  1. Congats, good luck on centurion
  2. Nice work there, good luck with eib approval
  3. Just checking, I vaguely remember reading about the spacing of the shoulder straps on the front chest, am I right in thinking the spacing is 4 1/2 ridges ?
  4. It may be a hi-bright led, you make be able to get a duller one or even add a resister to the led to reduce the power to it
  5. My ATA I have to put it on sideways then screw it straight. I have two fans, two speakers, sound board and three batteries, it is a tight fit but if you place everything in the recessed areas you can still fit in. Good luck
  6. I'm glad to see that troopers helping troopers also extends to those in need, well done everyone
  7. Use the clamps, I mean the force lol
  8. If I had thought earlier I would have started another costume first, like the idea of a imperial officer. Started making a mannequin so that is keeping me sane for now, just need to do a bit of foam work and get the hands to clamp
  9. Good luck with the weathering (or yer SIR) lol
  10. Well done
  11. I painted mine in silver, left a day to dry then went over with a satin black spray, leave to dry for another day the I used steel wool on the edges and areas that would be worn, ie: where the hands would hold, putting into holster, as if it had been knocked or chipped being dropped or placed down. Once I was happy with the weathering I used a satin clear to lock the weathering so it will not change, If I didn't eventually the siver would wear off and you would see the white pvc. BTW it was mentioned to me not to weather the hand grip as the original ones were plastic so wouldn't weather, just paint gloss black. Have a look at my build theads for my results, links in my signature, bit hard to see clearly but will give you an idea. Good luck with yours
  12. Funny way to probe, she is not the droid he is looking for
  13. Just a tip, steel wool well for weathering, youv'e probably finished it by now lol
  14. Sorry can't help you with this one I made my own, similar to yours but I cut a groove in the shaft so it slid along the slotted section of the barrel, the circle section sitting under the barrel.
  15. I have seen yours, very nice, pinched the cog idea, got two printed and coated in clear drying. Was going to add my tk numbers once I get them, if I ever get armor LOL
  16. I have twenty and plenty of clamps, wonder who I learned that from lol
  17. Been watching your build from early on and have definately been inspired to aim for centuion from the get go. Enjoy your long earned breather and happy trooping Sir
  18. Very cool well done trooper
  19. I have some 1 inch magnets and they are quite strong, got my finger stuck between some and It wasn't pleasant LOL
  20. Congratulations Sir
