Cheers bruv, i had molded it to my sons back lol Then Remo came up and gave it a fare bit of a difference. Marked where i needed to trim too, just needs primer n paint now. The gaunts were larger Jango shins, which Chris and i sized for cutting and shaping. The bottom clam is pvc pipe which i will attach when the greebs are done, just to give me some working room.

So...leaving the alpha plates for another kit. So...Made up and shaped some 6mm sintra to suit Remo's ab-plate and vest. More soon.




Still to add a diamond and thats the plates done, then paint  :D With the obvious placement stuff to get sorted without fingers.

Those are some sexy plates.  I love seeing when folks take time to round and smooth the edges and corners of their armor.  Makes it look way more realistic.

Cheers, not just a plate. His vest, girth, pouches and kama. I will be blending the plates to the ab, but in different shades of grey and blue plus gold sigs. Fingers crossed it works out.

Ah, excellent. Only saw the photo of the plate, didn't realize there were more elements being shared.

Can't wait to see how this build turns out.

Aye mate, most of the Vok'chi have one or two of his plates etc. He will always be troopin with us wherever we go.

Weeks before he died i changed my name as he said i was Kyp in his story, i also asked about copying some of his sigs. But he said no, git your own lol so i will design some to fit the look, the plates i add will probably be a bit darker than his when im done.

Gonni be a hard act to follow mate, but when i was doin my plates today i could nearly hear his critiqe and remembered everything he showed me. He helped me shape the backplate so i need to try something special for that.

Im out of my comfort zone doing this type of template work as ive only ever did jaig eyes before. But if it doesnt come out right its gettin sanded back and started again, determined to get this right.
