  1. Thank you all very much!

    I'm just so proud to be a legion centurion now. :smiley-sw013:

     

    I want to thank everybody on the FISD forum for all their posted questions and build threads from which I was able to learn a lot.

     

    Especially I want to thank Paul ( TM ) for his awesome armor kit and all his swift and kind answers to my messages and Geaux Saints for his very helpful build thread. :D

     

    As for the thighs: that is a very easy mod which would definitely improve my convenience a lot...I'll go for that.

     

    Thanks again.

  2. Thank you.

    I was planning on taking a whole new set of photos with all the corrections (I'll be needing them anyhow for centurion application). But since I won't be able to work on my armor for about two weeks I can't promise anything. Thank you in advance for your patience.

     

    As for the blaster...any recommendations on how to dissolve zap-a-gap without breaking everything [i'm kind of desperate because I don't want to destroy my blaster]?

  3. Now I see it with the tube stripes...you're right. I must have mixed up something in the heat of battle...or I just didn't saw it back then.

    As for the ejection port protector: I realised it as soon as everything was glued together and fully dried. :mellow: I didn't manage to get it apart and stopped trying because i feard breaking it.

     

    I know it's a heretical question (but before I risk destroying or scratching something and bevore I "attack" my helmet with paint thinner): Are the tubestripes and the ejection port protector a show-stopper for EIB or Centurion?

  4. Thank you guys. :)

    Well TM Armor is just a charm to work with. I want to thank Paul as well. He always answered swift and helpful to my noob questions.

     

    I can't really recall if the pictures were taken before or after I made some modifications to the padding inside the helmet (like making it thinner). Without padding it would fit the best (in terms of height)...but then the padding would be gone. :P

    Yes, the mesh...it's kind of silly, but i just wanted to prevent people from seeing into my helmet.

     

    Of course, adding some padding to the ab plate...thanks, I will definitely try that. :duim:

    Since I'm a bit too skinny for my torso armor, I was already thinking of trimming a bit off at the side of the kidney and ab plate. But with padding I don't have to alter these parts (what I didn't really wanted to). That is also the reason for the angle of the belt and ab plate. Since the blaster is in the holster on these pics, the additional weight was pulling down on these parts...

  5. Hi everyone,

    I'm a longtime stalker who is about to make his first post.

     

    It's almost a lifelong dream of me to own a stormtrooper armor. At the beginning of this year I set things in motion to make this dream come true. I was reading posts/how to/tutorial articles on this forum and learned a lot (since it's always the same: you either do something right the first time or you have to do it over and over again).

     

    I finished my first build of a TM ANH Stunt Stormtrooper recently and I'm in contact with the Swiss Garrison. As soon as I'll have my TK ID I will be applying for EiB first and then Centurion (since this was the main goal while building it).

     

    Greetings from Switzerland

    Oliver
