I can't get to my camera but mine are velcroed to the back of my chest piece, I glued a couple of small angled abs under them so they don't slip down. Will try get a photo later for you.

Congrats and welcome to the ranks

Congrats trooper and welcome to the ranks

Some clear reticulation hose from the water container up inside your neck seal then up into your bucket should work

Congrats and welcome to the ranks

Looking forward to the build

Just do a search, there are many ways of making brown boots white . There's a nice How To in March 2013 newsletter here

Looking forward to the build

Congrats Gaz, good luck with the position

Wishing everyone a happy, safe and prosperous New Year

Happy festive season

Awesome

Seasons greetings everyone, oh why oh why did my laptop die, hope there's something good in the Boxing Day sales All the best for 2014

Same here, bottom pointing up, nice fresh cool air makes trooping so much more enjoyable

Love seeing brown boxes ariving, good luck with the build

Thanks everyone, I'm honoured to be involved with such a great team of people

While I sit back and reminisce over the past year I think about what I have achieved, 6 costume builds, 8 blasters, several props, helping others with their builds and to top it all off the recent awards presented to me. I've met a lot of people on the way, brought smiles to many faces and made some close friends. All of which would not have been possible if I had not been given that first push to go to Supa Nova and meet the 501'st, thank you Liz for getting me back into the world again. What's next? I'm not sure, those that know me will just say "more building" lol Thanks to all of you who made me feel welcome and guided me on my way. Here's to many more years in the 501st />

Congrats trooper welcome to the ranks

You would have t trim the fromts first then apply the 20 - 25mm cover strip, then apply what ever size cover strip you need for the rear

Once you get into a squad and look at everyones armor you tend to learn a few differences, I find looking at photo's of a troop I can now pick out who's who and what they are wearing. Even a friend that didn't know a lot about stromtroopers can now pick me out of a crowd of ten TK's

Congrats trooper

My forearms where both different I applied a little heat and squashed one of them to get the same round appearance, coming along nicely. Just remember research is the key to building armor, if your not sure then don't cut

Coming along nicely

That is correct, have a look here
