The set looks amazing and I hope mine will look good as yours.

Hey you know the backpack for Ellie from Natchan? For the life of me, I can't figure out how to put in the straps. He told me there's holes in the back where the straps goes and I don't see it. Hoping you could be more helpful with that? Thanks

 

[Maisto]

I don't know about a Natchan Ellie backpack. The one I'm using is from Kai. Kai's backpack needed to be drilled.

 

[amstel]

Yes! I got them two mixed up. What I have is a Kai backpack also. You said it needed to be drilled. Im guessing a dremel? How do you drill it all the way through? What type of drill bit? I'm sorry to be asking questions.

 

[Maisto]

You can use a Dremel grinding bit to make a small opening where you can insert and glue the the included nylon strap. The nylon strap needs to be glued to the shoulder strap. This was really easy to do, but be careful when drilling. Maybe later I can post a pic of the Joel backpack I just completed and painted for a Freak...

 

[amstel]

Sounds good! I'll keep an eye out for the pictures you post of the Joel backpack. On other hand maybe I could have you do the Ellie backpack for me?

 

[Maisto]

Here are some backpacks I put together and painted for a Freak on these boards. The backpacks are from Kai and need assembly. The shoulder straps need holes Dremeled and the nylon glued into place. You can see the locations in the pictures below. If you would like me to work on your Kai backpack I can, just send me a message.

The hole is approx 1/4" deep. Once hole is made poor quick set super glue into the hole and install nylon.

It is best if you glue the nylon to the shoulder straps before you glue the nylon into the hole.

Same for the Ellie backpack...

 

[amstel]

You did a great job with yours!

I get now what was needed to be done to add the straps to the backpack but I am not skilled enough to drill holes that small and I'm afraid I might make a mistake. I'll PM you about doing the Ellie backpack for me. Thanks!

Thought I would drop some thanks in here to Maisto for being such a huge part of my Leon S. Kennedy custom. He did the shoulder rig with knife/sheath, belt flashlight and the Silver Ghost pistol.

That is a great Leon Tony. I'm glad I could help.

I ran out of materials and have not had a chance to get more yet. I haven't decided if I'll make anymore at this time.

I used Vallejo paints. The colors that I used are Flat Earth, Saddle Brown, Flat Black, White, Iraqi Sand, chrome. I mixed colors together to get the colors I needed and used some layering techniques, dry brushing and color washing...

 

[Maisto]

Finally had some time to complete some of the many customs I've been needing to finish. Some Walking Dead here. Thanks for looking.

That Zombie Shane turned out great! The jacket is a random one that I added a fur collar to and weathered.

Looks awesome Chris!

Thanks Tony!
