  1. Real picture !!! (the first one was a CG)

     

    EpVII-Stormtrooper-Helmet.jpg

     

    I think it's a cool design for the evolution of the classic Stormtrooper.

     

    I'm agree, maybe it's look like a little more to a motorbike helmet, but I like this helmet (more than the "angry duck" ) !

  2. Well, the time has passed and I have sold my first SDS armor...
     
    For another one !
     
    Not because I love this armor, but I had the opportunity to obtain this second one for a very interesting price...
     
    But I have tried to obtain a more ANH screen-accurate version this time (even if it's not easy with the SDS OS kit ^^).
     
    So this is the modifications that I have made for the upgrade :
     
    General informations
     
    Armor = Original Stormtrooper (reworked)
    Helmet = Original Stormtrooper (reworked and totally repainted)
    Blaster = E-11 full resin kit (Doopydoo's)
    Boots = TKBoots
    Canvas Belt = Home made
    Inner Drop Boxes = Original Stormtrooper
    Hand Plates = Sonnenschein (FISD)
    Neck Seal = Unknown (bought as second hand)
    Holster = Home made
    TD Clips = Magikpimboli (501 FR)
    Strapping brackets = Mr. No Stripes (FISD)
    Optional removable "Simon's holster" = Home made
     
    Strapping of the torso under construction

    The helmet was originally destined to be a "Mr no stripes" (see previous posts on this page), but finally I have added the blue stripes.

    Of course the "Original Stormtrooper" armors are absolutely not the most accurate armors, but with a little work, they can become better ^^

  3. I have also built a "no stripes", and even if it's really a mistake, it's a pitty that it can't be approve because it's became a popular Trooper years after years ^^

     

    Maybe a reflection can be made about this specific character due to his popularity and his legitimity (appearences in the movie, the blister of the toy and many pictures) ?
