Tread Speeder, at last something we can ride As seen at celebration

I have a couple of costumes also (cough cough) , although I find myself mostly wearing my ANH Stunt or First Order Stormtrooper, my ANH Stunt being my first costume and one the public recognise the most (ok there's some black guy some like to see) . Although I have been involved in other detachments FISD has become home, there are always brothers and sisters ready to lend a hand and offer guidance and support when needed, I suppose you could call FISD a family, (occasionally there's some yelling) but mostly we all get along. Hope you enjoy your time here, keep an eye out for upcoming merchandise and lend a hand to new recruits, if you find you want to get involved more perhaps become and Imperial Attaché, more info here:

Have a read through this thread https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/16415-weather-stripping-for-edge/

Congratulations trooper and welcome to the Centurion ranks

Great work on those tubes and teeth

I went off this thread website --------------there are examples of different version on this page------------ I also packed mine with high density foam

I'd suggest bringing up your ab section first and then check again what room if any there is. When you compare to this there's probably half the distance from ab plate to chest compared to yours. Some have very minimal gap between, but most appear to have issues with the cod hitting thighs

Best attitude, easier to trim off than to add back on. Many of us find once we start trooping that areas can catch, rub and cause "armor bits" but I'm sure you'll find that out in the not too distant future

Congratulations and well done trooper, great work.

Looking great, nice work

Advanced Tactics Awards EIB - The March To 1000 Merchandise & Branding Officer Public Relations Follow FISD It is sad news that we report the loss of another legion member, Denio Caerio (DZ-14086) of the Novo Império 501st Legion passed away On the 25th of July, 2019, . Forever smiling and playful, Denio brightened the day for everyone. He was especially focused on cheering patients in hospitals by organizing costumed troops. So strong was his will to help offers that few even realized Denion was ill himself. He is survived by his partner Mary Mutz (CT-29563.) Our condolences go out to his family and friends. "Buckets Off" Greetings Troopers, It's August already and the year is flying by! This month on FISD saw the addition of the newest trading card run, of which the first cards are at the printers now. We also have gotten approved and are kicking off several new coin runs, including the first ever FISD PRIDE celebratory coin, and our newest iteration of gold Expert Infantry coins! Check our Merchandise entry below for more info and links to those runs. As I spend this evening strapping down large props to a trailer for this weekends convention, it gives me plenty of time to reflect on just how amazing of an organization the 501st is and everyone that helps make it possible; in the legion, in the garrisons, and in the detachments. So many give so much of their time and energy to making these things function and flow on FISD, from Brien organizing and championing our detachment merch, to our deployment officers Daniel, Sha Sha, and Mike tirelessly helping us on our March to 1,000, to all of our web masters keeping our systems running, COGs keeping our boards clean and managed, and all of our PR Officers keeping people in the loop (especially Glen for making the newsletter happen every month!). The Attache's helping troopers daily on the forums and at armor parties, and the stormtroopers out there being bad guys doing good. You all rock, and without all of you, the 501st and FISD would not be the amazing costuming group it is today. As we look forward to the rest of 2019 and beyond, we're always on the look out for more folks that want to take a more active role in FISD. If you have ideas or skills you think FISD could utilize (or even just an enthusiasm and desire to help out) please feel encouraged to reach out to me!

This section will allow future Troopers the opportunity to submit photos of their completed build to be reviewed by the Staff, Imperial Attaches and others in preparation for forwarding it to their GML for approval. Any and all advice/suggestions given will be specific, constructive, helpful and respectful. Please note that this program will NOT take the place of your local GML, as Detachments are not chartered for costume approval and can not override a GMLs decision, but is instead a peer review program designed to help you look your best and offer guidance and positive feedback. You will have the opportunity to ask questions about your completed armor, weapons (if applicable), accessories, etc. and get accurate information from the experts here at the FISD.. the definitive home of TKs worldwide.

The Fire Team program is completely optional, and is intended to help form a common identity and spirit of camaraderie among 501st Legion stormtroopers in the same geographic area/garrison that troop together. Fire Teams are not officially recognized by the 501st Legion nor the FISD, although they will be able to access a Fire Team sub-forum on the detachment website. Because Fire Teams are unofficial groups, they cannot have any 501st or FISD markings, including 501st Legion, 501st, Legion logos, Vader's Fist etc. on their branding or logos. However, Teams will be allowed to use any unique markings at informal events provided they follow these guidelines. Guidelines No 501st or FISD markings. Period. Any active Legion member with a valid stormtrooper costume in the specified geographic area can join. The Team can create a name, logo, backstory, etc. for itself (names usually contain Fire Team, though this isn't required). A list of each Team (with their specific "Teams Name") with a current list their members will be kept in the Fire Team sub-forum on the Detachment website. A Team member must troop at least twice per year to maintain status as a member. Two or more Team members must troop together once per year to keep the group active. Merchandising Again, no 501st or FISD markings. Merchandising will only be limited by the imagination of the Fire Team. Any merchandising should be submitted to the detachment, or through proper Legion channels. A master list of all Fire Team merchandise (with photos) will be posted in the Fire Team sub-forum. If any of these guidelines are violated, the group will be disbanded. Here is a link to the Fire Team area: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/130-fire-team-area/ 501st membership is needed to view this area. This is a great program that is strictly just for fun and it also allows fellow TK's get to know each other better. I would love to help any Garrison/area get a Fire Team started, just let me know what I can do to help. If you would like to register a Fire Team here is the link In other business, just a reminder, if you have an addition, removal or any other change in you Fire Team's status, send me a PM here and I'll get you all squared away. Who would have thought when this program started it would progress so well that we now see our 50th Fire Team, congratulations to Southern California Garrison (Southern California) - Fire Team Heavy Hitters.

At certain times of the year this embargo is lifted, generally around Blu-Ray / movie releases, May 4th and Force Friday, the recent correspondence from LFL outlines the lift of the embargo: "While there is currently a retail moratorium on character appearances in effect, it is being lifted during the following days:Oct 1-31 -- ok to appear at schools, libraries and book stores for Star Wars ReadsOctober 4-6 -- ok to appear at any retailers offering the new SW-related merchandise for Triple Force FridayDec 1-31 -- ok to appear at retailers selling SW-related merchandise for the holiday seasonDec 19-26 -- ok to appear at theaters showing The Rise of SkywalkerAll fans, costumed or otherwise, can participate with venues of their choice within these windows with the restriction that costumed appearances must not be used in the advertising for the event. Although these appearances will be treated like an open invite, we’ll leave it to the fan groups to independently organize around these events as they see fit. LFL will not need to approve or coordinate these. Please note that retail locations should not include restaurants, bars, or venues with no apparent reason to feature Star Wars characters. In the coming weeks and months, we may send out a list of ‘preferred' retailers from certain regions who would welcome fans to participate at their venues within these event windows, but you are all still welcome to make plans with appropriate retailers or venue hosts of your choice regardless of whether or not they appear on the list.Thanks everyone, and thanks for all you do!" "Please note that retail locations should not include restaurants, bars, or venues with no apparent reason to feature Star Wars characters. If the retail location does not stock Star Wars products you should NOT be attending." *REMEMBER* Always follow your garrison/squad's guidelines when in comes to organising Disney/LFL promotional troops, only command staff can deal direct with LFL. Serve proudly, ladies and gentlemen, and as Tim (Dark CMF) says: "Keep doing what it is that got you here"! Are you an approved TK that spends more time on the boards than the average Trooper? Do you enjoy using your knowledge to help out future and existing Troopers? If so, we would like to invite you to join the Imperial Attaché program! Members of the I.A. team are chosen to help out not only those here on the boards, but on a local level as well. Our aim is to have at least one in each and every Garrison, Squad and Outpost in the entire legion to be the eyes and ears of the FISD on a local level. A suggested level of EIB or above is preferred, as part of the duties include assisting those aiming for levels 2 and 3, but is not a requirement. Being active on the boards on a regular basis , welcoming new members and helping out where you can is, though. Some of the benefits: 1. Access to exclusive Attaché merch., including patches, etc. 2. Having the Imperial Attaché title under your name. 3. Being a part of the team that welcomes new and prospective members of the FISD. 4. Being the "go-to" person in your Garrison, Squad or Outpost. 5. Exclusive access to the Attaché HQ area, Imperial Propaganda Machine (newsletter) and merchandise discussions. We are currently in need of Attaches in many units, especially International Garrisons/Squads and Outposts. For more information on this program, please head here and if you should have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me at any time.

If you are in the process of building your TK armor, you probably are referencing many build threads or your favorite. Did you ever wonder if we had diagrams with a little more detail? Look no further! Reference the Billgrams! That is all for now! Have an awesome August! and make sure you use that sunscreen at the beach troopers! With Unquestioned Loyalty Preston Christman TK-91488 "Pretzel" PRO Lead - Attaché Ambassador So what exactly are EIB (Expert Infantry Badge) and Centurion levels? These programs were designed for those who choose to take their armor above and beyond the minimum requirements for basic 501st Legion approval. It gives you the chance to show a level of dedication and pride that takes your armor closer to being as "screen accurate" as possible, without as much extra work as you may realize! It also works on giving a better look to the Legion as an entity, and you can bet others will take notice of your hard work. The 501st has a list of detailed requirements for Basic approval, (level 1), EIB, (level 2) and Centurion, (level 3) which can be found here in the Costume Reference Library, (CRL) http://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:FISD_CRL Here are a few of the questions people may be wondering about: 1. "I am a (tall/short/heavy/thin) Trooper. Can I still apply? Of course! These programs are open and encouraged for all sizes of TKs, as long as the costume is correct and meets the guidelines. There are many specific build tutorials to every option, as well as a vast network of fellow TKs on the FISD to help you out and offer suggestions. 2. "How much extra will I have to pay for extra items"? The cost is actually quite reasonable, considering the few extra supplies you will need, which are listed in the requirements area. While it may run you a little more to implement these additions to your costume, they will go a long way to improving accuracy. All needed items can be found for sale on this thread: https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/16-ongoing-sales-project-orders/ While blasters are not required for basic approval, for EIB and Centurion levels they are, and may need upgrades (also listed in the CRL). 3. "I haven't even got my kit yet, is it too early to start planning"? Actually, aiming for Centurion is easiest to do right out of the box. 4. "I have my basic TK approval, can I still get in these programs"? In a word... absolutely! 5. "Are there any "perks" to this extra work and cost"? Besides knowing that you have a great looking set of armor, the 501st and FISD believes you should be deservedly recognized for your achievement(s), and allows you to wear the appropriate embroidered "rocker" badge of rank (available for a very minimum cost) on your shirt, helmet bag, etc., as well as rank decals to put on your armor bin. You will also have access to select "challenge coin" runs, receive (free) a cool certificate for your new rank, and have your title posted below your name in your FISD signature. Plus, once you reach these levels, you will have the extra knowledge to help out those who are looking to apply as well. 6. "Is it hard to apply, and what happens then"? After basic approval, all you do is make sure your armor is up to the standards set forth in the CRL, post a thread with the required photos in the appropriate area (see below), and wait a bit for the D.O.s (Deployment Officers) to address it. (Hint: Studying other people's threads before you submit can be a GREAT help). These are also listed on the main page of the FISD site. While waiting for approval, you will get some comments from others who will offer suggestions and constructive advice to help you out. If you should need any changes, the DOs will let you know, so you can adjust accordingly. Don't be dismayed if you do need changes... it's all for your benefit! After you are approved for EIB, then you can submit for Centurion. EIB https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/19-request-expert-infantryman-status/ Centurion https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/72-request-centurion-status/ Just remember that the FISD is here to help you every step of the way with whatever other questions you may have, but if you can't seem to find what you are looking for in your research, just ask away here on the forum. This area lists all those who have gone above and beyond basic approval toward screen accuracy. FOR July - August the 1st Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment would like to congratulate: Expert Infantry Badge Award: Simon "simorph" TK 16566 EIB 924 Tuomus. "Wyrkk" TK 20037 EIB 925 Andrew "Shookumshot" TK 76271 EIB 926 James "TK64287" TK 64287 EIB 927 Jesús. "TxuTxi" TK 25280 EIB 928 GREAT job on your approval, now on to Level 3! Request your free EIB certificate here Centurion Badge Award: Ardeshir "equuspolo" TK 42128 Centurion 439 Outstanding job on reaching Centurion, Troopers! Request your free Centurion certificate here If you see any of these Troopers around your Garrison or Squad, be sure to congratulate them! As many of you are aware, the FISD is currently in our March to 1000 program. Our goal is to reach the one thousand mark of Troopers who have earned their Expert Infantry Badge, and although we are well on our way to this goal and have just reached the 928 mark! The amount of approved submissions is increasing (over 80 this year alone) thanks to the dedication of those willing to go the "extra mile" toward screen accuracy. Here is a brief description of EIB as written by Paul (Daetrin), our founder: "Expert Infantryman status is not required for members of this detachment. It should be viewed as an optional set of requirements for those who wish to take the accuracy of their costumes to the next level, and be recognized accordingly. We're a costuming club - think of it as an award for costuming excellence and you get the picture. The requirements will not replace or supersede 501st standards, but only serve as an inspiration for the level of accuracy that can be achieved. The standards are meant to be high but achievable..." Besides the added pride you will have in your armor, those reaching this level can purchase exclusive EIB gear (patches, decals, coins etc.) and get a free certificate for your accomplishment. If you are interested or would like more information about the program head here that will help. You can also contact myself "Pretzel" or any Imperial Attaché, and we will be more than happy to assist you! Greetings, troopers! August is jam-packed with merchandise news. First off - gold EIB coins are here! If you have reached EIB (Level 2) status and do not have a gold coin, head here and claim yours today (supplies are very limited!): The silver coins are currently shipping, so be on the lookout if you haven't received yours yet. Second - Pride coins are here! These are open to all active 501st members and can be purchased here: Third - Racing Shirts are coming! We're going to be offering BOTH regular and First Order versions and for the first time ever, the option to have Expert Infantry, Centurion, or Attache rockers printed directly on the shirt! Head to the interest list located here and let us know how many you want: (Note: Racing Shirts should be available for ordering in the September-October timeframe. This is merely to express your interest.) Lastly, attaché rockers are back! These are open to all active Imperial Attachés: That's it for August... see you next month!

Correct, night time tablets kicked in and brain working at lower capacity

If you mean Icomm I've had one for 7 years and still going strong, I did have to add an external battery though as the internal died and couldn't purchase them locally, an external 3.2V AA rechargeable battery does the trick. You use the Icomm with and Aker amp 10w 1506 usually found on ebay for around $35. I've heard mixed reviews on the Tramp but I think it comes down to the initial setup on your phone.

Once ready we headed out to entertain the crowds. We trooped, entertained, kicked balls and were generally awesome. We hung around the Bendigo Bank area for most of the morning having photos with younglings and their parental Beings and one bank employed oinker. After a drink we headed back out and went for a wander around the the outskirts of the fair and collected a few more credits from the local inhabitants we headed back to the banking clan's area for a few more photos and at 2pm we called it and headed back to dekit. It was a great day with perfect trooping weather. Photos to be added.

Came out a treat, nice work.

Nice work trooper, first of your images are a little small and it's hard to zoom in to see some details, you may want to add some higher resolution images. There are a couple of things you could fine tune: You have a large gap between the top of the thighs and cod, I would try to bring your ab/cod section down a little or move your thighs and also your shins upwards, some padding in the bottom of the shin will help them sit higher. Shoulder bells should come in more at the top and can see strapping appears loose in the first image. You could use a little heat on the shin closures, they are sticking out a little. Also your right thigh back cover strip appears angled? You have gone a little too far with trimming between some of the teeth, you may at some stage add some abs paste behind and close these gaps. The black line on the ear bump is a little thin Belt is sitting a little high on the back Drop boxes should align with the end of the plastic belt section in some images they don't appear too, you may want to add a little E6000 to the straps to help them stay in position Good luck with approval.

I normally use 4 or 5 mm but I've seen 6mm used before With the teeth area try not to get paint on the gums, if you do you can easily remove with a toothpick. From the CRL: Frown is painted gray and does not leave the teeth area.

Just an FYI you only need to show the blaster mounted on your thigh holster, you don't need a fully kitted up photo of it in action

Nice work trooper, a couple of things you could adjust to make it look really awesome. Shoulder bells could be lifted to match the yoke, you can add tabs which will help this Your TD has a large gap and some strapping/fabric can be seen from the side, appears it may be sitting on your belt. Butt plate is also being pushed backwards, not sure if you can adjust strapping to bring it further in. Also the holster needs to be functional so if it is you will need to provide photo of it in use, from the CRL: Holster must be usable. A few other photos may be needed: Both sides with arms up Neck seal Interior strapping Good luck with approval

You can also have 9 to 16 per side, form the CRL: Tube stripes are medium blue, numbering between 9 and 16 per side with the curve bends extending backwards

Nice work, A couple of things to really make you look the part: You could add some shoulder tabs to keep your shoulder bells sitting at the same height of your yoke Also you have quite a large gap on the outside of your shin You could also add some foam on the insides of your shins to help them align with the thighs, they are a little offset as you can see, not aligning with knee armor or thighs below You are also showing big gap behind the TD plate. Also butt plate is angled backwards, not sure if you could use some tighter strapping to help pull it in. Also from the chest to yoke For L2 you also need the correct style cod section (note image in the CRL is TFA): TLJ correct cod is required. Notice they are a lot straighter on the sides in the below image Stellar work, good luck with approval.

Just watch you don't go on to the gums, CRL: Frown is painted gray and does not leave the teeth area. A couple of tips: If you have excess paint you can remove with tooth picks, works really well. If you paint the tube stripes and use a template use white paint first, will fill any gaps in case of bleeding. For black lines if they aren't very straight a cheat is to use a permanent black marker Looking forward to the progress.

Looking forward to the progress. If you are having issues adding images a lot of us use an online image host Imgur, once uploaded you can copy and paste the image directly into your post (or copy the direct link depending on how you are posting, mobile/computer) Good luck

Congratulations trooper and welcome to the EI ranks
