Matt's IAT Aldhani Build WIP
TreeHuggerMatt replied to TreeHuggerMatt's topic in Imperial Army Trooper - Andor
its been a pretty horrific time of late so plenty of things were on hold. Decided to go ahead with the V1 for now and can always sort the armour out later. Will be re printing some rifle bits and sorting the pistol out ( paint prep ) as I gotta do the rifle and pistol for extra cool -

Been doing any measurements / sizing on top of a very thick hoodie -
Matt's IAT Aldhani Build WIP
TreeHuggerMatt replied to TreeHuggerMatt's topic in Imperial Army Trooper - Andor
Decided to have a go at printing the armour , bells and biceps were measured and then scale checked. Rest of the armour pieces then scaled to suit. Why not try it , the absolute worst I have to do if that doesn't work is buy the WTF which after many chats I know will fit. Should be good as my scout is not an issue and that has a similar ( ish ) clamshell. Just doing the front pieces for now to see if worth pursuing -
Questions about Hard Parts

One thing springs to mind as we know I have bit of a belly at the moment. the top of the chest /back armour will be fine as the straps /webbing are easy to sort length wise.. Given the side section and the swoops I think it might be possible to extend / add a section to make the side join longer providing it meets the style of the ref pics? -

Spent a lot of time speaking to Walt about his stuff and hes seen pics and has measurements. We reckon it should be okay but at least can get the version 1 sorted If nothing else.. The scout was no issues with that armour and the bells are bigger on the IAT so will see , theres no rush and I am trying to lose weight so it'll be fun -

Imperial Army Trooper Blaster Versions
TreeHuggerMatt replied to fb501's topic in Imperial Army Trooper - Andor
Anyone got an assembly guide for the 10.5? got some files but wanna have something refer to. I know some folks have built them so hopefully someone can help. TIA -
looks like 1” webbing run through the rear sling point and then through the tri-glide if I have it right? watching the eye again just now and the armour definitely matte black. and the rank stripe on the bell looks gloss too and bottom and white in middle. Can distinguish but not easily

Imperial Army Trooper Blaster Versions
TreeHuggerMatt replied to fb501's topic in Imperial Army Trooper - Andor
yeah my wild guess would be fed through sling point at each end via the slider and then back again through it to stop its sliding out otherwise you'd never get it off it was stitched to itself -
Was there anything sorted re what the sling would need to be or is it just like a 1" black webbing with a slider and run through the sling points?

what's the width of the webbing? Also how is it fixed to the swivel , is it using a qd clip or say fed through and stitched on itself -

Imperial Army Trooper Blaster Versions
TreeHuggerMatt replied to fb501's topic in Imperial Army Trooper - Andor
wonder if that would be a direct drop from say an stl file for the rail to just drop on to the e10.5 as seen in Frasers pics? Just looking at Etsy now -
Flat/matte black will do , it’d make a nice base coat for something else anyway cheers buddy

Sorry to ask but I’m struggling about with the paint choice I know the cell says a range of choices but I’m at a loss as what to what that includes. it’s really hard to get the sw6994 in the uk but I have found what I think might do https://amzn.eu/d/iZTTT7R Wouks this be in that range?
