krewkid82's ESB W.I.P./501st shenanigans(BH-42090)

[Krewkid82]

Haha thanks droidbait its my 4th build. 1080ti, i7-7700k, 32gb ram all water cooled in a thermal take p5 case. It's about 2 years old now, same age as my son lol.

Got another update for yall! AFFO$ has come through with some more progress on the RKD armor. He said he had a bit of a hiccup with two of the chest pieces (the yellow ones in the pic) and had to strip them down and repaint them. Everything is back on track now though and will be pulling the latex off of those for the next layer. He also got the base layers on the shoulder bells.

AFFO$ coming through with another update: He said he is chugging along on the upper pieces finishing them up. He also has trimmed some of the other parts of armor. Going to start painting them after he gets off work tomorrow. Super excited guys!!

AFFO$ coming through with a surprise update on my RKD armor: He still needs to weather everything and paint the chest symbol but it's looking so good!!! I'm going to be sooo jealous of my own armor lol!

 

[droidbait]

Woo looking good!

 

[MMcFett]

That looks good!

For some reason I stopped getting notifications on this thread and man have you made some progress! Looking absolutely killer! Looks like someone will be finishing up soon!

 

[Krewkid82]

I've been wondering where your comments were lol...ya hopefully Paul is gonna knock this armor out real quick then I can just focus on ordering a ee3, buying paints, painting my blasters, suit, and boots. A few more odds and ends and I should have a replica on my hands!!

 

[Jetpackfett]

That’s awesome! So satisfying to see everything come together! It feels really good knowing the end is getting near. Can’t wait to see you start suiting up in everything!

 

[Krewkid82]

Thanks man I haven't seen progress on your build in awhile either..gotta get some more posted on it!

 

[Jetpackfett]

I know, I have plenty to update and I need to do it soon. I was holding off to do my first partial suit up and post then but I just need to go ahead and update. I had a pretty huge setback today that’s still making me nauseous thinking about it. Let’s just say I’m gonna need a new helmet.

 

[Krewkid82]

O no!! I hope your able to get another one going whatever has happened.

 

[Jetpackfett]

I’ll have to post an update about it it’s not pretty. In fact I’ll post one this morning

 

[Krewkid82]

Got another update from AFFO$ on a few more pieces of the armor and once again he does not disappoint:

 

[Jetpackfett]

I love the ESB right shoulder that misted black always looks so good! I know you gotta be thrilled!

 

[Krewkid82]

I'm stoked dude! I just want to put it all on hahaha

 

[Krewkid82]

Lets get another update up from AFFO$: He is finishing up the paint on the abdomen plate. The upper chest pieces are done(minus the "Jaster" symbol). Just a few more stages left and he should have everything finished but the gauntlets! His paint work is amazing so far! I cant wait to receive everything and get all of these pieces attached!!

Wow amazing!

 

[Krewkid82]

Droidbait I know right!!

 

[Boochman]

Krewkid82 and how are you going to go about attaching the armor? Curious which method you think you’ll go with!

The silver on your armor is crazy! I love how metallic it looks! Paul does amazing work!
