TI18425[501st] Posted yesterday at 06:51 AM Share Posted yesterday at 06:51 AM Hi! Still pretty new to the 501st world but I got my Tie reserve pilot approved this month! So happy to be a part of the 501st officially! Anyways in-between getting that done I've been slowly working on my Del Meeko. I have around 85% of what I need for it. Things I still need to do, waiting on. - waiting on my boots. - need to find the shoulder ammo pouch - need to figure out how to pad my helmet, add fans and speakers/mic? - install red bubble lenses. - hoses - compad - weapon holster - finish painting helmet and armor. - finish gluing and painting DLT-19X. Whats done (for the most part) - chestbox (besides mounting it to the chest) - flightsuit (need to add patches) Also whats the best way to attach the armor together? Snaps? Velcro? I'm still reading and watching a bunch of videos but thought id see if anyone had any best practice tips or anything. Finally I have attached a link to my google drive with images ill be updating as I progress with my build. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1S_03ISGRH5hm31iNdOciyM3wQPrnSvKq Thanks for reading Tyler TI 18425 1 Link to comment
tipperaryred[CMD-DCA] Posted yesterday at 07:17 AM Share Posted yesterday at 07:17 AM Great job Tyler, I always enjoy seeing another Inferno kit coming together. For the armour I'd definitely recommend velcro. I tried a few other methods but nothing else was as reliable or simple as that. I epoxied the hard shoulder straps to the rear plate, then used velcro to attach the shoulder straps to the chest plate, and then more velcro to attach the side plates. 1 Link to comment
