IcyTrooper[CMD-DL] Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Yeah you'd probably want it a little more flat. Link to comment

IcyTrooper[CMD-DL] Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 How's it coming along? Link to comment

But I've been going slow on it since not much can be done until after elections and everyone gets settled in for the new term. Link to comment
Rat[501st] Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 Okay now that elections are done I will continue. Back to work on the bucket after some paint mishaps and it is about 98% complete. Gluing the frown mesh and lens mounting is all that's left. 1 Link to comment
Rat[501st] Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 coolSo it is back to work and getting it done. 1 Link to comment

Rat[501st] Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 Yeah the biggest thing is my thigh ammo pack. Then it's just little things. Link to comment
Rat[501st] Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 Bucket just needs the lenses and fans mounted and it's done. Finally got the legs done after paint fixes. Getting the strapping measured and done now. 2 Link to comment

Rat[501st] Posted March 7, 2020 Author Share Posted March 7, 2020 So I got the first full test fit in despite not feeling well. Happy that I only have a few minor tweaks and adjustments to make and those are already underway. Almost to the finish line. Link to comment
Rat[501st] Posted March 7, 2020 Author Share Posted March 7, 2020 Got rid of that weird headlight look on the mic tips. Link to comment
Rat[501st] Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 So in the next day or so I'll be making a big photo update to this build and hopefully an end to the build. 1 Link to comment
Rat[501st] Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 So it's been slow going and life interrupting, but finally the end is near. So close to being done. 1 Link to comment

Rat[501st] Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 So the paint I used for this was Dupli-color Flash Red and Rust-oleum 2X gloss clear. I'll get some photos of the can with a product# tomorrow. 1 Link to comment
Rat[501st] Posted January 1, 2021 Author Share Posted January 1, 2021 So my gloss clear wasn't the 2X, but rather this instead. This is the automotive paint I used Dupli-color Flash Red. It only comes in a 8oz. can so I think it took me about two and a half or three cans for the entire kit. 1 Link to comment
Rat[501st] Posted January 12, 2021 Author Share Posted January 12, 2021 So I will be adding a DLT-20A to this. It's a PLA print from AprilStorms on etsy. Other than the pistol grip being a bit chunky it's nice and has a good weight to it. It sort of makes me sad I can't leave it with the black and red color scheme. 1 Link to comment
Rat[501st] Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 So finally got the DLT-20a finished up. Got it painted and some light weathering. I also acquired a SE-14 that I'll be working on also. So I'll have the entire array of crimson weapons. 1 Link to comment
