  1. Hello everyone. Just chiming in to say hello as a new member. I've ordered an AM 4.5 kit from Dave's Darkside Depot and am impatiently awaiting to BBB day! In the meantime I'm doing as much research as possible to hopefully complete a Centurion level build from the start rather than doing corrections later. I'll be submitting approval from the 501st Georgia Garrison. Looking forward to beginning my build!

  6. Excellent points, Justin. With the one you provided the link to all that has to be done is to remove the spout at the top, which can be covered with a plastic disc. It also has the advantage of having the indentation in the rear which allows the O I I detail on the backplate to have a place to fit in so the pack sits snugly against your body. I covered the hole in the back of mine with black craft foam to (as seen in pic 2) to prevent any scratches.

  7. Quick question: I'm not sure if it's possible, but is there a way to contact a person who posts a video on youtube via email or PM? The reason I ask is that if we could get in touch with the guy who did this particular one and explain our situation (501st accuracy nerds) he may give us access to at least a few of those "secret" photos me mentioned in his video showing some details. He obviously wants the world to know about them, and what better place than the HOME of TKs? I wonder if anyone in the UKG knows him? Hmmmm.

  8. On hold for the time being until we figure out if we are archiving the newsletters as it will impact posts on other pages and we may need to retrace our already completed pages

  10. I'd keep looking for the Wedco/Garage Boss style pan, as you'll need to mod the bottom of this one and it looks a bit too narrow. We strive for some consistency across packs and it is closest to the ideal dimensions without significant modification (just cut the filler necks off and patch over). They're back on Amazon and not terribly expensive. There's also this group for support if you're on Facebook! https://www.amazon.com/GarageBOSS-GB150-Quart-Drain-Funnel/dp/B01I7275GY https://www.facebook.com/groups/1397219333684032

  11. Final helmet update: The imperial cog is my favorite emblem and I thought it would look nice on the side of the blast shield. A sticker might have been the easiest way, but it needed to be heavily worn off. That required more work… Okay, here we go... A plaque was required, as this helmet will be in my RS collection and there it would look odd without it. The layout is close to the original RS plaques and I weathered it to match the style of this bucket. This project was planned for winter 2020/2021 and now comes to an end. Building something outside the CRL restrictions was indeed real fun. Would I do it again? Yes! It was more difficult than a normal helmet (oh wonder) but worth the effort. Maybe I would use a little brighter kind of green (like TS-5, TS-28 or even TS-78). And I would add an aiming device on the right eye. It still hurts to not have it. Anyway, it was a fun journey and I really enjoyed to run a build thread again. Many thanks to everyone here for reading and commenting. Actually I wanted this post to end with a 360 degrees video of the helmet with all lights on. Sounds easy, but after 13 takes I still ended up with issues on lighting, auto-focus and a wobbly rotation. So instead, I now close it with the final list of modifications and a few pictures: 1 - Blast Shield 2 - Black Interior 3 - Two-tone paint job 4 - Antenna and radio 5 - Utility belt 6 - Universal supply box 7 - Bacta canister (illuminated) 8 - Helmet flashlights 9 - Breathing tube 10 - Kill marks 11 - Aurebesh letterings 12 - Imperial cog on blast shield 13 - Skull face 14 - Weathering and paint chips 15 - ‘flesh wound with guts‘ 16 - Greeblies 17 - Blaster marks 18 - Helmet stand with customized display plaque Have a nice weekend Troopers and Cadets.

  12. Update: It was recommended that TrooperMaster on FB uses a similar color plastic and could supply me with scrap for shims. I’m in contact with him to try and get some and will let you know how it turns out.
