Desert OSDT custom variant

[DeRanKeR]

Oh I hope that rank tape isn't yours. If so, dam you again. I'm only a E-3 (Private First Class) What you could do is, add the tapes your shoulder tapes as part of your armor. Like me, since I'm with the 53rd Infantry Division, and that being part of the Florida National Guard, I
m going to use those for my shoulders. Also You can take your rank tape (or get more) and place it on your chest piece (Right where it angles down a bit.) Anyway, I got the idea one day when working I looked over and there was my uniform, and I took it from there. I love to see another ACU ODST!

um, if you are planning on doing desert, why are you doing ACU? ust a nagging question thats been bothering me.

Well, i am glad you asked. To clear things up.....
I have Acu uniform that i will use as the base uniform.
My current environment is the desert.
The light color base in ACU is a tan color. I am using the tan as a base color for the armor. I will lightly add the acu digital pattern to the thighs and forearms to mimic the style of the ODST coloration. The acu pattern will only be the addition of the foliage green from the ACU uniform. The chest and the stripe on the helmet will be the foliage green as well. I am thinking about this more and more and i wish i could draw and put my idea in color on paper. I should have had the patch made with the foliage green instead of the DCU brown. If i was wearing DCU's it would make more sense. It may change as i start painting it but supplies are limited and it will all be sanded down and re detailed when i get home anyway.

why not use desert marpat?

[sgtski]

Because this idea is inspired by my uniform. I want to be able to wear it for fun before i leave and have it match somewhat to what i am stuck wearing underneath it.

well it would be really cool if we could get like snow ODSTs, desert ODSTs along with the regular ODSTs. make something like STAR WARS with the clone troopers....

Id be down with that lol.

Your pep work and resin looks really good. The snow armor does sound like a good idea.

Variety is a good thing. I should have some fiberglass work done and the chest core from Hughs done this weekend.

I REALLY want to see how you're pulling this one off. I've run into this problem and I'm sure you either already have or will soon. But my combat boots don't fit through the shin piece... If you can think of something creative please let me know.
