9506 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Alrighty, I picked up my MC armor at my local customs office, yesterday. I am not sure when I will find the time to start my build, but I am so excited that I had to open this thread now. The parts look amazing and I am very much looking forward to building this baby. I will keep you guys in the loop and post pictures as I work on it. 1 Quote
Griffin-X Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Congrats on the new armor and looking forward to seeing your build! Quote
9506 Posted September 12, 2013 Author Posted September 12, 2013 Finally, I will have some time to start the build. Here's a quick comparison between the as-is and to-be armor: The blaster also fits nicely into the new holster: Quote
TheRookie Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Sweet, Would you have to make a new vest due to the shoulder pieces being shorter? I understand the sleeves shouldn't be too long... Quote
9506 Posted September 13, 2013 Author Posted September 13, 2013 Would you have to make a new vest due to the shoulder pieces being shorter? I understand the sleeves shouldn't be too long... That's a question I have already asked myself. The vest wasn't too long, but I guess I'll have to figure that out once the parts are ready to wear. Quote
9506 Posted May 5, 2014 Author Posted May 5, 2014 Well, I had a lot of stuff to do last year but still finished my build. Today, I started weathering it and to be honest, I didn't cut corners while painting. I really like a dirty look and I do see that this build is quite dirty ... I am kindly asking for opinions: Is it TOO dirty? I just finished the weathering two hours ago, so I am still in the phase of looking at it and asking myself whether I like it or not. Quote
Skinner3D Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 I would like to see it on you. I really like the dirty look too, but was just told that my old armor was too heavily weathered Quote
9506 Posted May 6, 2014 Author Posted May 6, 2014 I'll take some pictures in the woods as soon as I have received my DC-15x. I'll post them here. Quote
9506 Posted May 21, 2014 Author Posted May 21, 2014 I reduced the weathering and took the Scout out into 'the woods' for a photoshoot. The result: Quote
Skinner3D Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I am impressed. The way you had it weathered before, i thought would never come out. Very nice Quote
