[Stormtrooper Commander W.I.P]

you should make a video on how you did the weathering

[In Need of Spare ABS for Shim!]

ace hardware has 1/8 inch thick for sale signs for around 4 bucks i used for snap plates and cover strips. walmart only has paper thin signs

[Painted Traps]

looks fine, couldve fooled me if you said they were decals

[Pepakura and making a tk!]

i got this far before i got tired of folding. ill sell the torso parts for the cost of the material it took as i threw the arms out.

[HTA - High Tech Armor, anyone know about this?]

its in danish lol. best to assume its recast and move along. look how soft those ab buttons are

[Voocoder]

pat the tech support area is for forum issues lol. just ask your questions in the general armor discussions

[new bucket from Ctm props]

This doesn't belong in tech support, and efx sucks

[Hello from Arizona!]

if you do jedi might as well make a commander, im building one

[Hello from Arizona!]

what city?

[Hello from Arizona!]

We've got a couple Christmas parades coming up

[SDS (Shepperton Design Studio) E-11 Blaster photo report]

I hate it, but thanks for all the pictures!

[Unit Aurek-Seven]

So pretty much battle damaged tk... Also that picture makes no sense. The left is an anh hero promotional photo and the other two rotj stock photos heavily shopped for the novels sake. It's a conspiracy! Anyway might want to look a bit in the death trooper section for those cracked armor and damage effects. Then when people ask why is that stormtrooper damaged you can say it's one of 4 particular troopers you don't know from a book nobodys heard of

[Jedi Robe Armour]

all i remember is everyone hates jedi robe

[Advice needed-Thigh alignment issues & cover strips]

dont worry about the backs. align the front straight and accurate like normal then wrap the backs around your leg and tape it together comfortably. most of the back will be trimmed of so when you put the cover strip on itll look right. as for the extra edge on the right side, you can cut that whole back area off up about an inch or however to make bending knees more comfortable

[Affordable E11's Are Now Reality!]

well DVH sold his kits for 100-ish and that even included the pipe and scope rail iirc, so youll have to source those. after he sold the molds i never heard about them again. whoever bought them is probably covering his bathroom walls with hundreds of e11 casts. e11s and black trash bags. and vern is the man when it comes to blasters

[Affordable E11's Are Now Reality!]

too long didnt read. ill just wait for pictures and numbers with dollar signs in front of them.

[Stinky gloves]

You don't have to wear the same gloves you used for approval during troops.. I use tourmaster silk glove liners for troops. No gloves, just the liners themselves as gloves. They breathe easy and blend in with the undersuit. 18 bucks shipped on ebay.

[My 4 Costumes: Sandtrooper, BikerScout, Commander Cody and a Commander Shocktrooper]

Novatrooper elite, might as well go all-out on it lol. Think black sandy with gold racing stripes

[My 4 Costumes: Sandtrooper, BikerScout, Commander Cody and a Commander Shocktrooper]

time to join spec ops

[NE helmet]

just look on somebody elses build thread and see what they did.

[Animated Stormtrooper (SW REBELS)]

please dont make that kevin.

[Hey Ya'll]

Fyi you'll be spending about a grand when you're all set and done. Might want to keep that from the wife so she doesn't change her mind

 

Pick which episode stormtrooper you like, find a maker to a suit that fits your body type, and read the tutorials and see how other people have assembled their armor. Best way to get a jump start while you await the big brown box.

[Various Boots - Any Acceptable?]

I'd go with 2 or 3

[Wiring for microphones]

But for mics I would use solid core so it stays in place

[Maybe his helmet swelled when he hit a tree on Endor]

Believe it or not, that's the official stock photo. The "good" one was the fiberglass don post one they only made 25 of
