I'll be there with badge too. We've already met though Lou. Will it be the same?

After putting my armor on with belt, I taped my thighs in place. marked where the drop boxes hung down and glued my snaps to my thighs on that line. Yes, the straps are hidden behind the drop boxes on mine. --------

I'm sure it would work and yes, as long as you cannot see wires or holes in the drop boxes it will pass EIB. You'll hate it later when people are laughing at you because the sound is coming out of your crotch. I got it all the time when my speakers were down there. Never again.

ditto. takes 30 seconds.

Wait, is that from the movie? Or is it a reproduction of it? Looks nice either way.

Not too bad. I would suggest filming it again but not aiming the camera directly at a light. Everything is so very dark and back lit so you can't see the actual elements very well. Nice work on the comm system though.

October 27th, 2007 was the day I received my approval email. I spent 2 hours outside doing yard work while waiting for the email hoping it would come that day and it did. I started the 501st Legion as a Mountain Garrison member and about 5 months later transferred to Garrison Carida® when I moved back east to be closer to family.

Excellent work Jesse. Now to finish your trading card.

It would certainly be better if Mark could do it. Here is what I did. Probably not as good as he would as this is more his design and he knows what he did with all the others.

what you seek is an animated GIF. Easy to do. I can work on it tonight if no one has already taken care of it for you.

Legion Forums are back up and running. Albeit a little slow, they are up and running at least.

It's down on my end as well. I have called the Legion Webmaster directly. He will be on to see whats up tonight. He is at a trooping event right now.

Did James really just say giggling? hahahaaaa Thats great. Thanks for posting, James.

Lori-Ann. the rear most rib is usually the one with the black bar/bars on it.

The ear isn't finished. I beliebe it should be stroked around teh outside of the gray shape as well as having a black bar over one or more of the ribs. I could be wrong and you don't really need it but I have never seen one without it. This is how my hero helmet is. I am not completely sure it is different for a Stunt. ------------

I second what Jesse said. It's been great working with everyone and am happy that I had something to offer to this project. I also am very much looking forward to getting cards. I will likely put off my order so that I might be able to get my EIB first as I am just so darn close to getting it already.

I've never had problems with paint sticking to ABS. And I've never sanded or primered.. Of course I have never painted a full helmet before. Just the frown and chin.

That's awesome Lou. Congrats to you both.

I love that I can have a 3rd card now. and one that isn't limited to quantity. I'm getting a lot of these.

Why not just buy an armor kit and make your own statue that fits on a Mannequin?

I wear Nomex flight gloves. While not screen accurate, they fit more in the universe of Star Wars but they sure are comfortable. Who else wears rubber gloves for their uniform? Those silly TK's.

I use this too. bought a HUGE roll of it for like $5 or $6. Send your address and I'll throw some in the mail for you.

If you have to shim to make it larger to fit your size there shouldn't be a problem with it.

I glued my shoulder straps on the front as well. I use 1/8" white elastic strap just as they do in the movies. I used Goop in the hollow ribbed area and CA glue around the very edge to glue it. ---------

I'd like to see a more chiseled version of the chest plate that works for a female. I think the IK armor in the comics has a similar style like this. I've thought about attempting it myself and letting someone else do the pulls for me but i have neither the time nor skills to do that so I just sit back and wish. Personally I like your version better, Julie.
