Popular Post Iconic_ctinferno Posted May 28, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2019 Hi all,?? Its been awhile since I've posted an update as to where I am at with Del. About a little over a month ago I sent in my approval pictures and unfortunately had issues with just my helmet. Everything else from neck down seems to be great so Im on the road to getting a helmet from Jim Tripon, which Ill be trying to paint and complete myself. As for the rest of????my costume I've just been making minor adjustments and at the same time putting together two pieces that arent part of the approval. One is my chest box, which for awhile I had not done anything with it but finally glued??on the first four boxes today and added the white strip yesterday. Still lots more to do with this little box but it will be done before the helmet. Second is my blaster which is almost all glue together and ill be on my way to doing bondo and primer and painting soon.?? Id like to just point out again how thankful I am to many of you here as much of whats been??made couldn't be done with y'all. I estimate to be ready and resubmit in time for Terrificon as I know painting helmets will take time.?? 4 Quentin Salgado : TX/TI/DS-72679 - CTG Public Relations Officer Approved Costumes: Inferno Squad - Del Meeko & Inferno Squad - Gideon Hask & Kylo Ren: TROS PW/ PH- 72679 Professional Wrangler / Handler Link to comment
Chewy Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I'm really, really glad you're still soldiering on with your costume despite the setback, Quentin. I can't wait to give you approval in your finished helmet. 1 1 Christopher Bailey??| TK-66402 Approved Costumes:??ANH Stunt??(Centurion) | Heavy Weapons Trooper??(Elite Infantry) In Progress: ANH TIE Pilot??| Zuckuss "Those who forget the past are doomed to... blah blah blah..."

Jimbo Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 What was not right with helmet #1 ? Sure looked good to me. Could??you share who helmet #1 builder was, so those wishing to do an approved Del don't go down the wrong road.... 1 Jimbo ANH Sandtrooper TD-11506 Link to comment

Could??you share who helmet #1 builder was, so those wishing to do an approved Del don't go down the wrong road.... Helmet #1 was not the correct style tie helmet. If my memory stands true I was told by Spec Ops that????it was a Return of the Jedi style tie helmet and the chin wasn???t correct. The Inferno helmets style must be Rogue one Tie style. The builder for the first helmet was JawaChopShop and good thing is he shut down his store as he was a 501st member who was making armor and props that were not 501st approvable and never communicated with people when they asked for refunds.?? 1 Quentin Salgado : TX/TI/DS-72679 - CTG Public Relations Officer Approved Costumes: Inferno Squad - Del Meeko & Inferno Squad - Gideon Hask & Kylo Ren: TROS PW/ PH- 72679 Professional Wrangler / Handler Link to comment
Iconic_ctinferno Posted July 17, 2019 Author Share Posted July 17, 2019 Here are some new things that were recently done, all thanks to Michelle Croutch! The disc on the ears of the helmet were molded since the helmet is fiberglass and so because I have real metal discs Michelle was kind??enough to sand down the molded ones. As for the teeth they were also cut out. Now it awaits my arrival so I can start adding bondo and sand it down!?? 2 Quentin Salgado : TX/TI/DS-72679 - CTG Public Relations Officer Approved Costumes: Inferno Squad - Del Meeko & Inferno Squad - Gideon Hask & Kylo Ren: TROS PW/ PH- 72679 Professional Wrangler / Handler Link to comment

Iconic_ctinferno Posted October 6, 2019 Author Share Posted October 6, 2019 So yesterday @Madxena??and I were able to finally put some paint on the helmet so here are some pics! Next would be decals but we are a bit worried with the matte black having good connection to the decals. Otherwise a fun day! Hopefully next we can have the decals on and then gloss!?? 2 Quentin Salgado : TX/TI/DS-72679 - CTG Public Relations Officer Approved Costumes: Inferno Squad - Del Meeko & Inferno Squad - Gideon Hask & Kylo Ren: TROS PW/ PH- 72679 Professional Wrangler / Handler Link to comment
