Re: Homemade Clone Trooper Armor

First finished parts are now painted with white primer! I think it's a very nice base color, so I can save on paint

Re: Homemade Clone Trooper Armor

First ready-to-paint-and-weather pieces. I really like how they look with the white primer

Re: Homemade Clone Trooper Armor

Thanks!

Those arm parts look the cats pyjamas.

Obscure expression for a non english speaker person like me, but thank you! (I guess?)

I decided to improve the hand plate before continue. Here you can see the new version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urKQmUQN-oM

Shoulder straps are done! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_LFPY9aUjA


(the strap "holder" in the chest plate still needs to be polished after being reinforced with styrene paste)

 

[Sergiotron]

Re: Homemade Clone Trooper Armor

The Chest plate and Backplate are now securely connected! It's a little and kinda complicated system I designed, but it works perfectly!

PROCESS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kvHLFHERgA

And this is how they look connected (still a little rough but I can finally start polishing it!)
