Death Recon Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Those colours look perfect Bselph, The only thing I can point out is your black strips should only be as thick as your belt. if I don't hurry up your gonna be finished (again) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bselphfsu282 Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 So the black strips just stop on the belt and not the cummerbund base? Hey, I'm sure ill have more to fix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bselphfsu282 Posted July 13, 2013 Author Share Posted July 13, 2013 Alright, take 2. New submission photos including the new cummerbund, greyed drop pouches, and mirror lens. Let me know what you guys think. http://s1066.photobucket.com/user/bselphfsu282/library/Kashyyyk%20Trooper%20Submission Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comm tech Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I have to admit, the mirrored green lens is really a much better look. Cumberbund looks good, just too new and clean Good luck with your submit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quingald finn Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 good luck mirrored lens is awesome indeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bselphfsu282 Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 Thanks for the heads up Matt! Got the film pulled off from the glue, cut a piece of clear lexon for the new lens, and put it on the right way. Worked great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Recon Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Not so lucky, I had glued the shiny side to my lens and then as I went to try and put it in my bucket the film came off the green side. Gonna have to get another piece of lens and a new green tint but it's passable at the moment (even up close) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bselphfsu282 Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 Allan, Lowes carries lexon and other plexi. I got a squard foot piece of lexon for like 2 bucks already cut. I just used my old lens, traced the pattern, and then I had to use my cutter bit on the Dremel to cut it out. The other plexi I got shattered and chipped when I tried to cut it, but the lexon worked perfect. Tim, I have extra Lexon and the extra film you can grab Saturday from my house.

bselphfsu282 Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 Hey guys, is the notch above the nose supposed to be painted black??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Recon Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Like the outside of it? No but the inner edge of it yes (just like the rest of the inside/backside of everything else) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bselphfsu282 Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 No on the outside. There is a little notch above the nose, which I have seen painted on some and not on others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 The little notch above the snout can be black. It's just a little slit, almost like a vent. Some people even take a Dremel and make a very small opening. Or just paint it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bselphfsu282 Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 Ok to leave as is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Recon Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I have mine dremmel'd out, so I thought you ment the inside of that hole... But yeah if you didn't cut it out (which isn't a requirement) then I'd just leave it as is buddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bselphfsu282 Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 And approval has come. #27! Couldn't have done with without you guys! Made a world of difference having Matt, who has all the knowledge, and Allen and Tim, who were running into the same issues as me with the same kit. Thanks again guys!

comm tech Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Great news Brent. Glad it all came together for you. Thanks a ton for your help at your AP yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Recon Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 That's wicked! Glad your approval finally came, I was starting to wonder! You guys are lucky you have other members so close, I checked my area and the closest to me is a couple hundred KM LoL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bselphfsu282 Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 Yeah it was a lot of fun to be able to hang with Tim and actually go over issues and help one another. His is coming Along quite nicely. It also helps for Tim to have someone who has gone through approval so he knows what our GML is looking for.
