  1. Also the frown is incorrect. Along with the ear caps.
  2. Hey John. Remember, it's easier to cut it then to grow it. Just had to remind you again.
  3. Do the conversion for basic approval, if you plan on trooping alot. Pick up a Hyperfirm, yes they cost a bit more. But it will save you in the long run. But if you are going for Centurion on the first try, get the full resin kit from Doopy's or another maker.
  4. Check out IComm from Jim Sauter. http://www.voicebooster.com/icomm-imperial-communication-system.html
  5. Research, Research, Research. You can't do enough. Just cause you got a kit from a vetted manufacturer, doesn't mean you will get approved.
  6. Good news letter. The bowling troop was a fun, no hassle good time. We had Wokiee's, R2 and a plethora of TK's, plus Baby Fette.
  7. I just went to Joanne and asked for a small sample of speaker cloth and they gave it to me for free. No need to go spend money on something when you can get it for free.
  8. I also use Maguires. To help speed up the process, I use a sponge buffing ball that you can put into a cordless drill. Then afterwards, I shine it up with some Turtle wax spray. The carnuba wax type.
  9. I have an AP kit as well. This is how they are meant to look. It is more screen accurate. ------------
  10. There is a great resource in the upper right hand corner of the web page that can help you search and locate all the answers to your questions for dimensions and all other information you may require.
  11. This is the stuff you should have gotten. --------
  12. I would guesstimate to say any where from 80-150 hours. Depends on how much work you need to do and how meticulous (anal) you are. I took about 95 hours. I got my AP kit in the middle of June and received my 501st # at the end of July. Keep in mind this is assuming you have most of the materials/tools required when you start. On a side note, if you use CA glue you could probably manage on the faster side. E-6000 takes 18-24 house to cure before moving on. Personally I would recommend E-6000 if this is your first build. Only for the reason it takes a while to set and you can always pull the joints apart down the road.
  13. I like how the ab button plates is part of the cast.
  14. leave the entire inside white. for both.
  15. Where is the thermal detonator? And isn't the holster on the wrong side for the style?
