Femtrooper Julie

Ok! Wish I could see it! I need a TK!

Just asking, self nomination for DL is allowed? Not like command staff elections that have to be nominated, seconded, and accepted? A Robert's rules does not require a second unless the group does. Not that I can vote, or see the board

That's it! That is what I used on femtrooper, after TE2 recommended it. Don't go heavy with the coats though. it dries from top down. A heavy coat will stay soft underneath forever

TE2 only uses Rustoleum performance enamel Looks good on the trooper I saw!

I wore those same boots with femtrooper!

I have done femtrooper in 5" heels, it is some work! They do an event here in hawaii like that, it is very popular!

One of the thrills of the event for meeting was meeting my good friend and FISD Founder Daetrin! What an awesome person! My only regret of CVI is just that there are so many activities and things to do that I did not get to just relax one-on-one with as many people as I would have liked. At least I got photos to always remember the time! Bobojuice looks nothing like I expected! Oliva looked so great in her armor! I LOVE stormtroopers, and always thought I was way to short to do it....but maybe....I have all the extremity parts, I just need the chest/abd/kidney/butt plate.... Eric and his lovely fiancé were so sweet! LOVE them! The famous (and gorgeous!) Lady in white!

Great shots! You guys looked amazing!

Great shots!

I don't know if it was the same guy, but I noticed a trooper go by me in total old school FX, plastic belt/black buttons and all. His helmet was the worst yellow I have ever seen. I mean not even white...YELLOW! I was very surprised to see how bad it looked.

He was from HA? Like a comedy school? LOL! We need to send you to Hawaii school, it is "HI" LOL!

Lol, howlie like a werewolf? Or "Haole"?

That is so sweet David! Wish she had gotten a photo? Let me know your address, I'll send some cards!

Start saving!

Last day of Celebration. So sad to see all the troopers packing boxes and going home. I so wish it would last just a few more days I am always a very happy person, but the last few days have been heaven. I really felt like I found "home." I thank FISD and all the legion troopers that were so nice and made me feel so comfortable. Thank you all! I love all of you! Thank you so much! I just feel like my heart is going to explode from all the happiness. My special souvenir is an autographed Carrie Fisher Slave Leia photo, but I have so many special patches, cards, pins, and other gifts from the troopers. Now back to the photos! I am always a hyper-critical judge of my photos, but I think that staying up late partying every night, and spending all day in costume is starting to show LOL! Still, it was fun! "hyper" is so charming! I never knew a trooper could get down on one knee to propose!

Dark Side Grotto Party. Simply insane, no other words!

Exactly!

More from today! And yes, that is him!

Speaking of looking happy, I think TKrestonva is in TK heaven! LOVE her armor! It really fits great!

Here are some from the bash! I tried, but could not find Paul! The fuzzy photo is Mark Hamil on the stage!

More pics soon! And yes, I am about to explode from Happiness! So, so , so amazing. I can not say it any other way! And the banquet/bash...wow, just wow. Mark Hamil spoke, Peter Mayhew, Ian McDiarmid, Anthony Daniels, a message from George Lucas....just wow! Today was Rebel Legion group shoot, I wore my Leia. It got a bit cold! I am looking forward to Juno tomorrow for the 501st shoot, then swap into Leia. Looking at all the wonderful ladies of FISD there, I really wish I was just a bit taller! They look so good in their TK! Slacker troopers at lunch! Lord Vader better not see this! LOL! Animal trooper was so nice! Someone said they are going to make a clone army of Slave Leias! Roxy...wow! Collectible? FISD in the house! I love a sharp trooper Darren from OSCS Rebel Legion Shoot, The 501st will be 10X!

Femtrooper Julie checking in! Had SO much fun meeting everyone yesterday! Look forward to more fun today! I am on sensory overload! I met Brian Muir, he loved the femtrooper! Took a photo with Kris Kuipers, met the famous Bobo Juice with is gorgeous friend Oliva, Lady in White is amazing! And this tall Imperial Officer kept following me around! LOL This is seriously one of the best times I have ever had! It was my true honor to be invited to the FISD wedding proposal, that was so amazing! Thank you Eric, and congrats to the lovely couple!

Oh yes, I now have a real neck seal too!

It has been almost a year since I last wore femtrooper...It was made by Ritchies armor, and as I learned more about armor, I realized that it was not the best quality armor. Last fall, the shoulder bells just "flopped", they were almost flat! The shins were brittle and cracking, and then the back plate went soft too. So now I have TE forearms, ATA shoulder bells and back, and RT-MOD shins. Rumor is that my thermal det was once owned by a well known and renown stormtrooper I got some help from the Outpost, restrapped/snapped, and painted the whole thing. These boots will not work for C6, but I am ready to pack!

Oh, I forgot "American Dream" I have dabbled with catwoman, but would not call this a full costume. It is just ears and a tail LOL
