Force Crush

Thanks!

Well, I got approved yesterday. I'm a happy man ready to serve the Spec Ops.

Update: Sew some canvas strips to cover the gap between the breast plate and back plate. https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/28vc57 https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/xX15LQ

That's an excellent job you've done! Has hecho excelente trabajo! Te felicito!

Wampawear sells a nice flightsuit for a great price. Check it out.

Progress of yesterday. Worked on the elastic to unite the breast plate and back plate. https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/vd315u https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/kBZznY https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/899642 https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/U3sQxR

Helmet is almost done. There are some little details to cover but I think it's coming along fine. Foam was installed inside with no fans installed yet. I hope to install them layer. https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/49Mn4A https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/Vn0V05 https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/6D5r44 https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/PSj7Qg https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/49Mn4A https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/2VS2A8

After taking a long break I went to do some work on my costume. Here is the belt 100% completed. https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/8Q7gmD https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/27P189 https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/2m6a0R

Must...regain...control... Thanks guys!

If you're still looking for the flightsuit, Wampawear sells some nice quality ones. Check out their page.

Well, after a 5 month break I started on the armor again. The belt is almost done. https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/TK14dm https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/N69DvK https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/73SY36

Thanks! I'll look into it!

Any suggestions on how to post some pictures on the forum without the link showing?

¡Bienvenido amigo! Saludos desde Puerto Rico! Welcome and hi from Puerto Rico!

Ok, back again after another long time. I've secured some portions of the helmet but I'm having trouble trying to align properly the aides of the helmet. Please help! https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/vJKthB https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/x0k709 https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/y5Dp1U https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/mPf2F8

Someone told me about the nail polish trick! I'm going to buy some to paint the rivers.

Where did you buy the parts to do the 000?

I can't see the image. Is that the black C3PO?

Finally an update! The rivets on my backplate are secured. Thermal detonator finished and working on the helmet is being done. However, I'm having a bit of difficulty on it. I hope I'm doing a nice job. https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/mjdd41 https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/44sjc6 https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/66q48i https://www.flickr.com/gp/153265232@N04/Nn0151

Are those elastics ok?

Ok, update time. Finally I decided to put some velcro to the bicep and forearm armor. I hope it looks ok.

I'll go with the decals I have. Ordering the Shadow Scout decals means that I'll have to spend more money. I'll stick with what I have. Thanks for your help!

Thermal detonator greeblies glued and painted. Visor bolts painted. Thermal detonator painted and one cap left to glue.
