Nice to see everything finally arrived safely :rock

awesome job pete, the paint is quite superb, i was exceptionally impressed with the head sculpt work.

 

[Dylan]

Can't wait to see you put yours all together.

 

[Peteskywalker]

Thanks man :hi5: I think Matt deserves a lot of credit for it also.
It would not be the high quality it is without his scrupulous attention to detail in the sculpt, paint and tailoring.

Plus the fact he has organised and posted everything (my least favourite part) :lol

oh i messaged him and thanked him personally. he is without a doubt the man!!! heres a tip, im assembling him now and had to make a ridiculously long belt to go around the vest. i vastly underestimated how long it had to be and luckily i had extra harnesses hanging around. make sure you have at least an 8" long belt, i made a 10" and am trimming it back when i have a good fit. the vest SSSSUUUUUCCCCCKKKSSSS to put on!!! i had to put the arms completely backwards and squeeze them in while tacoing the vest while holding the figure against my chest to pull it on! it fits the body exactly, i had to start from the neck down to get the velcro just right. the head will have to be filled somehow to sit tightly on the peg. same with the boots. i have to go out to the craft store to find bands for the pads and some kind of tack for the boots and head. oh yeah, invest in some very fine, small tweezers, getting the belt through the vest is impossible without one.

What body are you using?

Here's the hands I just painted. I have another set if someone needs them. I can paint them for you too.

 

[Dylan]

I picked those up too but I can't find a paint that will stick to it.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

I'll show you the paint I got when I get back from the craft store.

Heres the stuff you use for the knee pads and elbow pads to make them stay on.

Good progress on your custom, Jason.

And that reminds me, I need to get back to finishing mine.

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

thanks! mine will be done within the hour i think. fully complete!

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Getting these elastics to stay was HORRIBLE! They're trained in their directions and kept trying to move. I got em done though.

heads up, layers of glue, they will pull off on you otherwise.
