Approved!! and great work trooper you may want to use some snaps or Velcro to help keep that belt centered

great ideas!!

you will need to get a peice of 2" pvc for the thermal detonator. and good luck with the build, ATA is a fun build

some heavy modding/hacking for e-11's (unless they have a hollow counter), but i was thinking bazooka's and bfg's

i just saw this and i gotta hack one of theses bad boys up. it would make an awesome programmable blaster sound generator, with sd card and mp3 playback support.just add a VU circuit for lights and some minor switching tweaks and it would be almost as good as blaster core if not better price wise ----------- i hope to hack one up after the holidays

i noticed that also and sent a pm earlier today lol, it looked like a good fit

i am not sure about the seller, but i would stick to this list if it were me http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=11538 the last i knew FX armor is no longer made, it has been replaced by AM also i just noticed this is your first post. Welcome to the Fisd!, you should head over to the new members introduction page HERE and say hi :)there are lots of troopers here that are more than happy to lend you a hand...

sorry... no refunds

this is my 3rd version of the incinerator flamethrower (more accurate and extra detailed) i am starting my fourth now, hopefully my final prototype

here is an interview with the recasting larper on tosh.0 http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=311875&title=web-redemption-the-larper

i am locking this thread temporarily, (untill the higher ups come on) this discussion is leading towards the Garbage Compactor <_<

everything appears to be in order, Approved

don't feel alone , i am one of only a handful of 501st members in my region as well, the majority of my garrison is about 400 miles away the FISD is a good place for those of us that live on the outer rim

To make finding armor build and EIB threads easier to search for, specific tags have been added to the posts titles. You can search by the armor make by typing or copying and pasting the tags below into the search box. (you must include the brackets [] for the results to be filtered correctly) search tags for EIB posts [ATA] [AP] [AM] [FX] [TM] [RT] [sDS] [VT] [PT] [TE] [TMC] [CAP] [RB] [GF] [CFO] [RS] search tags for centurion posts [ATA*] [AP*] [AM*] [FX*] [TM*] [RT*] [sDS*] [VT*] [PT*] [TE*] [TMC*] [CAP*] [RB*] [GF*] [CFO*] [RS*] search tags for armor builds [*ATA] [*AP] [*AM] [*FX] [*TM] [*RT] [*SDS] [*VT] [*PT] [*TE] [*TMC] [*CAP] [*RB] [*GF] [*CFO] [*RS] notes: ( tmc= t/mc, rt= rt-mod, te= both te and te2, rb= rubies) My hope is to make it easier for prospective EIB applicants to search for references, and to help those building find build posts for the type of armor they are assembling. Also, a special thanks to Quebectrooper and TKBondservant for help with testing this out

these videos from daves garage have some good tips on fitting the thighs

if you have any questions just LMK

yes, as stated above, the AM helmet is not acceptable. as for the blaster, and belt, as long as you follow the EIB requirements, you will be fine also, it really dosn't matter where you purchased the blaster, if you simply provide the basic type (resin,hasbro,scratchbuild ext...)

yes that's great!, but optional. really the more a individual is willing to share about there setup will make it that much more valuable as a reference for future applicants

no, sorry i was referring to the ones under your arms..

looks great! i would move the straps connecting the back and chest plates up about 5-6" in the front so they are not as visible. and the belt could come up a bit in the front also...

as far as i know, there is no t/mc EIB to search for as of yet i have tagged all but 3 EIB's to date, they were not identifiable because photos were missing and there was no mention of the armor type in the users posts. also a few older posts have no photos so i tagged them in lowercase, the rest are capitalized.

i am implementing a few guidelines for posting your EIB submission that i hope will improve the quality of the program. 1: new formatting for EIB submission > please add the following information to your post using this formatting Armor= (your armor type) Helmet= (your helmet type) Blaster= (your blaster information)eg: resin,hasbro,scratchbuild ext... optional: feel free to add more information about your gear (see below) the more the better Height = Weight = Boots = Canvas belt = Hand Plates = Electronics= Neck Seal = Holster = adding this information will not effect your approval in any way, it is merely to make all EI post (past and present) a valuable point of reference for the community. as many of you know, when trying to achieve EI status that looking through the old EIB threads for EIB’s with the same type of armor you are making can be tricky, as it is not always listed in the title or post. i have gone through all of the EIB post and added this information to the end of the post title. i believe this will make it much easier to find examples and references of other EIB’s with similar armor types. the new formatting will look like this ( TK0123 requesting EI status [position #] [ARMOR TYPE] ). *pleas note that the position # and armor type will only be added after you are approved this also allows you to search all of the approved EIB post by armor type by typing the armor type you are looking for between brackets in the search box [armor type] look here for the list of armor search tags LINK i would also ask that all applicants to please have 501st trooper status before submitting your application. you can request 501st status HERE UPDATE: in addition i would ask that applicants post pictures directly on you submission post, please do not post links to photos. if you are unsure how to do this read the tutorial HERE or ask for assistance
