  3. Star Wars Battlefront: Phase 0 Darktrooper

    This brings back memories!

    If you offered this as a kit sometime in the future, you could consider me a buyer.

    Hey Solids cool man I'm going to be vac forming everything so e I'd bhappy to sort out a kit for you. Yeah I thought it was one of the more successful stormtrooper variants out there. I think the captured a good look; still stormtroopery enough to look like a stormtrooper but something new. Ok mate be in touch when I've got a prototype out

    Cheers

    Hi there! 

    I am brand new here. I was looking at the 501st Approved Costume Reference Library and there is a Legacy Era Female on there, is this the same one? There was a much earlier comment about how this would never get approved. Did it? It's really amazing. Like blowing my mind, amazing. [/size]

    Hey there thanks! No it's based off the Jes statute and to a smaller degree the action figure. But it's basically my take on what female stormtrooper armour might look like in the OT era. There are a few kits out there now but I don't think it'll ever get approval cheers!

    Helmet! Here's a first go at the helmet. There's no real template to follow here other than "make it look like a tk" So I'm pretty happy with the results. This one was a bit franken-bucket at the back but I have fixed that. Also I think the face plate could be a bit lower and flatter to the bucket.

     

    I really like the scoops they do what I wanted them to: help keep the side tubes big enough and provide a more pinched look to the face. The hardest part I found now is getting a decent picture of what I'm looking at! :)

     

    C and C welcome as always

    The armor definitely looks good. I like how it appears functional and doesn't go for the tired trope of trying to over-sexualize female armor.

     

    The only thing I see an issue with, from a functionality standpoint, is the boots, which are just asking for a twisted ankle if you ever had to engage Rebel scum in a firefight.

    yeah it's a tricky one. The boots add a lot of height which helps elongate the figure but yeah if you were running around shooting at rebels you'd probably want something flatter! :)

    :jc_doublethumbup:   So happy to see the female geekdom explode.  So much more cool stuff for women now!  My wife can not only be involved, but WANTS to be involved.  So much fun for the future.

    Yeah that's cool. My wife is not big SW fan or costumer but really enjoyed wearing the prototype suit I made, it was a lot of fun :)

    Well hellooooo ladies!  :salute:   

     

    Armor looks good!  I'd love to run into these troopers at a Con!

    ha ha thanks Raintrooper. I'm hoping to have a couple of troopers wearing these at our next convention. Hopefully there'll be lots of salutes :)

     

    Thanks for sharing! Always cool to see what people are doing and obviously the ladies :-)

    Cheers Slangen I was really happy the way the armour fit everyone, especially given that it's all rough trimmed. More pics soonish!
