That's one mighty fine looking shadow scout. ??

The 3-d printed versions are much lighter, but would be far more fragile.

The resin DLT-19 is one heavy blaster. You couldn't keep aiming that for a long while. It would be maily held by your side or to your front due to the weight of all that resin. Saying that, it's still a lot lighter than the original MG34 which the blaster was based on. I've been lucky to hold one of these & that metal weapon is crazy heavy.

Heavy resin. The E-11 in resin is bad enough, but the DLT-19 is quite a workout. I tend to rest the top of the blaster nozzle on my toe while troping.

Just got great news. My shadow scout has been cleared. Many thanks to our GML & my shadowsister Andi for her help getting this build across the line. TX18170

Thanks @raider I've already adjusted the pouches to sit either side of the central ribs of the cumberbund. I'll work on fixing the cloth loop on the shoulders. I appreciate the helpful tips.

The build so far.

I'm nearly there. I've taken more submission photos & I'm waiting for an update. Hopefully I'll have news soon.

It was on top of the visor. So I cut about 1cm from the centre of the top of the visor & glued a strip of abs underneath using clamps to keep it more straight. I've now filled it & sanded it. I've a coat of black paint drying at the moment. Then it will be a coat of varnish & hopefully done.

It was on the top of the visor.

Thanks @IcyTrooper My forum upload quota has vanished, so I'll have to find a way to send links instead. I'll send photos when I have the tweaks done. The main tweak involves sanding down the helmet visor to remove a curve, so i'll need to wait for paint & top coat to dry. Sadly, it could be a while before it's all done & ready.

The clearance photos have been taken & sent in. I've been advised I need a few tweaks & should be good to go. Wish me luck.

I got the belt done this evening. Nearly there

Tonight, I did the forearms & shoulder bells. Next up will be the biceps & the belt completion.

Tonight, I got to rivet the top knee straps & installed the snaps on the bottom knee straps.

I got to install the silver lens last night. Will work again next week as I've the weekend off. Ive the belt & lots of strapping still to do.

The plate is now riveted onto the top of back hump.

The hump is now attached.

A bit more work done last night. Now to tackle the belt & the hump assembly.

The boots were bought already done. The dog bone is glued on, but stitched on both edges.

Did the blaster holster & riveted it onto the boot yesterday.

Thanks. Almost finished the bucket. Another few evening's work & it should be done. Then it's on to the rest of the armour.

I've started working on the lid. Fun times ahead.

I'm starting work on my shadow scout build. I'm going to take photos of the armour build to post here & probably my garrison forums as well. I'll keep you posted as the build goes on.

Looking great so far John. I'm looking forward to seeing the Death trooper at Ireland Garrison troops in the near future. Oh, you should tell Kevin that's the wrong way to wear the pauldron. However it does strangely suit him that way
