I'm trying to get my armor as dinged up as troopermasters

I know the holster for the ESB trooper go's on the other side, thats why i will need another belt i just rivited this one as soon as i get payed i will have to pick up some of your hand guards can i have some free armor to go with it Thank god i was worryed i would be on the deathstar more troopers die there every year then on anyother battlefield in the galaxy lol

Here are some shots of my ESB bucket on my armor i think it comes off well but let me know what you guys think. All i need is some ESB hand armor from TM and i can run around as an ESB trooper... wait i'll need a new belt and a right hand holster LOL

are you aiming for the luke look with the trooper belt on? and why no holster? great work btw

I have been doing alot of paint but 2 of my buckets have decals

too ture everyone is going ANH now.... i was setting my sites on ESB next tho the next tk bucket i do will be a ROTJ

That sucks.

I use metal hooks rivited to my detonator

Well today i got lucky and found some extra Accurate brow trim in one of my old boxes and replaced what i had on it befor and it has made a world of difference. I made the woman wear it LOL

hey i am here everyday i just dont post that much

you send me the pieces and i'll give it a shot lol

Got some time in on my ESB repainted the teeth and opend up the eyes more, still on the hunt for better brow trim, also Polish the hell out of it to give it a bit of a gloss but still a dirty look to it.

Hey Javamonkey longtime no see I have been reading all about your findings and cant wait to get my hands on your next great project It figures you drop a bomb like this right when i was going to try and mod an ANH helmet in to an ROTJ

All and all it's fine by me bout time we have more TD's that look like TD's I cant wait to get my sandtrooper Rolling this year and i hope to have my ANH Vader Ready also ::crosses fingers::

If it's in the flim i dont see it as a problem.

Thanks TM for the pics i was waiting forever for you to e-mail them to me I will gett on cutting open the eyes even more, also when i painted the cracking on the tube of the ESB trooper i was doing it from memoire My GF was on my comp so i couldnt check the picture to make sure i wasnt over doing it when i got a chance to Give it a look over it was to late and i had over done it and made the weathing way to big I would to take some better shots of this helmet to show off all the work i put into it, But it's always hard to show off when the troopermaster has his helmet posted LOL If not for TM odds are i would have done a idealised ESB trooper. It was my frist shot at weathering a helmet i think i did ok but i'm not to over all pleased with the outcome i will just have to try harder next time If anyone would like a walk threw on how to do this i say ask TM he's the man i bug the hell out of when ever i have a trooper question he's lucky i dont have his phone number

Well after little over a week so of working on this and with alot of great Tips from TM I am close to done with my ESB trooper bucket. Tell me what you guys think? Not 100% sure but i may need to cut the eyes down some more to match the ESB trooper better. But i dont want to over cut

Canvas isnt bad heres what my belt looks like... still need to rivit my Holster on but it holds up the E-11 pretty well it weights about 2 to 3 pounds

AP is a copy of the GF witch came from TE. so AP is 4th gen armor Movie used 1st TE 2nd GF 3rd AP 4th

to bad i already learned this a while ago and a few other things But TM had made many soild poitns in that thread as always for he is the trooper master LOL

I'd say if you can upgrade your amor go for it, if your gonna go go all the way I'd say go T.E the T.E helmet is far bigger then an AP helmet. <_< and on the subject of ESB troopers i am working on a ESB helmet.

I want me a pro kit. but i do have my eye on a V for Vendetta mask

KOTOR i hope there is a 3rd one due out soon and battle front 1&2... but KOTOR above all it gave birth to my favorite star wars character Revan

that pretty much sum's it up I feel down the stairs in my hero helmet once i learned 2 things that day bubble lenses are hard as hell to see threw and Troopers and stairs dont mix

I got it from a guy over in germany i'm not sure if it's disconuted it's a great start, i never had time to cut it up since taking on other projects. But now since theres somthing better theres no point in working on it again I'll make it a side arm for my TD project.
