Dart Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Those are really crisp pulls. That's good to see because after doing my Republic Commando this looks like it'd be a piece of cake! Please keep us updated as I'm really keen on seeing how your build progresses. Also, I also hate you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyber Scout Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 Hay folks not had alot of time today, but got round to cutting out the back and cap two halfs of the main helmet and sanded, hopefully i'll get the inside parts glued in and the filler done tomorrow you can see what an awesome pull this is even with 3 mm A.B.S.

Cyber Scout Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 Hay ho, just thought i'd put a few progress pics on This is a nice lid to work on and i'am enjoying the build, i'am very impressed with the 80's design, me being an engineer idid not think the film design looked that strong but believe me you can see why the originals have lasted this long lol I've made all the strutts inside the lid exact to the move use ones.(i have the mesurements if anyone needs them) i did have a bit of ABS weld leak ARRRHH but i am going to paint the inside white anyway i've cut down the visor and shaped both sides to fit using the original mesurements Before i start putting the parts in to possition i've sanded the nose down to give it the nice crisp line like the movie scouts This is all the parts taped ready to do all the tweeks and sanding useing film reff shots so i'am happy before a commet to glueing heres just a comparason shot with my beloved K.S.

Dart Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 That's looking REALLY good! You're making it look super easy to put together and that makes my wallet nervous... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonewolf Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Great work so far, nice comparison shot. As with everything, this kit should go together well if everything is measured well and you don't rush. Kits will hopefully be made available shortly.
