Re: Shikkakku's Mandalorian Praetorian Guard: Build Thread and WIP

Forearms and Chestplate- Assembly and Strapping https://i.ibb.co/DDm77fC/20231010-215555.jpg Once the replacement pieces were received, I started on the forearms. First I figured out how much overlap I needed in front and back to fit my forearms and hand. Important thing to note with this Jim kit i...

Re: Shikkakku's Mandalorian Praetorian Guard: Build Thread and WIP

Abs and Yoke- Hip plate holes, racing fins and strapping For the yoke, I decided to use a strip of 2” webbing with snaps across the gap of the yoke, to match up with snap plates on the chestpiece. Make sure to add some slack to this one since it will need some stretch to properly snap onto the ches...

Bell and Bicep- Strapping and padding Based on my research, I know that the bells and biceps are connected via webbing straps with adjustable buckles and partially velcro-ed onto the undersuit. The bells are also connected to the top shoulder of the yoke via short black webbing straps. I played aro...

Shin greeblie attachment and strapping Next up are the shins. I glued on the recessed clip greeblies with superglue, and used 2-part epoxy for the kitkat greeblies. From experience with the TLJ-PG, these greeblies tend to get smacked on corners and walls, so they need to be stuck on strong. https:/...

Re: Shikkakku's Mandalorian Praetorian Guard: Build Thread and WIP

Abs: Strapping I decided to start with the abs. My thought was to use 2-3 wide (1.5”-2”) webbing straps and buckles to close the back, with a suspender rig to keep it up. Since all attachment points would be hidden by the chestpiece and cape, I also decided to not use snap plates and just add snaps...

Re: Shikkakku's Mandalorian Praetorian Guard: Build Thread and WIP

Vibro Double-Blade (Vibro-Arbir) While I waited for some more items to come in for the armour and soft parts, I decided to get at least one of the weapons printed. As we had a lot more references to work with for the Vibro Double-Blade, that was the first weapon Nic of Empire3d modelled and so I st...

Hi Fives, I think you've posted this on the wrong subforum. I'll ask someone to move it to a different sub!
