Revan WIP TK62000

Recommended Posts

I am about to embark upon a journey of streetlights, people, living just to find emotion, or a Revan build.

I have ordered from WA and should be shipping to me in mid Jan.

Didn't order greeblie pack so I think I still need to make the "leather" between the armor.

Need boots, have balaclava and gloves.

Looking forward to being part of the Flagship crew.

Got my Revan in from WA last night. Did a quick take it out of the box and put it on to fanboy a little. Now A few questions:

 

What's the best way to glue boot strap, E6000?

Need to find straps to replace ring holders at bottom of armor, best place?

How is the best way to mount the hood as that thing is a beast?

I used gorilla glue and just scuffed the two surfaces up a bit for the strap.

For the ring straps, I went and got some black pleather from Joann Fabrics.

I'm trying to think back to the MWA hood and just remember making sure to pull the flaps so they are tucked behind the armor to make the enclosed hood look. Also, make sure you have a piece of velcro stuck to the forehead of the mask and the other piece sewn into the hood so that it stays down and doesn't pull upwards.

I used sticky velcro on the mask about an inch above the brow, and sewing velcro on the seam of the inside of the hood. 

Do you have a photo I maybe able to use as a guideline please and thank you.

Got my approval this week plus my first troop in. Darn I learned a lot that I need to adjust that changes the way I wear this thing. Standing for photos is one thing, moving around, well that is another.

What method does everyone use to keep their forearms from twisting around during the troop? Found myself constantly having to twist them back into place during the last troop. 

Velcro on the inside of the forearm and sewn onto your shirt works.
