Sorry for not posting the pics, I can't find the little darned tube of Rub n buff >_< sorry folks. Either way, it's not that shiny, but it gives out the aspect of being sort of chromeish. I used it on bondo and the result wasn't that pleasing, perhaps on plastic/sintra (what most mando makers use) it's better. for my mando build i used these the effect (first couple of days, after a week or two it started to lose its shine)

I'll try to rub it on some left over plastic tomorrow so you can see how it looks

I wouldn't recommend it honestly, it's not that chrome-ish... you might want to try it though, it might work for you. i got it for like 5 or 3 USD at ebay

I also started my scout... all that's left for me to buy is the armor itself (MC) and a blaster. I've everything else... boots from darth vorhees, KS helmet (kit, i built it myself. not as accurate as MC, but i'm not aiming for lancer nor 501st this time i'll be letting my brother join the legion with this costume), trooperbay decals for it, and LSFU cummerbund and off-white pouches

Fantastic! I love the weathering!

Yup, same as me. I can't move with helmet much with the pauldron and shoulder pouch

You can also take everything off, put on a holster and an e-11 and go for ANH EI

you can also use http://starwarshelmets.com/ as a referene too

yup. john danter sells esb handplates, contact him for those

Your rail scope kinda looks like mine ----------

Noah, what type of snaps are you using? If you're using Tandy leather snaps that shoudn't happen, IF however, you're using tandy leather snaps i'll just be quiet

You're an amazing person kirby, always trooping for great causes! God bless, friend.

this is very sexy and awesome! pardon my silly question, but I don't know much about screen accuracy but didn't luke's chestplate had NO return edge at the front? or am I wrong?

if my butt plate sits too low i get the tail look and i HATE it for some reason lol... but yeah, take a picture of how it looks and submit. It should be an easy pass

I can wear glasses fine and troop at the same time

nope, I edited it and the text i added won't show up. but the message says that I edited it. here's what i tried to quote..

Maybe I need to clear my cache, maybe that'll work. Also, when try to edit my post the text I want to edit won't appear, meaning it's all empty. I have to click on full editor so i can see what i want to edit.. let me see if i can show you what i mean too

Am I the only one that suffers from this?

Every time I click on Reply to this post, I get a double quote... let me show you all what I mean

That was exactly what I was looking for...

ATA is pretty much spot on. RT mod is slightly whiter that AM (AM is kinda yellowish) this is my ATA ESB helmet with my old AM chest under sunlight. You can see it's almost the same color. (I use an RT mod chest now and ATA backplate) ------------- Hope this helps

Nice! And BTW, Loving the guitar too!

this should be pinned... and there should be a section on this forum that shows all the varieties of armor that people should avoid

Get a green armor!
