  3. ddays 1.5mm TM ANH Hero (mostly complete)

    in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance

    Posted

    Very nice! Such a clean build! Wish I could get some TM armour one day :P

     

    One small criticism, or more of a question really.... but is there meant to be that much gap between your biceps and forearms? I can see that you have them strapped together, but I was under the impression that those 2 pieces 'butted up' against each other? correct me if I am wrong, since I don't know much about the hero suits... but thought I'd throw it out there anyway :)

  6. General Help - Buying Pre-Made Armor

    I agree with what everyone else has said. This hoppy just isn't cheap, but the time and money that we put into our suits really shows.

     

    I'd save up and get yourself a proper armour kit for next year... but in the meantime, if you're rally desperate, you could always to a cardboard job :P

     

    but when it comes down to it,

     

    you can look like this now

    but the cardboard one could be good for a bit of fun :P

  10. What kind of things damage armour?

    At first I was very nervous about how much punishment the armour can take, but as time has gone on I have learned that they are more durable than you'd expect. When your armour 'breaks' most of the time it is the glue failing or something similar, not the actual armour. Anyway, if you want to be truly screen accurate you can hold yourself together with gaffa tape ;)(don't take any notice to that last sentence ;))

     

    I can do this, and nothing popped off or cracked!

     

     

     

    also good for dewback taming :jc_doublethumbup:

     

     

  18. HOW TO: Install Cap Rivets (Video)

    in Tutorials, Tips and HOWTOs

    Posted

    Since I heard a few people are being confused with what to do with the cap rivets that I supply here http://www.whitearmo...opic=19041&st=0

     

    I thought I'd do up a little video showing you how to do it. If there is anything unclear, just post up and I'll try to answer it as best I can! :smiley-sw013:

     

     

     

    This is the side of the rivet that you see from outside the armour

    This side is on the inside of your armour (can't be seen)

  20. Acting

    in Off Topic

    Once in a while, depending on the person and situation... I do this occasionally when the person IN the picture seems reluctant (mostly adults, teens), and the person taking the picture is kind of pushing them. It gives the picture-taker a bit of a reward for their efforts. However, it can be kind of "out of character" for an on-duty TK.

     

    Of course :) Only in moderation and the correct circumstances

  21. screen accuracy?

    in Hard Armor (General Discussion)

    Posted

    Honestly though why isn't there a category for those that go above and beyond to make it perfect? No gaps, no seams, no rivets anyone uses, no extra buttons? I'm all about the screen accurate but in the end what are you to the general public...a stormtrooper right! I guess I'm ranting a little but look at the TX CRL just as an example. Those guys "can" take direct blaster fire yet a jodhpur or Chelsea style boot is required with elastic webbing at the ankle. Sorry but if you can "cloak" yourself I don't think the Achilles heal of an elastic ankle would have been overlooked on part of the empire. I know it's a mix of real world and the novels/comics but sheesh!

     

    I wishyou all the best for you Tk build, but what youhave described here sounds very much like a clonetrooper.... They are seamless and 'perfect' inthe sense they were created in CG and no actual suits exst ;)
