First timer Scout build - decal location help

[Cptjamesflint]

Hello all,

 

It's a dream come true to finally be on my way to joining the ranks! With the exceptional help of Cheesewhoopy I'm over halfway done with my build. Picked up SC armor, and currently I'm only lacking the gloves from Wampawear - should be arriving this week, and currently have an order in with Cheesewhoopy for the cummerbund and boots.

 

Finished sewing everything yesterday, used some E6000 to epoxy the greeblies, and basically just want to be sure I place the decals in the proper place. Anyone trooping in SC that could provide pics of your decal placement would be greatly appreciated for your help! I've done some digging but have only found helmet help.

 

Thanks very much, in advance everyone!!

Hi Cam! I’m trooping the SC as well and I really like it. You can find what you need with regards to where to apply them via the CRL on the Legion site. In particular take a look at the chest and back armor pictures. Those will help you with decal placement.

Hey Retrofire - thanks a ton for that! I should have checked the official 501st site before asking, thanks for pointing me in the right direction!!

 

Any tips on the SC helmet bolts to keep them tight? After a few flip ups of the face, it doesn't really stay up for me, but I'm afraid I might damage it if I overtighten it. Thoughts?

 

Thanks again!

heya,

 

i used this info(link below) for placement of my decals on my don posts and my rs prop masters kits and they seem to work good and look pretty good in place even though the helmets are of different porportions.

 

see part 8 ... http://website.lineo...B-RubiesMod.pdf

 

on my shadow scout the 3m bolts i use twist off with raising the visor too ... i think a dab of e6000 on one side of the threads might do the trick to keep them secure.

 

good luck!
