[Commander Tac]

Definitely my favourite MOC I've ever made!. :3

I updated my old one a bit 'cos (Hopefully) this will go on display at Brickworld!

Amazing. I am very impressed with your building skills

Kevin Lauer kindly agreed to display my 'Ardsuit at Brickworld, but he needed some pictures in case it got damaged during transport, so I made some instructions.

The 'Ardsuit in one piece.

The different sections of the hardsuit.

Bag 1: Body and Fig'

The back bit, six jumpers here.

As you can it's a 2x6 with two 2x3s.

The main body, the guns are held in by the brackets.

A better shot, two 1x6s attach to the bricks with studs on two sides. The 1x1 plates with rings go in between the bricks, this is how the fig' is attached.

How the back bit attaches to the front.

Bag 2: Shoulders

A travis brick, headlight and a brick with studs on two sides. You can see how the cheeses are attached.

The back of it.

Bag 3: The Gun

Travis bricks, 1x1 plates and tiles.

Altogether.

Bag 4: The Feet

Two skis attach to the magna guard body. The binoculars with clip go on the front. A Brickarms U-Clip connects the handlebars to the back of the body, the minifig' arms then go on the handlebars.

Bag 5 & 6: The Legs

Two battle droid bodies attach to a brick with studs on two sides. A 1x1 clip connects it to a handlebar with hands. the 2x2 rounds then go on the rods. A grilled cheese goes on the front of the brick and the 1x1 round goes on the back. A 1x1 clip goes on the end, it connects the leg to the foot.

Bag 7 & 8: The Arms

The main bits of this is the travis brick with 2x2 dishes, 1x1 rounds and cheeses. They attach to the battle droid body with clips and a grilled cheese. The hand goes on the end and the clone blaster with hands goes on the top.

The binoculars go onto the 1x1 clip (The anti-stud facing outwards) then the revolvers go into them. The clip with hand goes into the space on the 1x1 clip.

Putting it all together

The figure goes onto the 1x1 plates with rings and the back plate goes on.

The shoulders go on.

The gun goes on. The clone blaster goes into the 1x1 clip.

The clone blasters fit into the travis brick, connecting the arm to the shoulders.

The leg connects to the 1x1 clip.

And finally the foot goes on!

That's it, how to make my 'ardsuit. :)

Very interesting design, Commander Tac, and thanks for sharing the instructions!

P.S.: I'll move this to Sci-fi, where it belongs

Sorry, I thought it was more Apocalypse/Modern than Sci-Fi.
