Femtrooper Julie

nice stuff!

It was the only compression spring I could find local that was close in diameter. Will keep looking though! Can not move my scope now, I used the template posted here, I think it was 8.3com from the rear sight. I can add an inner barrel on, do you just run a dowel inside from the barrel opening? Thanks for the feedback!

Oh yes, I did the cut off he screws, riviet pin for the front sight, and the rear bolt really moves Not bad for a femtrooper weapon!

I am going for the coveted EFTB (Expert Femtrooper Badge!) and decided to upgrade my E-11. I was always pretty proud of my Hasbros doopydoo kit, we have some troopers here with just plain Hasbro! But the difference in this kit is amazing! I did not realize how different they looked until I sat them side by side! Nothing real fancy with my build, it is not the most super accurate, but I like it! I hollowed out the front sight alot. Also hallowed out the rear catch. My rear bolt is prob too short now that I look at them. It is a piece of wooden dowl. I soaked a popsicle stick in water and clamped it around the dowel to get the right shape on the rifling detail. The springs are compression springs from Home depot, two with e-6000 joining them. I thought I was getting an aluminum bar for the scope rail, but I guess it is steel. It took a bit of cutting to get through! LOL! Since I had not seen a side-by-side, I'll post mine. Now I need one of those fancy blaster stands!

Capt Rex and Commander Fox were dispatched to investigate a report of rowdy behavior at Aloha tower. I tossed on my armor and decided to tag along...those guys get into all kinds of trouble, best to keep an eye on them. I never really trust clones anyway! I'll take one EIB Stormtrooper over 25 clones! Turns out we got there just in time, the crowd was really getting out of hand! You would not believe the shady types we ran into. Some chick with goofy hair in a white dress tried telling us some line about being a Senator on a diplomatic mission, we took her into custody, ISD can sort it out! The civilians can sleep well knowing that we kept Waikiki safe tonight See what I mean! Totally out of hand! This girl is wearing pastries for a bra!

That is excellent! What a great dad!

I am no expert, but does the right eye look pretty big on the RS?

oh, can also use a rivet pin or a nail for a front sight! Just drill a hole and pop it in! WOuld look great with your opened up front sight!

Tape roll FTW! I did the same on my hasbro! Maybe can fill in the screw holes and get allen screw heads for the tip?

Welcome! I am sure with a little help you'll have it sorted out and fitting great!

Oh noes! Even I know that is horrible!

bling bling!

Geesh, maybe time to upgrade the wife! :leia: Armor building is always #1 priority!

Got mine today in Hawaii! LOVE getting boxes of white plastic

um, I use my fingers to smear the E-6000 and then just rub it off lol. Sounds like good progress!

Rebel Legion approved!

Got my axe done tonight! We have a mini con this weekend, will get shots with our Death Star prop

I used the appliance epoxy on mine. When on really nice and glossy, and is really tough!

Yep, C6 for sure! Dragon maybe...took me a while to save my pennies for this, now is all C6 :leia:

Ha, thanks Darth! Make sure to tell us when you are coming over! Would be great to meet up!

Thanks for posting the photos! I think it looks great! Please overlook my peeling tan! The braid is a bit off color, and I need some tweaks, but I am happy overall! Wish me luck on approval!

Wow, someone get me one for Christmas!

Ok, call me crazy, but I was thinking of ordering a real sterling spring set for a doopydoos resin build. Looks like they are only $20, what do you all think? http://reocities.com/Pentagon/barracks/5220/SAPriceList.htm

Oh, very nice! Thank you!

And then? LOL!
