Looking good there! Can't wait to see the final result. The MRCE's ususally turn out really great.

Wow, sorry to hear that bro. Maybe line the inside of the shin with foam of some sort? So it fits snug around the metal.

You can secure the belt to the ab-piece with snaps. I placed one snap on each side of my ab. and it holds the belt well in place.

Hmm...maybe you could use snaps? The ab and kidney could also be riveted, but then you would still have the same issue as with glue I guess. Show some pics of it. Use something bigger than a suitcase to transport it. I know Ikea has a plastic case/box that might work. I'm getting one next week, so I'll let you know if it fits everything. It doesn't cost more than 129NOK and comes with a lid as well. It whiteish/transparent so I'm just gonna paint it flat black and apply my TKID and stuff in white.

Me too. I don't listen to too much BM but Dimmu Borgir and Satyricon are great bands and we of course have loads of others as well:) Met the guys a few times and they are all really great guys and easy to talk to. So for a fan it's easy to approach them, which isn't always the case with some bands:)

Hehe....depends on how fast:-P It's been a few years since I last played. My band was ususally compared to Pantera, Machine Head, Sepultura and Fear Factory.

Yeah we have a great metalscene over here. Used to play myself but have since had to lay my drumsticks away to have time for family and such. You're welcome over here anytime

Here I am:

I just tell them it's for a movie prop. They usually just go "Oh...ok.." And that's that.

I've been real busy with the military lately, and I'm trying to get enough quality time with Fallout 3 :-)

Woohoo! :-) I´m running down to pick Wookiee-hair ASAP! :-) Thanks:)

Am I in or what?!

I just held the ammobox in place and glued a strip of abs on the inside of the thigh to hold in place.

Here it is:

Thanks guys!!

Thanks T! I´m pretty stoked:) And I reached my goal of Elite it seems as well

I´m in! Thanks!

Just take things one piece at a time. Tweak it slowly, measure twice, cut once. The guy in that pic need to eat! ;-)

That's really starting to look good! My opinion is that you might want to shorten the thighs a bit, they seem a bit "tall" for you. You can do this by taking maybe an inch off at the top (just take little by little). And the shoulder bells can still be made a little smaller, and if you feel they stand out, you can use a heatgun to fix that part. I did a lot of work on my FX-bells to make them look better. If you separate the kidney and butt, it's easier to shorten each individual part to fit you better as well, just a tip. Great work so far!!

Now that you indeed need to do! :-) I'd definately recommend the ears tough, they are way oversized, and it's not that hard either. Loads of good tutorials on it here.

Cool! I'll see if I can get suited up this evening and get some new shots with the last fixes. And not just Elite #40, but also the first in NOrwayand second in the Nordic Garrison as I understand it:-)

I will. I heard there where some problems with the 501st website. GML's had problems adding new members fully or something.

Well since I started this post, I guess I should share what mine means. TK-2330 is what me and my wife pay in Norwegian currency every month in kindergarten fees. I had som other, more meaningfull numbers, but all where taken:-)

I'm not 100% sure, but I think you have to thin the ears down a bit as well.
