5573 and 99300's build thread

Post by 5573 »

Greetings from Sweden!

Two of us have started building Imp Praetorian Guard kits. We're planning to 3d print most of it using the Galactic Armory files and then make all the soft parts from scratch.

I'm about to look through all the build threads but does anyone have any links for weapons? Either pre-made or 3d files?

Some pics will follow as soon as some parts are printed :)

After reading some of the build threads, I found some weapons files from Empire 3d on Etsy :)

Hi all, as posted above we will be making the soft parts ourselves. In saying that, quick question on the material, feedback would be much appreciated.

Would this be acceptable for the coverall:

And possibly for the robes (not aiming for L3):

Hi!
The fabric for the jumpsuit looks good for me. The suede-like fabric for the skirt will probably do for basic level approvement. 170g is very thin. You will have to take at least two layers. I bought a cheap one as well, but there was a clear difference in quality compared to the american Ultrasuede or the Italian Alcantara (you can see the weaving under the suede on the ceap one).

Good luck with your project! Greetings from Austria

Undersuit fabric as well as skirt/cape fabric obtained.

Once patterns arrive will create some mockups and go from there.
