Whiskey Posted April 3, 2019 Author Share Posted April 3, 2019 Just did the unthinkable Airbrushed the soles of the boots to make the strips match in color The lighting makes it look dark here (bad lighting), but it matches the actual color. The wrinkles of the cap goes away when filled 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Really great work there, man. Seriously. Those are some of the best looking boots I've seen in a long time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Posted April 3, 2019 Author Share Posted April 3, 2019 Thanks chopper! Still need to weather once the holster arrives. I need it to be consistent with the weathering from RS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 Anyone have clear images of the mandarin collar? Looking for just screenshots, production/behind the scenes photos, costume tours, etc. Already saw the motm scout, and that does not have one.

Whiskey Posted May 4, 2019 Author Share Posted May 4, 2019 The RS holster will fit the dvh blaster nicely The hyperfirm is too large 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatfoodRob Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Did you not get an RS blaster ? They are the perfect screen accurate size . The singlepoint red dot sight HAS to be exact size , the reason the red dot sight has The top crosshairs adjuster cap un screwed becomes obvious if you try a correct size blaster ..... it won't sit in straight with the cap screwed on !!!!! Lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. Unfortunately, I did not. Was hoping it was going to be available again at a later date. Lol it was 5:30am when I saw the scouts go online and was a bit groggy 🥴 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Posted May 5, 2019 Author Share Posted May 5, 2019 Finished a successful troop this morning Back down to it I installed the holster and just finished the weathering the boots Have my vest from Chef ready Cheesewhoppy bund needs to be slightly weathered and I’m finally ready for a complete suit up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Posted May 7, 2019 Author Share Posted May 7, 2019 Was really hesitant on doing this, but felt it was necessary. Each part is individually stamped and was worried I could’ve ruined one The thermal detonator needed to have that slight curve to contour ones back Turned out well Just one thing left to do and I’m done 😉 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Did you need to heat bend the det tube? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Options: 1) Going to hit it with my heat gun in the center 2) cut and trim and glue with an angle 3) replace the tube entirely with wrapped wire I have black zip ties, just not the correct ones. I need to pick that up today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatfoodRob Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Non of the uk scouts have felt the need to bend the det tube , its quite bent already . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Posted May 8, 2019 Author Share Posted May 8, 2019 Now that I think about it, what I meant was...when you cut the curve, the tube should be bent back more or it will interfere with the belt and will be exposed more. By bending the tube back, it can seem more flushed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Posted May 11, 2019 Author Share Posted May 11, 2019 First suit up Taking a pic by myself with my phone proved to be harder than I thought. Will need to do a few adjustments like pull up the cod and pull up the belt boxes and buckle and pull up the boots, etc On the plus side, it’s graininess makes it look like an actual old production photo 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
