Gaugerage[TX] Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Hey Green Guys and Gals. It is I, The Selfie Scout of the Redback Garrison. I've been a Regular Scout for just over a year and after seeing 2 Swampy scouts at Dream World 2016. It made me want to be the Ash of the scout wolrd, I gotta get them all. A little back story on my kit. I got it from KS (never again) took me a good time to get it assemble and what not. But I'm looking to work to get to Lancer level with an new kit in the near future. The amazing kit I currently have will be converted to the Swamp Scout. Any help will be much appreciated. Will post pictures of the progress as it unfolds. Cheers and Smile. Link to comment
Darth Emphatic[CMD-DWM] Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Hey Stephen, this is great news! The fact that you have to scout armor already will definitely speed up the process. Can't wait to see your swampy! Link to comment

Gaugerage[TX] Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 Today I decided to get a can of Rust-oleum and give it a coat. I must say that I'm in love with the green. It looks really good and dries fast too. I've yet to make the decision on if I'll be doing the spraying or to a car body place. As for the webbings and leather Boot cover, I'll be ordering them soon. Need some advice on the sticker for the helmet and visor. Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment

The three lines on top front and the fish hook are black along with the stripes on back of helmet. The rest are supposed to be grey stickers. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment

Gaugerage[TX] Posted January 11, 2018 Author Share Posted January 11, 2018 So a small update for 2018. Got some small parts sprayed and painted. Won't be doing any weathering until after approval. Will be painting the chest and back and some of the bigger parts in the next few days. Things still needed to be made -boots -cummerbund Need to order in the helmet stickers. * open to suggestions on maker * Enjoy the pictures. *Disclaimer* the guy spraying is not me. That's wade, a clone trooper. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
Gaugerage[TX] Posted January 12, 2018 Author Share Posted January 12, 2018 Alright day 2 of painting and more painting. Only thing that's left to be painted is the helmet back as it's drying from the filling of the lines. Now is to make the boots, buy the stickers for helmet, assembly of parts with strapping. Funds to be set aside for cummerbund and flight suit. Than I should be ready to put it all together. Exciting times. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment
