  1. Hahaha fantastic! shots bro, love it I did the same thing back then, but as a stormtrooper. Front plastic stormtrooper face, open in the back add on whit elastic. The body was just white cloth, whit black painted details on. Sadly i got no pics of me, all suit up back then. But i have this one, from around 1980
  2. Fantastic!!! armor, and pic Pete. Looks spot on ANH. Congrats from here
  3. Looks great so far, keep up the good work. Enjoy your build of this beauty. Cheers
  4. Love the rom-fx set up in your TM helmet, looks great! Your SDS E-11 looks great too. A few questions: Do you feel its as accurate as you have dream off, and a good buy. Whats its made off, is it solid/strong for a life time trooping etc. Troop on
  5. My two favorites are the TE2, and TM suit for sure. I would 100% go for one of them
  6. Your welcome buddy. I´m sure your sandy will turn out top cool. You got the TE2, Trooper1 pauldron, Crashmann pack kit etc, so it can´t go wrong. I have a new TE2 sandy kit on my way too, so i can´t wait to start up too here. Enjoy the build (my last TE2)
  7. Looking good Lou, can´t wait to see all suit up and done. And deploy the bro´s of sand, over at the MEPD asap. Enjoy your assemble of this beauty. TD high five from here
  8. I guess a ANH stunt Gino helmet would be the most accurate, if you could get one. Cheers
  9. Mark and Pete the magic duo have strike again, fantastic work bro´s. The helmet is a beauty, lots of assembled and paint skills all over. Congrats
  10. The guns looks ok sweet, but hard to tell from the bad pictures of them... <_<
  11. Thanks for your good and detail reply, very useful. If i ever decide to paint a mat hips suit, i guess i will use your method. I have done a few TE2 sandtrooper suits over time, and i do not paint them. I let them stay hips, add the weathering on the suit, and then the hair spray gloss it all up good. Here a few pictures, of my old TE2 sandy, whit no paint job on. I think it works out great whit out the paint job, and looks great, and i then have no fear of paint will crack off over a life time trooping either. Here you go: I have a TE2 TK on my way, and i´m thinking of doing the same thing on the TK suit as on my TD TE2 mat hips suits. I will then just add a few dark battle damage spots here and there, and make it a bit used in the look, and then again gloss it up whit a hair spray job. I might gloss it up a bit whit the Novus scratch remover before i do the weathering, and hair spray job on it. Cheers
  12. TM is a true bro to many of us, and a key person in this hobby. One of the best in the making armor world, and whit a spirit of gold at the same time. Thanks for all the info through the years mate, and your accurate armors. Cheers
  13. Congrats from here, whit your super duper top accurate ANH TK TM trooper suit. A+ from here
  14. Looking good trooper One question. Do you think your spray paint job are strong enough for a life time trooping, whit out any paint will crack off here and there. I´m asking because here in Denmark, all the spray paint i have been trying out, can easy be scratch off again I have try: Belton, Motip, montana, quick, nothing works. I have hand brush paint a few helmets whit humbrol, and model master, they are solid cool, but i would not like to hand brush a full suit vs. do a quick spray paint job. We don´t have Krylon, and Rustoleum here. Cheers
  15. Thanks I have been thinking about the same thing whit the shins, i will try to do them a bit more slim looking on my next one
  16. I might sell the TE2 helmet, because i have two new TE2 kits on my way. Pm me if you like to get it
  17. WOW!!! A+ skills all over Keith, i love it. There are some creative hands on you, looks spot on. Congrats from here, whit your movie accurate helmet in your collection. Cheers mate
  18. These beauty´s should go quick. I was lucky to get a sci-fire MG-15 from there limit (10 made, and might never again), if i did not have one, have take one of yours right away. Even i got the E-11, MG-15, DLT-19, T-21 from sci-fire, i´m thinking of getting more fire arms... Whats the price for your E-11/MG-15. Congrats whit this A+ product, and good luck whit the sale of them John. Cheers
  19. Looks freaking cool so far, keep up the good work trooper
  20. Looking good Rob Lots of creative skills all over.
  21. Even my big love are the Sandtoopers, and the MEPD forum. Its my plan to get a TK again this year, and deploy here on FISD. I join the 501st for 10 years ago, i have got TK suits as: FX, GF, AP, TM (all sold). TD suits as: GF, AP, TE2, TM. But whit out a TK suit for the last 4 years now, but wanna get one again. The plan is to get a TM this year, and join you there too. Troop on
  22. WOW! looking Ssweet!!! I guess there will be a new topic for these baby´s, would like to know more about how they was made. Many of the parts, like the gun grip looks spot on accurate nice.
  23. E6000 all the way I have used E6000 on: Gloss hips TM suit, Mat hips TE2 suits, abs TM suit, all worked perfect. I have used hot glue on: Abs AP suits, and it worked perfect too, but not as strong as the E6000 for sure. (the hot glue can heat up the hips/abs, and damage the suit. But mostly, only where the suits is pulled thin... But the gluing is mostly the assemble parts whit stripes, so no problem any way. But it will never be as strong, for life time trooping, as the E6000) I have used abs cement on my old abs FX suit, i remember it as strong as the E6000. But way more toxic, and harder to works whit/to control/and could therefor damage the gloss surface on the suit. And also not as flex, as the rubber a like E6000.
