  1. I wish! While I'm done with the major cutting, Most of the parts still need 1mm or so of trimming. Not my fault you stopped growing! Oh, and my helmet is 90% I'll post pictures when I finish it.
  2. Day 4 (13) last 1/4 of the forearm, and both calves.
  3. Not finish quite yet, and no I didn't do the sizing yet, but I think you are correct about it fitting as is.
  4. Day 3 (11 since starting) Biceps, Forearms [3/4] Chest, Ab, back, & Kidney plates
  5. That is amazing, This is going to be my target for my bucket!
  6. LadyInWhite: No progress since that sunday in Ventura, I've been doing school work, and I feel like if I work on the armor, I won't get any work done! TK Bondservnt 2392: I'll look into the ab buttons. Can you post a link for the tutorial on the plates? The CRL states: "Roughly pentagonal in shape, the hand plates are mounted securely over the back of the glove". I already have latex ones glued to chemical gloves, but I don't intend to wear the Chemical gloves for every troop. troopermaster: You are the only person it seems who knows what they are talking about when it comes to the 3 buttons, I knew they were for the belt but everyone seems to have an opinion!
  7. Day 2. Bells, Belt, Battery Pack loop, Most of the sniper plate, shoulder straps.
  8. Cut and sanded, Day 1. Also first coat on the inside of the bucket.
  9. Got the hand guard out without much grief. I am supposed to cut away the front and back correct?
  10. Just got my box today, missing a few things but I can still start.
  11. Anyone have experience with Plasti-Dip Spray? I have two cans I wanted to use on inside of my helmet before I cut it.
  12. You hit the nail on the head. I don't mind waiting. I fully understand that this is a hobby, things happen that are beyond control, etc, etc. They only thing I can't stand is just being left in the dark. Mark did reply to me this weekend, and I want to thank him for taking the time to clear everything up.
  13. Anyone heard from him? I ordered a full AP armor and some extras and payed him in full on April 4th 2012. ($991USD) Last email I got was April 24th 2012, saying two weeks until completion. I've sent him four emails since then, usually once a week, to no avail. His FISD inbox is full so I cannot PM him. I'm about a womp rats hop away from contacting Paypal for a refund. Any suggestions? Did I mess up paying in full?
  14. That is going to be harder selling Ice to an Eskimo! Only thing holding me is that I don't have the armor in hand! But Mark told me he would be done pulling yesterday, so hopefully I'll have it soon!
  15. I'll will do everything in my power to make it, hoping I have my armor 90% finished by that time too!
  16. This might be true for water balloons but that is completely opposite of what a latex condom is. How would a Latex Condom protect against pregnancy & STD's if it wasn't completely 100% Waterproof at a microscopic level. Give facts, not opinions next time. The main issue with using a condom is most of them are pre-lubricated, and even besides that they are thin and would probably tear on the button.
  17. Did you manage to stand him on his own!? or is it leaning on the table?
  18. Going to Downtown Disney to watch all the Avengers movies on the 3rd (The Avengers premiere at midnight) Then Disneyland on the 4th! Sometimes I don't mind living in expensive Southern California
  19. Can you post some pictures of this? this sounds like what I want to do.
  20. According to the EGW, by the battle of Yavin, clones shrank to about a third of the overall Stormtrooper Corps, Also I just realized the women (it presents her through her "memoirs") is quoted at 33 ABY, about three decades after Endor. But I found this on Wookieepedia, : "George Lucas, when composing background information for licensees in 1977, stated that females did exist in the Stormtrooper Corps, although there were few stationed on the Death Star. He suggested that they were numerous in other units. As a result, few female stormtroopers are depicted in Expanded Universe sources." The more you know!
  21. Are we assuming that there are no Female stormtroopers? I have The Essential Guide to Warfare, which says that there were, not a 50/50 ratio to males or anything crazy. Just 3 in a Legion of 8,192, so rare but not unheard of. Has anyone else read this book?
  22. Wow, I payed 65 for mine from Ladysewfor us with a 2 month turn around. *shrug* You live you learn I guess.
