Rolf

Thanks for your kind words on him my friend . Now i only need your accurate belt, to hold it all together.

You got it right . I just add normal white velcro whit glue on, to the inside shin. And add black velcro whit out glue on, to hold the shin together (maybe i will add one more longer down, to close them up 100%). I just glue the strip on the right side of the shin, on the right leg/shin. And on the left side shin, on the left side leg/shin.

Here you go

Heres a few new pictures. I hope to have the helmet ready in a week or so, then its weathering time. Just a test fit, still need a few things here and there: Here on my doll: Next up, the helmet. Love the bumpy back and cap, so 70´a like cool: Cheers

Copy that. I will have one up, in a few days from now

The legs are closed both front, and back. Just like the bicep, and arms. Only the shins, are only closed on the front, but open on the back. On the back, the stripe shall one be glued on the same side shin you wear. The other one is free, and then the stripe overlap it when you wear it. I have velcro on the inside, and a black velcro whit out glue on to open and lock, to hold the shins good together. I don´t think i can get my foot through the shin, if i close the shin back side too.

I only add the strips on the fronts, not inside them. I just take off the paint tape, when the E6000 is dry. I will not paint the suit. I will add a little: NOVUS 2 fine scratch remover, and shine it a bit up. Plus when i add the hair spray on the weathering, it will gloss up even more. I don´t like to have paint on the body armor, and see it come more and more off when i troop in it. So no paint, just as it is. And as a sand trooper the i don´t need it to be high gloss either. Check my suit from last time under www.starwarshelmets.com Look under TE2, there you can see my suit non painted. I will do the same this time

Thanks bro, and here you go Now i only need to trim the unside whit my dremel round head, so they fit good. Next up: 1. Sand paper work. 2. Assemble/hand paint detail the helmet. 3. Weathering. Ready for duty

Ha ha thanks bro I cut 2,5 cm for the legs, and shins. 2 cm for the bicep. 1,5 cm for the arms.

Thanks bro. I have been working hard on him again today. Cheack it out BAM!!! It took a long time to match the parts 100% good together, but now they are good to go. I tape them up from the inside to hold the shape, before i E6000 glue the strips on. This time i did not use clamps, because they can´t reach the middle of the parts. I therefor used a strong paint tape (it leave no glue on the parts, after taken off). I will let the E6000 glue dry to tomorrow, before the tape comes off.

Copy that big time bro . I sold my last suits in december, and buy the DL suits there. But they are on delay, so i want back in armor now. I think i will get the DL suits, but not sure when...

Ha ha all most bro. But today i was slow, i used about 4 hours to make the bicep, arms, legs, shins to fit right, and glue the strips on whit E6000... New pictures up asap

2 for display, 2 for trooping. + my wife is also a 501st, so she use them too as she likes. + i will give one to my son, if he likes one, when he gets older. I love all the figures in the old saga, but i only collect ANH stunt stormtrooper suits, and sandtroopers. So i seems crazy, but some in my garrison have even more, just different ones, like tie, snow, scout, vader etc. Cheers

Copy that. This beauty will be a sandtrooper. But when i get my Dan Laws suits, i will get both a TK, and a TD. So then i will deploy your guys too there asap

Hi troops . I got this beauty from our very own master T, 3 days ago (got the helmet today). I trim the the body armor today, and it only took me 130 minuttes. I only used these two sharp dudes for the job: Here you go: Just 5 minuttes after i have trim the body armor, mr. postman came in whit the helmet too: Thanks for this beautiful suit T, and all the extra gear in the package (t-shirt, stickers, bows, cards, snacks, cash for imperial juice) See you in the cantina Master T, first drink on me bro : Cheers

EYE POPING TM, freaking beautiful . When many of us join 501st about 10 years ago, we did not have much to choose from: armors, sites, forums etc. Every thing have gone better and better year after year, and today we need real top class stuff to blow us off. But as have all have all ready said, you have done it again my friend. Not only the most screen accurate ANH body armor out there, but also now in the best plastic too. This is a piece of art, a A+ suit, from a A+ man.

Mine was to episode 1, in 1999. I saw a poster, where it says: Meet Darth Vader, and he´s stormtroopers. It was i a down town, DVD store. I went there, and talk whit them. I join 501st short after, whit my first suit. And been a member, ever since. I have have been a fan, since 1980. Where my dad, took me in to see ESB. Once a fan, all ways a fan. Cheers

Thanks Mark . It will be the new ANH Dan Laws stormtrooper, if its ready in 09. If not, i will go for a new TM, or TE2... Maybe use my Dan Laws helmet on it. Cheers mate.

Too cool Mark . I hope to have a new ANH storm trooper, ready for deployment in the end of 09.

Freaking cool armor . The Tm armor, are among the best out there. I have the hips version back then, i might need the ABS one, after i have seen your shots here. A BIG!!! congratulations, whit your piece of art here. You have done a A+ job on it. Cheers, and thanks for the look .

The TM is a piece of art, one of the most ANH accurate suits out there. Good work Pete

Congratulations! Joe . I will get my first kid, in about 1 weeks from now. My wife, and i can´t wait to final meet him. I guess, i also need a TM kid suit soon too .

I see it now too Thanks for the helping hands bro´s. By the way, a BIG!!! congratulation whit your new FISD title Billy. Cheers bro
