test piece to check and even right up close with a piece barely held in and in daylight eyes can’t be seen so I’m gonna make a proper one and fit to the helmet tomorrow looks great even in direct sunlight so will remove this and shape the better shaped one tomorrow. Dodged a bullet

Heard back from chef who’s gonna also send me a section but he says he uses shade 5 so hopefully see a bit better this time lol. Was proper dark

Congrats !!

Looking good mate. Gutted about today
