  1. you can buy decals from trooperbay. If you are doing an ANH Stunt build you want the handpainted look (dave M stickers). and individual tube stripes. they also sell a set of stencils for the tubes and you hand paint them. a coat of white then a couple coats of the correct blue.
  2. The extra material will be the strips on the front and back seams of your thighs forearms biceps and calves. You might need some for side shims depending on your girth. E6000 is glue. It attaches to each thing you are gluing together and sits in the middle. Abs cement is like a weld. It melts each piece and then solidifies and you've basically got one solid piece. E6000 is forgiving. Abs cement isn't.
  3. I don't think a laminate trooper will stand up well unless you resin the inside .
  4. Ata has one big one less big. You can trim the inside edges a little and try to make it more oval with heat...but they all for that way.
  5. Guys at a conference. Or needs his name tag while he walls around in case he wanders too far from home.
  6. Guys talking out of his hat anyway...
  7. it's a knurled handle. you could make one out of dowel and patience with a knife. find a suitable sized knurled driver or round wrench at the thrift shop and cut it to size and epoxy in.
  8. Former reservist. Photo video technician and sales. Going to nursing school in the fall. Anybody have a 501st medic and nurse patch for trade?
  9. The unit only fires when I push a button. No heat or anything. Humidity kills it. After a troop sounding like a chipmunk I moved the board to my arm and it hasnt happened since. Works in minus 20 to plus 30.
  10. the armour itself has offset rear traps so they were painted inside the moulded areas. short of ironing out one of the trap areas and forming a new trap....maybe i can paint it so it looks like its not crossing a trap.
  11. Dude you say the innards of airwolf....lucky.
  12. Helm traps rear. The mould is uneven. Is that normal? should I have painted them even...but they would look awful with the dividing bump and empty white space...I have to make one side more trap than square I know.
  13. This costume means a lot to me...my parents never got to.see it but.I want it done right.
  14. So...black coated wire wrapped around t tracks...sigh. more work.
  15. Oooh...I thought that was just peoplemholding them in place while the glue dried....
  16. I'm there the 14th to the monday i think. what i bring depends on the airlines. or i ship it but hate the taxes.
  17. Novus 2 takes out blemishes. Novus 1 is the polish.
