  1. i remain confident that Salacious Crumb is what you get when you strip, shave, and fail to domesticate Jawa. the big assed versions on whatever cartoon they are on are what happens when you feed them after midnight.
  2. no. make sure the codpiece is so high and tight it either raises your voice an octave, or you feel an urge to walk on tip toes to prevent friction. if thats not possible and leaves the black gap then you will need to resize something, and you wont be able to walk like that....
  3. kit, or completed suit? also, I know you cant get onto the Canadian Garrison forums yet, but It would be a good idea to look up their GML email on 501st.ca or on 501st.com, find the groups. say hi, tell them you have a TK coming and want to know the joining process, and ask if they have Mentors still, build parties, or Armourers for commission. RSP is a great suit and it will look sharp when it is fitted to you. Just remember, go slow. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast, and fast is approved :-)

    but are they separate thus allowing for a sling to be slid up to sit on the shoulder or is there still a bicept to should strapping? otherwise the sling would go on, then the bell to clavicle strap. otherwise I think the slings are a goof, an afterthought, or just to hold a blaster for display.
  5. yeah, dates might take a bit, that part of our forum is archived. will work on it.
  6. 150 please :-) will try to get dates added this weekend, that part of our forum is archived, and I have three papers due for grad school. whee.

    sling under hard armour. are R1TK bells and bicepts different than ANH?
  8. you know, you could accept the advice of all the members with centurion armour and attache badges, all given good naturedly from 50 varying cultural backgrounds.... or not. the simple fact that FISD has kept every post since incarnation means you will find eleventy versions of "correct" as we evolved from polaroids and triple laser pointers to 4K.
  9. then, maybe, that "specific", isnt. lets play a game: top five burning unanswered questions. go.
  10. read. the. getting. started. thread. slowly. :-) slow is smooth. smooth is fast. fast is centurion out of the box. everyone wants to be a centurion, right? seriously. read the thread. anh stunt armour is the most common. then the list of vendors. everything is listed there. some vendors ship international, some do not, so spend time checking their sites, or message them here. also, ask troopers in your local garrison who have EI or Centurion kits what they have. and, the most important awkward questions asked: tell us your size and shape, there are many armour vendors, one will fit you better than the rest. e.g. I am 5'8" and 165 pounds, mesomorph, and about 95 cm around the navel circle. (gut) ATA armour kits fit me 99% perfectly. If I was 5'10" and my arms an inch longer, then it would be perfect. Other armour is too big for me, but perfect for the six foot tall troopers that make people ask... well you know. to which I reply "I am the correct height for a Stormtrooper." anywho, find a suitable kit first. then soft parts. then find the list of tools someone has pinned. and someone local to help you make that first cut. or all of them. and we will all welcome your shiny white plastic ... suit, when you are approved.

  12. for basic approval, that is basically correct. they should all look the same on each set of limbs, and if they all look the same even better. unless you are, well, me, five 9 165 pounds and a mesomorph, out of the box white armour will be kinda annoying. if you have massive calves, thighs, shoulders, and are shorter or taller, etc., there are lots of brilliant conversion threads around here. that dorito shaped thigh mod terrifies me. abs paste terrifies me.
  13. could he ship them to you with a few bucks to buy supplies to make them fit? take pics and video for him so he can help others local?
  14. err... the 501st doesn't retire a costume it it isn't worn annually. many people will use long events to do a 501st troop in the AM and a RL troop in the PM to keep memberships active....
  15. is this a mix of kits? there seems to be different colours of white going on. only thing i noticed: make sure the cod is pulled up tight. snug. and the rear part the same. with gaps in the armour they will lift and separate. i would order some more obs from the vendor and complete the middle just for appearances even if the lvl 2 or 3 arent of interest.
  16. thats a big difference. my ata forearms are different sizes also but not as much.
  17. yeah, the originals from anovos slid over the rubber, and the flap still worked so you could connect the buckle. kept the pouch flat. sliding the entire thing over the buckle makes it bulge out and just looks like its going to flop around. my red set was the second method and I added the side slots. never finished that concept tho.
  18. zip ties are from star wars? next youll be telling me velcro is from vulcan....
  19. only if you are making a fallen order or mandalorian tk. canon is only canon for the specific source and costume. just build your shiny white anh stunt tk to centurion out of the gate: you wont need that other crap :-) or, build a heavy, and you can have all the accessories your back can bear. i own a garrison pauldron, for special troops, and have made parade pauldrons for st. pattys parade, pride, xmas. but otherwise i like to look like the costume appeared on screen. ive never understood accessorizing with other costumes' bits. want pouches and a bfg? theres a costume with those somewhere.
