spiderboyy[TX] Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Hey guys, I've never built any before, but I thought I'd try my best at building a workable Del Meeko. I'm working really hard, and I had a question about the helmet. I'm curious about the weathering, is it too much to be considered acceptable? This is prior to clear coat. Any help would be greatly appreciated Link to comment
Chaos[CMD-DCA] Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 CRL: "Helmet may contain lightly done silver weathering but is not required" Weathering looks black/dark gray. You might want to ask your GMO before you clear coat it. Link to comment
spiderboyy[TX] Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 Just a heads up, I spoke with my GMO for my local Garrison, as long as the Red isn't overpowered I'm good to go! Thanks! 1 Link to comment
Chaos[CMD-DCA] Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Good to hear! I never really understood why it said silver, most grime is black or brown. Link to comment
spiderboyy[TX] Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 I guess its intended to simulate metal coming though the paint Link to comment

Sent from my LG-G710 using Tapatalk I'm actually not sure. I ordered them separately, I never got a full kit from anyone, I pieced the armor together from various suppliers. HSP and Jimmiroquai also make straps Link to comment

For the chest rig straps, I had a seamstress wrap leather I got from a fabric store around the nylon straps, and sew vertical stitches Link to comment
