  1. Ahh bummer. Sorry to hear that, I like how it looked.
  2. Hey, just came across this thread. I have a buddy if mine who just offered to paint my armor for me. What is the specific code for white? He is very reputable in the industry and has offered since the standard can yellow over time due to natural weathering. I kind of want to but not sure if its needed. What benefits could come from it?
  3. Yea, even as a joke she chuckled and then gave the evil eye haha. Yea, the doopydoo's kit doesn't look as scary as I thought. On a side note with the armor build.....when measuring, what exactly am I measuring? For example, when doing the thighs, am I looking at the circumference of my thigh or something with the armor?
  4. I don't know what to do with myself!! I wanted to start today but got home late and didn't want to wake the child lol. Have a few more things to gather and I should be starting Sunday. I can't wait to troop and see the smiles on kids faces.
  5. Well, I first have to say, what an honor!!! Everyone here has been not only friendly but extremely helpful with tips and advice. So thank you all. But now to the good stuff.... The best way to end a week of work beside a cold brew is walking into your house with a big box waiting to be opened!! Not only did my AP armor arrive, but my doopie blaster and trooperbay stuff as well. I look forward to this build and at the moment so does my wife. As she has been kicked out of the bed for the duration of this build ðŸ˜.
  6. I had the same idea on plasti-dip. Was hoping I could find something out but no luck for me.
  7. So since I am waiting on my armor I am always looking and taking notes. What is the objective here? Is there a certain look? Im just curious and would like to know .
  8. I'm jelly....anxiously waiting my AP armor!
  9. Hey, thanks everyone. These tips will go along way for me. Since I do want Centurion, I will dig deeper and go that extra mile when building. Even if I don't get it right away, I will keep on trucking. Thank you again.
  10. Wow!!! Echo, you are pure awesomeness right now lol. Yes, I have been trying to figure out which style I want to do. It started out as ROTJ but after research, I have stepped back and decided AP was what met my needs. So now I'm looking to do ANH hero centurion level. Thanks for the tag info. I'll be researching that way more often now when I need better results. Being this is my first build, I would die if I messed up! So yes, looking at other ANH builds will really help me out as well.
  11. Hey Echo, Hey, I too am new as you see lol. But thanks for the little tidbits of info. I agree with you on the personal goals of an armor build and I am the person who would like the more "screen accurate" look. Being I would like to go Centurion, I guess I will have to do more digging on the rivets and snaps for the suit and find some more written details as well. Again, thank you for your input and I will def be putting it to use here in the next few days while still doing my research. Im just very excited to start this and wasnt sure if I have missed anything or over looked it. Have a great New Year and good luck with your build as well fell trooper.
  12. Hey everyone, the time has come for me to contact my future Armor builder and let them know that I am wanting to buy from them. But before I do, I have a few questions for you all that I am curious about. I just dont know if I have over looked them and what not. Questions: 1- Is it better to paint the helmet or use decals? 2- How do I know where to apply rivets and snaps? Also, how many do I need? 3- How do I get the armor to hold its self inplace on my legs an arms? 4- If Doopydoo's is out of stock on E-11 blaster kits, where else can I look? 5- While building it, should I just go ahead an set myself up for EIB? Again, thank you for reading and helping me out. I am sorry if these are things that I just havent found yet. Hope everyone has a good New Years night!!!!
  13. Seems they are out of stock! I went to buy one last night and it was out . I'm sure they will have more soon . How was the build? Looks really good btw. What paint did you use in the blaster?
  14. I know this is an old thread but thanks for the few links on this kit. Might just pick this up while I wait to buy my AP armor.
  15. As Im searching around on the forums, I keep seeing RT-MOD pop up here an there. I checked out the website and I am blown away!! You give great pics from every angle and your shop setup is amazing. I look forward to the day I am able to purchase from you and get this build going. Thanks for what you do and when is the best time to Contact you? Also, I saw that you make for larger frames....What would be considered by you a larger frame? I'm 5'9 at 195lbs. ( just curious )
