Hey Raoul

Looking good!  I just think you went a little too heavy on the knees and boots and if there was a way you could dial it back a little bit I think it would improve the overall look

But nice work all in all!

Aye cheers.

Thought id post this up on here as well as on the UGK.

As you said 007 had been told to tone down the weathering.

After a lot of different chemicals to try and remove the paint without sanding it off all together i think i managed to tone it down a bit.
The Boots where a nightmare as the last thing i wanted to do was bleech the leather.
So here's what ive got:

I had to remove the blaster shot on the shoulder as i couldnt tone it down without it looking terrible.

My wadding finally arrived so i cut the cod open and reinforced it. Here is a before and after shots of how i could scrunch the cod up in my hand as the wadding it came with was so thin.

I did unfortunetly have some kitting up issue that time around. My cumba is not sitting high enough and isnt square on with my body. Also i think i stuck the eleastic going under my legs too high up on the cumba at the back giving that annoying scrunch back.

If you loosen up the cod strap and pull the cod up a bit in front it should help alleviate those “crunchies” a fair bit. Apart from that you’re looking good. Best of luck with the UKG GMLs mate!

The exact tip I gave him on the Nordic Garrison forum since he is moving to Norway!

Like Retrofire said, you look good to go, I hope to troop with you sometime!

I cant help but notice all the rum bottles in the background. I should've had that during my build, and maybe it would have helped me relax a bit. Congratulations on becoming a Pathfinder.

LOL. I can tell you right now Mark that there was more than a few times when working on my Scout drove me to drink. I’m sure I’m not alone .
