I thought it was just me with a t-shirt obsession, I'm a nerd, yay and I'm a peep too. I think Big Bang Theory may have little something to do with geeks starting to be a bit cool also, yes I know they are not scifi, but they are geeky about it

If it's the wait for armor that puts you off then don't let it, well worth the wait and lots to purchase and build before it gets deivered to you

EBAY a place to spend lots of money on things that will never get approved, well not without a lot of work. Stick to the makers that are mentioned throughout this forum and you can't go wrong

Thank you all for the kind words and support, still got the biggest smile on my face, cheeks are starting to hurt. I couldn't believe when I applied for 501st clearance last night that I would be trying for EIB today (and maybe another level next LOL). Who know's where it will all end, may even see about putting my hand up for a FISD Attaché, not sure how many of them are over here down under

Thanks Eric, still smiling, cheeks are starting to hurt LOL

Ah yes measure twice cut once, good luck, will be watching to see how you go, I would like to tackle stairs one day LOL

And it's not even Austalia day, that's not until the end of January. Thanks for the update

I made my own and will be trying my Armor on it this weekend--------------- there are a few builds in the how to section

Thanks, I use white night satin black spray then after weathering I use a satin clear coat to stop further weathering

Welcome aboard fellow trooper, just got my acceptance today also, still very excited, well done

Thanks Reza, oh happy days are here indeed. Need to wait for full access before I can apply for EIB, also getting some more photo's taken on Thursday, hopefully I shouldn't have to wait too long

Thank you Mathias Thanks Jeremy, hope it's not too long away for you, can't describe the feeling right now

Had a feeling that I should wake up this morning and stalk my emails but 3am was a bit early LOL. I can't believe I am finally here, I am approved and a TK at last, could just yell, scream, dance, jump for joy, Oh the neighbours sorry lol. A big thank you to Mathias and all of you who have helped along the way and for the supportive comments. Proud to be a part of such an awesome group of people.

Nice work there, well done

Well done and congrats

Not sure if this will be of any help http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/4046-calling-fx-back-plate-modders/page__hl__+splitting%20+back%20+plate#entry52043

Don't like the way my left bell sticks out in a few of the photo's so will have a look at that see what can be done. Planning some more photo's on Thursday so if anyone notices anthing else please don't hesitate to point it out

Ok thank you Mathias , over engineering on my part, anything else that is noticed please let me know

Thanks Jeremy and good luck with your build Thanks Reza, waiting for the happy news of an ID comming my way LOL I put snaps in the front and the rear of the knees, wasn't sure which side would need the most tension to keep the shins up in place, will swap them around for futher approval

I do get around LOL, looking forward to the fans

Would you be able to pm contact details ?

Thanks Nicky, well on my way of learning I have managed to provide some info to help others, think this happens to most on their build journey. I have had a great time with this armor build, from the start of being scarred of the first cut, to the end with the final fit up, it is amazing how much you can learn in such a short time, but there is allways more to learn
