im excited to see this when its 100%, so far its a stellar kit, you have done very nice work, stay on this path, best advice i can give you is don't rush it and don't over complicate it, which so far you have not. great job!

Thanks so much for the kind words! Yeah I'm trying not to rush things for sure. I did that with the first style of armor and didnt like it. I'm really enjoying how this kit is coming along. Thanks again


Just realized you are wearing your new flight suit you previously mentioned in our clan chat. I was skeptical at first for it being spandex material but I really dig it. It will easily adjust to your body size if you lose/gain any weight over time and you don't need to go through all the alterations many other flight suits require for OM status. Great choice overall! I know your plan is to eventual go for brigades, what is your plan for a cod down the road? Your loin cloth currently hides the "problems" we disused in the chat. I would still be concerned that some one would get too hands on... though, I hear this has happened before. Also kids are this height as well so always something to think about. May the schwartz be with you!   ;D

Yeah and its comfy too! As far as the "problems" I'll most likely just wear the boxer style jock inward telling you about.  This way even if any hands on happens it will be okay :-)
May the Schwartz be with you! Lol thanks for the laugh


Will have an update soon everyone! Been playing with paints and sanding stuff so hopefully within the next week or so :-)

Great advances.
If you accept suggestions, I would add some kind of side armor to protect your flanks and, mainly for this, get the closure straps hidden.
Great work with the neckseal  :like: :like: :like:

That's a good suggestion.  I've briefly thought about it actually :)
I have seen some good looking armor with that.  I'll have to think on it for sure. And thanks, I think it turned out pretty good.

Greetings Vode!

Just a small update today. Added some battle damage to my armor pieces and thought I'd share :-)














I'll be moving on to painting this week if I get a chance :-)
Thanks for looking!

Greetings Vode!

So small update!
Put a few coats of primer on my armor pieces.
Didn't make it to paint yet though. Perhaps this weekend :-)



Thanks for checking it out!

Everything looks awesome :D. The only thing I think it could use is a little more in the way of blaster damage; you're a heavily armored tank, chances are they'd get in a shot or two before you closed to slashing range ^_^

Thanks so much!  And yeah I thought about that, but I didn't want to go super heavy on the damage for this kit.  And I hide really well ;-)

UPDATE!

Greetings vod,

Small update this week :-)

So I put down the first coat of paint and masked everything off for the other color. :-)
I think its going to turn out awesome.  (I hope lol)









I also worked on my bes'bev but I heard I wont be able to use it for my kit due to it being metal. Its okay though, ill make one out of pvc or something.

Thats all for this week :-) thanks for checking it out

Love this paint progress! I will say, that first photo looks like you put a trash bag over a small child and then the helmet to paint. Took me a double-take to realize what was up  :laugh:

Greetings vode!

Sorry its been so long since I've done an update. I've been busy packing and getting ready to move. Also have been a little lazy lol.

I've painted my brown coat on everything and taken off the tape. I think everything looks pretty good. Hope you all enjoy!










So this is where I'm at now. Like I said, I've been busy and lazy lol. Still have to dirty everything up and weather everything. I'm getting closer for sure!
I'm honestly not sure if I'll be posting again for a while. I'll be moving at the end of October and I'm not sure I want to keep breaking out my craft stuff since im getting close to having everything packed up.
But once I'm moved I should be good to keep going on my kit :-)

Thanks for viewing!

Wow! Great work on this WIP. I sure can appreciate the updates spread over... like 2 years? Really cool to see you kept at it. I've been working on a Legacy Kit since Feb'20 and felt I was taking too long... glad to know other people don't finish things in a month, haha!

Good luck with the move. I look forward to seeing this completed :)

Thanks so very much for the kind words! Yeah I learned that I shouldn't rush things for sure because then I wouldn't be happy with it. Also life happens to only give me so much time to work on stuff. :-)
I went and checked out your thread and I think everything is looking great!

The move went well and am slowly getting everything organized. Its going to take a bit for me to get the crafting area available to keep working on my kit. Probably after the holidays to be honest.

So stay tuned everyone! Come January I should have some updates!

Thanks for viewing!

Great progress on the painting. I strongly agree, you don't want to rush. Make sure you're making something you're going to be happy with. Looking good so far vod  :like:

Greetings Vode!
I am still here, just been busy with life. I'm currently trying to get my craft space cleaned up so I can resume work on my build. Just wanted to update :-)
