Spudley7 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Hi this is a build I have just completed... and cleared with 501st UKG... My armourer advised me to share it here to aid other builders ... please delete and message me if this break any rules.... the kit I used was a 850 works v2... the quality of the pulls were shockingly poor and over pulled with very thin abs walls... I can only comment on the kit I received not the new 850 v3... Helmet eBay unknown builder... 2nd tear drop and new curved lens added... 850 v2 kit .... Plastic surgery required... Heavily altered on details collar rebuild, vents and edges sharpen up, forearms rebuild, ab plate rebuild, all straps/buckles replaced, belt boxes replaced, hand plates replaced, TD and Pringle scratch build used 850 Pringle detail, rear box details rebuilt, hip skirt plates scratch built.. was not a fun build but... wanted to stick at it... and over come the bugs this kit is known for ... as there is no prefect kit at the moment.

TK8271 Rogue Trooper Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Great work Paul You now need to go to The Vanguard area and post up the required info. Before you do that though you need to add the 2 rectangle recess behind each shoulder strap box At first glance everything else looks great Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr paul Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Added details Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Tremendous amount of work making that 850 kit presentable well done. May I advise you that your shoulder straps are facing backwards. The slanted edge to the teeth of the straps should be facing forwards. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
