the new MB kashyyyk scout trooper build thread

[Skupilkinson]

Absolutely! Looking forward to seeing the first pull!

 

[Optimus Rhyme]

Man I am so pumped to see the first pull as well. I am glad that everything is well.
Just making sure.

 

[stormtrooperguy]

i hope to have prototype pulls and a prototype costume done by the end of the month and ready to start making the KS kits.
:cheers

that prototype stage is pretty interesting... i haven't had a single piece yet that didn't need some tuning before i'd be willing to make parts for other people.

it will be great seeing this stuff walking around with a person in it!

 

[mrbungle]

yeah the protoype stage is going to be fun. making sure all the parts work together and look right together.

the plus side is i did sculpt the armor as wearable armor before i turned the masters into vacform plugs. i triesd on the pieces to make sure they fit. so they should fit together pretty well.

i am very excited to get the prototype together!!!!

 

[Mandalorian Guard]

This looking impressive build? Will you be making these kits for people in the future?

 

[nzjedi]

What I want know is, how big of a bonus that crooked CEO is going to get on the completion of the project.

 

[mrbungle]

she is already recieving bonuses in the form of dog biscuits and the dang project is not even completed yet!!!!

just like a greedo CEO!

 

[mrbungle]

here is the test pull for the rubber belts. you wrap the main belt around your waist then use the small piece to fill in the gap.
this should work fine when all trimed up.

 

[Optimus Rhyme]

Looks pretty good for a first pull man. Great job.

 

[mrbungle]

yeah the next one should be cleaner and the rubber is a little old.

 

[Boomer Fett]

Now Tom, for those that got in on the lids early we get a discount when these go to sell right?????? *you really want to give me a discount* hand wave.....

 

[mrbungle]

let me assume a popular seller's voice from TDH.......... aahhemm.


"This will be the most accurate suit ever. We managed to get measurments from a distance to bring you the most movie accurate and exact sizing ever. We snuck into the ILM archives and stole the real deal to make molds of the screen used costume.
Now we are going to makes these availible to the good people of the Dented Helmet.
I know it only cost me 200 bucks to make the complete costume but I will sell these kits on TDH for 9999 bucks. Because you guys are my personal piggy bank .........I mean we are a community and i am here to help you build the best costumes ever.

Nate

btw

yeah the next one should be cleaner and the rubber is a little old.

now come on Tom, ur momma must have warned you abt the dangers of using old rubbers ;p

 

[mrbungle]

here are some more parts.

i designed the tank so the greeb should just fit in the slot made for it.

got the shins looking a little better.

here is the boot armor.

here the back plate that the tank will sit in.

forearm piece.

 

[mrbungle]

here are the belt buckles for the boot armor i made. the parts are made from a scrap piece of roof flashing. i made the greebs to be glued on the flashing.

here is the belt i just pulled. much cleaner than the first pull. i am experimenting alittle to try to get grey bars with a black background, that way we don't have to paint the rubber. you can see in the smaller belt where i added more tint to the rubber. the back of the belt is getting darker compared to the bars on the belt. i think it is possible to get the right look on the belts by playing with the tints added to the rubber. fill in the bars with the gray tinted rubber , then come right on top of it with black tinted rubber.
