Recommended Posts

I've been cataloguing my Scout (TB) build for 501st entry for the past few months and today, finally submitted my application shots. I'll be adding my photos and wip shortly to the thread but would like to begin it with my submission photos along with photos "just for fun" with my DLT-19. Please excuse the wampa wear tag on my glove, gotta photoshop that out!

 

Breakdown of items:

 

Armor: Studiocreations (SC)

Helmet: SC

Gloves: Wampawear

Body Suit: Redkap with mods

Flak Vest: T-shirt stitched up

Boots: Target workboots with marine vinyl

Weapons: HFX (Hyperfirm)

 

I will be providing details shortly as to how items were made and basic cost soon for those interested.

Looks good so far. The biggest 'issue' I see at the moment are the pants (a little too baggy) and the straps around the thigh patches which should be more tighter. Otherwise good job!

 

Cheers

Thanks, tucking in the pants into the boots more would actually "tighten" up the look of it more, we're going to sew elastic on the ends of the pants so that when I wear them, I pull it down as well instead of letting it bunch up at the top like that.

good catch! The webbing in the back for the drop boxes are actually mixed around and need a few fixes. They currently are just pinned in place. You can say I wanted to rush into getting it done and submitted then finalize it later since I plan to disassemble, weather and then reassemble.

Looking good! It's fun to troop with the DLT-19 - on short troops anyway. I added a scope to mine so that it approximated the sniper look from the games.

 

I wanted to point out that your boots seem to be a little tall. There should be an inch or two between the knee armor and the top of the boots, but in some pics (like the one in the post above) it seems the knees are actually overlapping your boot shaft. But it's only in some pics so maybe the knees slipped down. Adding the Lancer detail of a second elastic strap attached with rivets might help with that.

 

And this won't affect approval but you might want to round the corners of your bicep armor pieces and the last boxes at the ends of the belt. The sharp edges will cut/wear into your undersuit.

 

Good job overall!
