Darth Chridan Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Good lord... ...after a lot of month I've finally finished the upgrade of my biker scout. The previous parts was from D'Chef. The parts where I've changed is: *the Chest and Back plate/tank *the knees parts *the belt What should I say...I'm now satisfied with the result. This is the beginning of the journey--->> ...and here the side by side view of the new chest to the old one from D'Chef...btw I'll close the triangular cut again.--->> Here are a few WIP- pics from the build--->> ...since the parts had different colour shades i've painted the whole armour--->> ...and here the pics from the assembling--->> Note: The T-Bits have been replaced by more accurate parts in the meantime--->> ...that's it with the assembling. This time I didn't fix the pockets behind the chest armor with velcro, now sewed them to the cummerbund like the original....and I have to say, it holds great and because of the tension on the body nothing slips down--->> ...1st testfit without gloves and boots--->> ...some fiddling--->> I don't have to tell you anything about it (height, distance, width, positioning, etc.) until it has worked out reasonably well.... 🙄 --->> Now to the "greatest part" of this job... the Weathering 😁 --->> ......and once again forgotten to put on gloves 🙄 🤨 --->> Well, I've the costume build up on a doll and made some pics with the doll--->> ...the accurate T-Bits--->> Holster--->> Thermaldetonator--->> ...complete rear view--->> Well then...soon he will have his "maiden voyage" at the next event...I'm really looking forward 😁 Cheers...... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The belt is from CfO and the chest, back and knees are from a good buddy, he still had a few parts left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
