Dave's DT WIP


Recommended Posts

I began this project a few month ago when I finally had the kutzpah to just say screw it and dive in. All of my parts are coming from different vendors and are as follows

Helmet: Anovos 

Armour: KB Studios 

Undersuit, Belt, Boots, Gloves: Imperial Boots 

E-11D: Branfuhr Studios

SE-14R: Maz Props

LEDs: UKSWrath

So far I have completed the SE14 and E11d. The under suit needs some sewing for the knee gaskets but otherwise ready to wear.

I used a trick by another builder and for the scorching on the barrel I used eyeshadow and automotive clear coat. The rest are decals, and duplicolor black wheel paint covered by the same clear coat. I will have to repaint the SE-14R as well. Hopefully I can get these damned pictures to work as I go.

Absolutely use us for help.  Your weathering on the rifle looks great I used to airbrush transparent paint on to motorcycle models for that scorched effect.  I would love to have that on my rifle rack wall.

Armour arrived. Pretty disappointed in the orange peeling on the ab and back though. I don't know how I'm going to do this, the kit looks like it's made for a 400 pound sumo trooper. lol. Slimming the thing down is going to require a lot of skill I simply do not have right now and it is extremely frustrating and daunting at the moment. Again any tips and tricks are welcome....

Hi Dave,

amazing work you have done there!

Unfortunately, I don't have any suggestion regarding your armor, but there is another thing that has caught my eye:
The stock of your E-11D is upside down. As far as I know it should be flipped.

Oops. Good catch man. Going to have to fix that asap!

Well it's been a bit of a roller coaster... After much consideration I thought I'd sell the KB kit, but I reeled it in and decided against it. In the time after I've completed the shoulders, biceps and the forearms. Since then I also have made a lot of progress with setting the collar, attaching the side straps and screwing in the chest buckles.
