  1. Looks fine for basic but if you did a few more mods be ok for EIB. As I found I needed a better blaster for Centurion and my pipe build was a rewarding experience. Nice work, now add a bit of weathering and seal it with a matt or satin clear to stop the paint being rubbed through.
  2. I have two on my wall cross ways hooked up to transformers and a remote switch, looks pretty good when you flick the switch on, I like the glow
  3. I wouldn't glue these until you had the front and rear strapped together, sometimes the cover straps need to be adjusted. Good luck with the build
  4. I suppose there would be no reason why you could used a stiff setting silicon for the inside too
  5. You will get a little bit of heat so I would only apply small pieces at a time, I have used a heat gun and the lids take a bit of heating before anything bad happens. Over here we can get it from automotive shops, even hardware stores stock it
  6. You could use some fibreglass resin and matting for the inside and a little bondo on the outside. Little bit of sanding, a little touch up with paint and you will be done
  7. It was in a local shop, if you like when I am next in there I can see if the have any more. Travel and suitcase shops would have them too.
  8. Very cool congrats and TM is such a nice looking armor
  9. As a costume it looks cool but I doubt you could have it approved. Seems like a lot of money for something non troopable, but hey if you can afford it go for it
  10. I would try some polish on a small area see if it brings it back to white
  11. I was looking at these s while a go, I couldn't find any info about using an external speaker but if you can use your own device with its speaker then it must be able to pump out a bit of volume. I liked the idea of being able to import your own files too, could load any Star Wars noises, chatter and so on, you can also loop files. I think it may go on to the wish list, if I can stop buying costumes lol
  12. Tha Thats a good question, as the DLT and E-11 are both an option not a must, even as an option as I read it you still need a holster but I would shoot the DO a pm Locitus
  13. Well done, don't forget to have a look at the how to's for extra mods to the blaster. There are lot's of hasbro builds so do some research while waiting for the mailman
  14. For those of you in Australia there are some nice boots here
  15. I also use small pieces of foam to stop the rotaion, I fixed them with super glue and they seem to hold
  16. I do the same when it is cold, warm the can is some hot water. Some cans that have been in storage for too long can spray blotchy, also different brands and what nozzels they use, the cheaper the spray paint the worse it seems to be.
  17. Looking good
  18. Hello and welcome have a good read, do some research, ask those who know and good luck with a choice.
  19. I wasn't sure if you had heard of blackmilk or not so I had posted some of their star wars picks, not sure if you had seen them. They apparently will be doing some more versions in the not too distant future, love their weekly podcasts lol
  20. Congrats Boss
  21. If it is too big in places then you may have to take it appart and do so trimming so it fits your frame a bit better. Armor is not a one size fits all, as Mark commented some pictures with you wearing it would be good.
  22. Yes this hobby is not a "I want it now, give me", you have to research and research and research and even when you know it all, research lol. Then its the long waiting lists and then the postage, don't get disheartened you will get there in the end.
  23. Not that much up on snowtroopers, all I can say about stormtrooper stuff is what I have read and be told by others, if it's on ebay then DONT BUY IT. Appart from waiting for postage, hunting for correct informations is the hardest part to this hobby, I would head over to Blizzard Force and have a good read and search. I am researching an imperial officer costume and it is almost like the research of my TK armor, very very time consuming, but at the end it will be worth it.
  24. I have noticed some snowtrooper stuff up for sale at the 501st forum, helmets and coasts and so on also if you haven't yet, go sing up to the 501st and also the Snowtrooper website Blizzard Force
  25. What do you need
