Very cool Andrea

Looked like a great and rewarding troop, well done everyone. I was a bit concerned though how easily your weapon was taken from you, back to the Imperial Occupational and Safety briefing room for you trooper

Go on do it LOL. To answer your question you can use decals for traps and tube stripes but they need to appear as if hand painted, the only decals I have seen which look hand painted are the Dave M decals which trooperbay sells. You can hand paint if you have steady hands, I haven't so I just went for the Dave M's. You will still have to paint the small grey section on the ears. So if you have to order your s trim from trooperbay add on a set of Dave M decals and take the build to the next level or two LOL

Well done, looking good

+1 keep both for now. I like the look of the bottom in the first shot and the top in the second shot, could mix and match for now and wait and see if you get bitten by the building bug

From what I have seen most align the bottom, some choose to leave the top of the pieces out of alignment, I had a little missalignment at the top of my ATA thighs but I gave them a trim and then rolled over the edge and smoothed them with a small modeling iron.

Congrats Barry, was worth all that work, glad to see you got rid of the nag head lol. Now go out and enjoy your first troop as an official TK

Most that I have seen have just an end cap but when you try to blow up the Luke picture you can just see it has a weird shape to the bottom.

Ahhhh the excitement at the start, then the shear panic when you realise you have to cut it lol. Any plans of aiming for EIB or Centurion? I was persuaded at the start of my build to go straight for centurion level, would be so much easier than building to each of the levels one by one. Anyway whatever you decide good luck with the build hope it's a smooth one

It would be nice to get all these sizing and examples all on one thread, ie: kidney, belt corners, knee belt curve snd rivet position and so on would have made my build so much easier

The ice cream is in the other Legion elections are live thread http://www.whitearmo...__fromsearch__1 lol

Very nice indeed

Proof oh and yes I am a bit short for a stormtrooper lol http://i1251.photobucket.com/albums/hh552/glenmurry/Leia.jpg

Well I suppose he could turn a blind eye then if it will be 50/50 lol. Oh can you pm me details of your imperial officer, I'm just hunting down stuff at the moment, my next project. Just finishing a Leia costume for a friend, yes I sew lol

Congrats with approval, now what's all this Rebel stuff in your signature, the emperor will not be pleased lmao. Well done Jeremy

Congrats and welcome to the ranks Jeremy, just a shame little things aren't in the CRL's, hopefully this may be change in the future to stop any misunderstandings. Now isn't there another's thing you need to get approval for, oh and if it gets passed I believe separate AB buttons will not be allowed for Centurion so hurry up lol

Looking good so far

Voted

You are more than welcome after all it's troopers helping troopers, you may be able to pass on your knowledge to someone new one day, pay it forward

Looking good so far, sometimes you need a break before the push to the end, good luck with the rest of the build

Looks cool Jeremy, nice first troop

Looks the part, some nice work there

Warm, your funny 41 deg c for the last two days and 39 deg c today. Another great report and troop Ingrid, awesome turnout, well done to everyone involved

I had problems with my right bell on my ATA, I managed to put another snap futher forward on my shoulder straps which seemed to fix things. Why not just swap your bells over and see if that makes a difference then you will know if it is the bell or the straps.

About the same as mine, but when you are full kitted up I can't see you doing any weight lifting LOL
