Knucklehead Biker Scout

[Maxall]

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

Nice and welcome to the Pathfinders. Keep us updated as your build progresses.

Made some progress this weekend...

Next is to string the belt boxes, hot glue the visor and weather.

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.

How does this look for "heavy desert weathering"?

[Chopper]

I'd say it looks pretty good so far. You've got the right tone down, for sure.

Finally finished weathering my hard parts.

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.
