Great Lakes Garrison & Base

Might as well post the eyecandy too

So, I've finally gotten around to putting some work into my DW Mando. I'm pretty much down to waiting on the flak vest, a little tailoring and mounting my backpack. So I have a harness designed to use quick clips which you can see below. The shape of the animated mando back plate doesn't allow for m...

Did some mock-ups out of cardboard today for the horns. I also made my first test mock-up with magnets. It was a partial success in that the magnet actually held the horn in place, unfortunately it wanted to rotate on me. So I've got an idea I need to test out tomorrow using some pins along with the...

You know me... Slow and steady

Well I wrapped up paint on everything I have in the shop at the moment. Nothing as exciting as the first batch, this is all gray and black. I did final assembly on the gauntlet however and I'm pretty happy with the end result. http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q128/bswedorski/Death%20Watch/IMG_0528...

Well after the successful color and weathering test yesterday morning I spent the rest of the day finishing the red parts of the armor. I also went back and weathered my pistols (I'll have to get a pic of those later) because they were looking a little too shiny for my taste. The best news however w...

Got an early start today. I painted up my boots and did a color test for the red on the shins. I figured they would be the easiest thing to sand down and repaint if I didn't like the looks of them. I'm happy with the results and will be finish in up the red on the rest of the armor pieces over the w...

Getting close to the fun part! All of the parts have been primed and I've hit all of the pieces that will eventually be red with a coat of silver metallic. I'm hoping to put some quality time in this weekend on the painting of those parts. I've got a new helmet on order from Skirata Arms which I hop...

And today's project..... After assembling the forearms, I took measurements and mocked it up in AutoCAD. Using the screen caps, I proportioned the size of the communicator to Kev's to the top of the gauntlet. I used a base of 1/8" MDF board and then took a trip to the hardware to buy a few misc...

This will be 501st approvable when complete although there are none to date. There are at least two other people I am aware of starting this project. If things work out for me on the supply side I could be looking at a Legion first :) It's not really my goal but it would be cool nonetheless. As far ...

Updates: My flight suit is officially on order hopefully I'll have that around the beginning of July. I met withmy local seamstress over the weekend to get the Flak Vest started. Here is the material I'm using for the vest. I went with a upholstery vinyl in a dull black color. I plan to make the bel...

I just can't help myself, two animated clones and now I am tackling animated death watch :) Long Live the Clone Wars. I will be building the Super Commando patterned after Darth Maul below. I have started with the following: Blasters: Woodchuck with LED's (couldn't resist splurging on these) Armor: ...

If anyone has some spare Humbrol Gray and Semi-Gloss Black for TK Helmets, I was hoping you might bring it to MCCC so I can borrow it for my helmet.

Much appreciated.

Trim the top never the bottom

I agree with wags use superglue and get yourself some accelerator.

The whole problem with this scenario is that he actually asked in the first place I seem to recall there being a no keg rule in my dorm but that didn't stop me when I was in college.

Rex is officially approved.

Got to troop him last weekend at Highland library. The staff is supposed to e-mail us some pics and Dave's wife took a few as well.

You so need to do your sculpt based on this
