Someone over on the UKG spotted these and I thought that a few of yous might like to have a little play around with them. They're paper stormtroopers that are real easy to make. Here's the link to the site where they have a whole bunch of different characters that you can make and some are just brilliant http://www.cubeecraft.com/ Here's a copy of the template check out the E11 Hours of fun for all the family, and you could even build your own detachment

Jim What ever you do DO NOT eat those nuts ------------ They are extremely addictive and should be disposed of in a controlled manner. Lucky for you that I am highly trained in such matters so please send them straight to me where they will be consumed in a controlled environment ....mmmmm....Macadamia

Ole Nice set up you've got there mate, well done The only thing that I would show is the right side of your blaster to see that you put the extra T-Track on both sides The rest looks good to go We might just get to that 50 mark before January at this rate.

Mark You can also use some plastic tubing or a pipe and cut it length ways and that will give you a 'U' shaped track that you could use.

Steve Yerrp, you're 100% right (as bloody always ), the pictures came from Brian, I just spotted his post over on the PD. Fantastic photos from a briiliant guy and he even joked about AA maybe replicating the orignal Stormtrooper weapon, .........the 2x4

Jason That's the first thing that I thought..."Why as he got the belt around his knee" It's weird but things look odd, as John said the hand plates, the biseps look like two tubes calves / shins look strage without the trim. The thighs look real, look at the tops only TM does thighs that good other than the originals. If its a fake then its a bloody good one .....And if its real...... Kirk, PLEEEEEESE show some more pictures

Mark and Thayne Do you know if your 'Elite' applications for ESB and ANH will be classed as new and added to the total or will you get additional status information added to your existing profiles? Just wondering, because it might mean that we need 2 new guys to help break that big 50 barrier

May I say in Mr.Ainsworths defence, and on a positive note that he does make some darn good Pedoloes and fish ponds

Mark Interesting hypothesis Sir! But I don't know if that would explain the bumps on molds that were taken from the inside of an helmet (unless they painted them as well ). I would love to hear the thoughts of others on the subject

Edwin Here's a few photo that should help mate. Hope this helps

arrh, ziss is ha phah-fect-lee normal, and common zimmtom of menny-menny people in diss hobby......

Guy Not sure how much this is going to help you but here's the measurements of a TE Man, I just love those asymmetrical features of a screen accurate helmet, nothing matches and its BRILLIANT Good luck with the project mate

Pat I'm not to keen on Hero's but I have a GF Hero with bubbles and the vision aint too bad. I'd never troop in it though,....I just love the look of Stunts too much

FAN-BLOODY-TAS-TIC!!! Mike I am SOOOOO pleased for you, it just couldn't happen to a nicer person you more than deserve it mate. And remember, your friends will ALWAYS be there for you. Well done mate

Kenny Here ya go mate

Marcel Sorry mate, I didn't mean to stir things up, it was just an observation I'm only going by what I've seen on screen used suits and to me the one in your photo looked a wee bit long, didn't know it was an SDS but I think AA might of miscalculated it a little bit I think you can work it out roughly by taking the proportions / dimentions that you know to be a constant. So if you look at the screen shot of the back of the stoormtrooper we can safely say that the rectangular section that follows through from the kidney plate to the butt is a known measurement, so from that you can work out as near as possible what the TD size should roughly be. Mate, if you're happy with it then leave it, you don't have to create more work for yourself but if you want it more screen accurate then its break out the Dremmel I'm afraid Hope this as helped in some way

I love these photos, here's the one from the other side. Makes you want to dive in THAT time machine and go back and grab a couple Andy I thought that as well about the aerators, they look like they were formed in place but everything we know says that they were added after

Marcel Looking good mate Its a shame that the photos aren't bigger so that we could see your armour in all its glory. The only details that I can think of that Scott may want to see is maybe close up of the front of the belt to see how its attatched, the drop box straps, back and side of helmet, possible close up of the sides (Just see that you posted some up ), ab plate detail(nearly forgot this one),and how the thermal detonator is attatched. Talking of the TD, was that the one that came with your suit or is it a replacement? It just looks kind of too long for some reason Original Hope to see you joining the ranks reel soon mate

Lisa If you follow Peter's (Stukatrooper) fantastic tutorial you shouldn't have too many problems Glue only the left edge of the finishing strip for your left calve and the right edge of the strip for the right calve.Then apply heavy duty velcro to the overlap. Hope this helps

Yerp. T M showed just how bendy 0.060 ABS can be in a post back in July Here's the link --------------

Paul Unbelievable mate, you dee MAN!!

Scott Thank you so much, that's fantastic!! And I'd like to thank you all for your kind comments. I feel privileged to be able to wear this magnificent armour and hopefully do it justice in purveying the essence of a true stormtrooper. Chris The sides do touch mate, I just have to stand still and take a deeeep breath in and hold it but I will look into maybe getting them to stay closed more ...and yerrp, real scope and counter mate
