Maxall Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I'm not going to lie. Between the Biker Scouts in Mandalorian and Tales from the 501st: Checkpoint, I've really enjoyed what I call the "Knucklehead" Biker Scouts. Got my armor parts in from SC today. Planning on working on assembling it and the helmet this weekend. Soft parts and boots were ordered from Imperial Boots. They should be here in another few weeks. Then it's time to weather the parts. I've got a plan to tackle that 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxall Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 First coat of weathering is done. Going to build up where the paint has collected with a couple of more colors. The chest hasn't been painted yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxall Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 How does this look for "heavy desert weathering"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 I'd say it looks pretty good so far. You've got the right tone down, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakari, There's a tailor in town that I use for all of my soft parts work. She does some amazing work. I just wrapped the it around my waist and we just played with the tightness and what not until it kinda fit right. She marked the locations of the velcro and then sewed it in place. My problem was having the bottom a little relaxed so that I could sit in it. Keeping the top tight so that it didn't gap too much. Just a lot of trial and error. Nothing too fancy.
