A new Biker Scout in the future

[Tarragon]

Just placed an order with SC for the armour + helmet.

It's not for me, but for my daughter. It will be her first 501st Legion costume since turning 18 in March.

Time to get her on the front lines rather than as a wrangler / photographer

Great news, hope she likes it

[BikerScout007]

That is solid parenting!

[Tarragon]

I have a few other pieces to source, but it will make a change from building clones, FOTK & ST

[BikerScout007]

Make sure you hit the trade forum. All kinds of goodies to be found there

[Tarragon]

Anyone have recommendations for jumpsuits?

I'm looking to build this for Level 2 approval.

PHIL!!!!

 

Welcome

 

If you change your mind the 2 piece under suit would be very comfortable for her. Easy to make.

Hiya Phil. Good choice for a costume for her. After going through Clone trooper, sandtrooper etc. I never looked back . Comfort is just bliss.

What is this 2 piece you are talking about Kelly?

Ok, I haven't posted any updates on this build. So here are some photos of the current build status.

I'm attempting to build it to Lancer level.

A couple of things that I need to update to meet Lancer levels are:

• TD end caps (concave)
  
• TD hose colour, may need to be darker
  
• Knee caps, awaiting 15mm (5/8") black elastic
  
• Bucket, seam on dome requires filling (optional).
  
• Bucket, chin strap (optional)
  

[Tarragon]

Things remaining to complete:

• Bucket - visor installation, snout greeblie, decals, chin strap
  
• Attach shoulder bells to Chest/back with cable ties
  
• Forearm armour - attach elastic
  
• Belt - attach velcro to webbing
  
• Hip Boxes - attach rear webbing to belt
  
• TD - black belt clips
  
• Attach pouches to cummerbund
  
• Attach diaper to cummerbund or flak vest
  

[Tarragon]

Oh yeah, and weathering needs to be done

[Tarragon]

New end caps ordered from SC, and 15mm black elastic ordered off eBay.

[Digger]

It's all looking very good so far!

 

Did you use the "visor glass" that comes with it? i hear it's really difficult to see through the SC visor.

 

I'm wondering how you attached (on the inside) the straps going down the front of the belt towards the hip boxes. I have seen several ways and still not sure how to attach those beltstraps

[Tarragon]

Yes, I used the SC green visor.

I wonder if the person who said it was difficult to see through the visor had removed the protective film from both sides prior to looking through it 😂

 

I’ll take some photos of how I attached the hip Box strapping. I just glued them in place.

Here are some photos from last weekend. I have shortened some of the elastic lengths. I still need to shorten the height of the shoulder bells.

 

New decals have arrived for the tank.

Awaiting new end caps & 15mm elastic to arrive, then we’ll be submitting photos for approval.
