  1. I think this is my first own thread on the fisd...ok....i'm dirty and i love the Bapty version of the E11 (i already built 2 of them).

     

    ...but i think this is a really nice blaster, too:-)

    This is an original sterling with an original scope and an original hengstler. I didn't painted the sterling because i love

    the original taste of the colors. I just painted the scope rail (real steal), the central fuses and the hengstler (a little bit). I think i touched the

    selfpainted colors with the original near 90%.



    Here are the build and the results.....

    After the hint of my friends, i painted the hengstler counter...of course in the same style as the blaster is.

  2. Here is a short "project" update (it's not a real project because a stormtrooper never ends;-) )

     

    The two packages arrived. One of them was totally damaged but i built a great shield:-) so the armor didn't broken.

    Unfortunately she isn't able to dress up because the warm weather in the last weeks aggravate her MS:-(

    But she said that she and her husband anger their dog with buckets on....so we all hope that we'll get some shots of that :jc_doublethumbup:  :smiley-sw013:

     

    i give a new report when we have some pics!

     

    so long...move along....

  3. Hey all,

     

    OpiWan and myself like to introduce our project. But before we start with the picture story we like to write something about the history…

     

    I found a TK sale thread in the external german garrison forum. The person wrote something about that she/he can’t complete the build of the kit. She/he started 2010 but just finished some trimmings.

    It sound curious  so i wrote a pm and asked why she/he selling the kit (it was a PT kit).

    After a couple of days i got the replay: she is girl from vienna and a big star wars fan. Her marriage was supported by 2 imperial guards and her big dream was and is to have a Stormtrooper. But she became ill…her doc diagnosed Multiple sclerosis (for more information look here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_sclerosis).

    From time to time she got the typical symptomse and she wasn’t able to finish (or even to start) the armor. So she terminated her dream and tried to sold her kit.

     

    For OpiWan and myself it was clear that no desease has the power to stop dreams! We offered her to build her armor in that way that she can wear it and become part of the 501st. After some pm’s she agreed and sent the kit from vienna to frankfurt. We also needed her measurements because the distance for the fitting is a little bit too farJ (round about 720km or 447 miles).

     

    That’s the whole story and a great experiance for all…but now some pictures

     

    The package arrived (also a brown box;-) )

  4. Very nice Jason!

    it looks like that you closed the ab with the kidney with more than 3 rivets on both sides, right? and on the first pic it looks like, that you close the two parts also with split rivets.... it's totaly ok for the 501st approval but if you like to make an upgrade to centurion status you have to change it;-)
