Knocking them out quick. Right on. More of an Army to take down the Colonies a notch or two. Strength in numbers.

yes. but I have kind of a bigger upper back so it pops out anyways. Again - If you look at the Centurion folder in the picture archive then you see many pictures from the original. The one pictured does not have that portion closed off with a separate strip.

Nice work so far!

Did you also got a second helmet or is it the already assembled one?

Its the same helmet as before, I just striped the paint off and repainted it with the correct color.

One thing about the screen accurate Cylon back pack they do have a large hunch back that from a side view looks a tad bit like a wide upside down "V" while a Krop back back looks like a upside down "L" with no lift at all, but a great device for choking.

I should point out that I don't have a korp backpack. Mine is from Hand-Schaub. I do have a new question, On the front cap of the neck, in these pics you can see that the top neck plate is on top of the front cap, is this correct?

Post by **Hand-Schaub** » Fri Apr 01, 2011 10:35 pm

yes. That is why it is trimmed thin there, so it fits better. Mind that the original was thinner plastic so it looks thin. You may need to bevel the thicker plastic to make it appear more flush.

Guess its time to post, had some progress on my armour.

Question... the shoulders look different sizes(see pic) is this correct????

YouTube · Post by **Cylon-Knight** » Mon Oct 24, 2011 11:51 am

The shoulder bells are just crooked. One is sitting more toward the front, one more toward the back. The leg armor is also positioned wrong and finally the arm armors are on backwards. Yeeesh... is that Cylon drunk!?

They weren't the most knowledgable Cylon builders that put that guy together.

Look at the Armor parts on his boots

They are also not in the correct position
