FYI, with a huge thanks to @revlimiter, Fire Team Whiskey now has an official logo! It may have taken a while to get to this point, but the end result is *perfect*. Fabuloso, even :)

Hello, my name is Dan. I am in the Makaze squad of the Florida Garrison. I currently have an Imperial Death Trooper but also wanted an ANH Stunt. I put in my order today so now its just a waiting game to get my kit and start trooping in it!

You may also want to rotate the TD backwords, so the O detail can be seen No paint on gums, "Frown is painted gray and does not leave the teeth area. " You may want to touch up some of your lines, some are touching the border, also some extra paint. Tooth picks are a good tool to rub off excess paint. Your ear is also sitting higher than the other side, normally these sit down under the ridge Join of your neck seal is on the side, should be under the front or back of the helmet Drop box elastic may be too tight, usually there is a gap between them and the belt Tighter strapping on sides so the tops align and your posterior as can see a tab behind

Hi, looks good. I have a few items that are sticking out to me. I am not a GML, but I have worn this kit for awhile and I can see some spots that might be physically painful if not fixed. 0. I would trim the return edge more along the abs. That will get uncomfortable if it's jabbing you all the time. 1. I don't know this maker too well, but those calves look reversed to me. I may be wrong, the calves took me forever to figure out. 2. The top of the eye holes is a bit rough. I'm not sure if you can clean that up since the lenses are installed, but it might be nice to smooth that with a dremel or sanding. 3. Your forearms can be moved downward a bit to reduce the gap between it and your hand. 4. Personal preference by I am on the side of trimming off return edge where able. The hand plates need some trimming as it looks like they extend beyond the edge of the return edge. Curving the return edge will help it sit on the hand better. 5. You already know about the shoulder strap issue. 6. Right leg ammo belt seems like it could be adjusted to lay a little more parallel to the ground. 7. The TD brackets seem like they extend a little more than I'm used to seeing. The little ridgy part is angled up rather than out. Not sure how critical that is. Looks good. Good luck on your further approval process.

Okay, I had promised photos with the figure next to the helmet, but first there is one last modification. My display case also houses a Boba Fett figure. The flames from the Jet Pack were left over... They fly now! They fly now? They fly now. The radio antenna was finally added and as a last step I carefully put everything in the display case. And for those who want to see it, here is the full display case. Thank you for reading and have a nice weekend.

Now it is time for some weathering. Yes, it appears to be a lot but that works in this tiny size. When this figure is placed inside my display case, the weathering should still be visible. Equipped with a DLT-20A, it now looks like this: Noticed the injury on the knee? The figure looks pretty cool so far, but of course I haven’t forgotten @TKSpartan and @Bulldog44, asking for ‘a badass weapon and a backpack’. But not just any backpack, it had to be something special. In the last photo you can also see the E-11 blaster, being added to the Jump Pack’s left side. Talking about blasters, I had to find something special for this action figure… This suited much better and looked good enough to deserve the term ‘badass weapon’. And here is how it looks all together: I really love how this turned out in the end. It now reminds me on the ‘Heavy Infantry Mandalorian’ although this was not my inspiration. Anyway, to me it’s good enough to place it next to my custom helmet (photos to follow) and give an impression, of how the full Trooper might look like. Hope you had some fun reading this build.

Just submitted my pre-approval. Here's hoping...
