DarthShlomo Posted May 14, 2015 Author Posted May 14, 2015 Finished my diaper, er, I mean cummerbund. That's enough for this evening. I'm tired!
DarthShlomo Posted June 25, 2015 Author Posted June 25, 2015 Had to take a break, but that doesn't mean I haven't been trying to get things done. 1
CFLStarWarsDad Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 I'm very impressed. If you have the ability to snap a pic of the materials you used, i.e. type and manufacturer, those of us who may be following in your footsteps will have an easier go of it. Well done young man! Nicholas
DarthShlomo Posted June 26, 2015 Author Posted June 26, 2015 I got the helmet second hand from a fellow squad member and was told it is a SC bucket. I had intended to use magnets to keep the lid closed, but due to the helmet and visor not lining up just right and no luck with using heat, I switched to small velcro tabs that keep everything in place nicely when closed. I have an accurate set of mounting hardware that came with it. That will be installed this evening. The lense and decal set are from Trooperbay. And the snout is from DV here on the boards. His really are top notch and I got one from his new mold. So crisp. More pics this weekend. Thanks for the comments. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
DarthShlomo Posted June 27, 2015 Author Posted June 27, 2015 I think my helmet is finally passable. It was kind of wonky, but it looks great from 3 feet away! 1
CFLStarWarsDad Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Heres a question -- is the uniform pouches still considered " correct" if they are empty, or are we expected to display them as full, and does the content ever get inspected as well? Nicholas 1
DarthShlomo Posted June 30, 2015 Author Posted June 30, 2015 I have seen both, with pouches flaccid (heh, flaccid) and with items inside them to give them shape. I have also seen them with such a crisp shape that the corners may cause damage to the unaware passerby! Lol And to my knowledge, there is no inspection of the contents of the pouches. Although, that being said, convention security may ask to see inside if they reasonably believe it could conceal a contraband item. Many scouts use a hollow former to give them shape and keep them usable ad pouches for keys and wallet and whatnot. Also, the pouch is a common place to the speaker for a voice amp.
