  1. RT MOD is a good make of bucket. I think it would also make a good "Gloss Black" TK lid. Ya pic's still MIA too
  2. Wow I just got stuff from them, never saw the AFX Shield. (Now I have ta get moooore stuff!) Thank's Smitty! (oh ya, very sexy lid too!)
  3. With out knowing this gent at all, A good Senior NCO all way's trust and respect the report's /opinion of the troop's he lead's! Sent in my order/request just now. (and good pic's are worth 100 2LT's report's!)
  4. Ohhh man Why did ya have ta post this! If not for the armour I got this just maybe some thing I would think worth getting into a bidding war over!
  5. "Ahhhhhh F$%*!!!!!!!! I asked because it look's VERY close to my EU TK I'm working on! So it'll look like I'm playing "copy-cat"! Most of the time I try to do a mock-up as I work it out or do a pic and re-do stuff with it. I just can't find that TK pic!!!!!!! I'll try my lap-top but when I post the TK WIP of it trust me it's all mine, no outside influence about it. I just can't find my WIP draft!!!!!! Well just because of that this is one of my Clone WIP's
  6. Not to go too far off topic, but any here play the new "Wolfenstein" yet. I have to say the game graphics are a bit old but it's mostly ok.
  7. No but trust me...I'm working on it! (but yes my first app to the 501st will be ANH TK all the way!) oh and chick's luv gloss!
  8. Is that like between Clone and TK armour, as it started to go TK?

    Mail Call

    Oh ya, I forgot, got some mail today, my DoopyDoo E11 PVC kit, and that DL 44 kit they got. I was lookin at it and think'in Every trooper should have at least ONE shoulder holster! I'm going to use it with my EU trooper armour....(if my stuff ever come's!!!!! )
  10. If this is your very first build? Then Very good, and why can't he get EIB with the blaster he has now? You don't mean he has to get one T track done to get it? One silly track? (seem's a weee bit picky to me)
  11. Oh good god lad's! Can you say "Cut and Past"!!!!!!!!!!
  12. First, if they used any "real" guy's+armour in the updated SW yes, it was just older ROTJ stuff with some replacement part's. The "Seal" trooper's never did on screan stuff. What was done was one (and yes he may have been Seal) real US soldier was hired to do some "action" posses like run with weapon, hold/aim/fire with weapon, in general do some stand/sit/prone with rifle, as he was "filmed" for CGI stuff. You know when they glue the little white ball's at main point's on your body the get movement shot's for a program to play with. They CGI'ed a Clone Trooper over him, stuff like that. They made in the program big battle action shot's of the clone's fighting the Sep droid's
  13. Thank's I'll have a look, but my god, when you conver to Canadian, it's like just over $1,600! If I did have kid's it would be like "sell your first born" to have it!
  14. Well I do like the very "gloss" look it has. But 1) will it be...well cheap feeling to it. Like it some kid rap's your leg will it feel/look mushy. 2) The big thing is will it yellow. you say painting it is all but out so will UV brake down the white of the plastic. If I walk around for long I need a cane so lite armour is nice to me but not thin, so 1.5mm would be nicer I guess. How do you "strap" this together? How heat resistant is it/ Will some one smoking a cig near you outside set it off if he brushes against you? (will it burn E/Z?) And last the Big question.....How much??????????
  15. Any one here have the SDS full armour. And what is Capped abs?
  16. I hope you get to see this before you paint. I say if the leg' part's are ready to go the do Not paint the other part's. Have the lower blaster pack and knee plate painted first then fix them on. You may get paint build up in the corner's for one, and may get small paint crack's around the edge's. from wear. But it's up to you, and what work's for you as you build. I if I can paint part's first then fix them together. My .02 cent's. (remember Test Fit all part's befor any painting or glueing. Test fit the blaster pack before paint. The knee plate is better to work with but still test fit)
  17. An old first pull FX set would look far closer to what may have been "on set" in '76, then this .........stuff. It's all from top down home made....and I seen better one's! Yup, this guy's full of it. (but I do give him point's for having the gut's to post this)
  18. Hmmm well, X-Wing, and Dark Forces made me keep up-grading my old 486-DOS 6.what-ever, and the TIE Fighter, lot's and Lot's of TIE Fighter. I can still see/hear in my head that so cool sound/look of the E11 power-up. Then Dark2 came out and I liked to game over-all but the look of the game was like a bad acid trip!
  19. Yes, helps lot's . The Officer page had a O.R link and am looking at it know. Thanks.
  20. I sure hope to see a pic or two soon. The one part of the TK kit that's the hardest to get is the boot. "Daddy can need a new pair of shoe's too!
  21. Where you say/show your booboo's, I see that it's very small ones. Let the paint stand and dry total (that's paint take's up to a week or more with the more paint that the spray can's pump out. It cure's over day's from the top in, so it take's time. ) Then just do a little buff with 1500 grit wet/dry and then re-do.
  22. At the Tandy site, I typed "belt clips" in the find here box and got a page with 7 clip's listed. Two look close and one was even black. Which one???????
  23. Hey Troop's. Because I was feeling a bit off today and didn't pick up some flat black paint today, I spent some time trying to find any thing on up to date US vs Can Military rank equivalence. Any one know a link, ect on this?

    Boots

    Boots

    I can't remember but when I picked up my first "Paint-a-ble" boot, I got them from "Men's Work Wear World", near me. The boot was black but other then a small "lip" on the toe, very close to the TK boot. I did them up for TD armor, and got my Caboot's at the same time. The paint up boot's had a company tag with info on it. AND a web site. They made mostly riding boot's and work type boot's. They did do a woman's type of boot that was very close to tk type. But I just can't remember the name or find that #@$% tag! I'll keep looking for it and if I find it will ask about what they can and can't make.
