Very proud of my German Heritage, lived there for 4 years when I was a young fellow. We lived in Rosenheim Munchen, near where my parents came from originally. My sisters name is Heidi, don't get much more German than that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I love Christmas time, cause AlDI stock Lebkuchen, and it's a lot cheaper than having to import it from Lebkuchen Schmidt in Nurnberg. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes we have AlDI in Australia, my family is German, from Bavaria, and yes we shop at AlDI, not Austria, definitely Australia[emoji106] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Echo fans all the way. Here's a quick tip for wiping your armour out, ....... Ready.........Baby wipes....Boom.. There you have it. You can buy a non scented variety, they are great for cleaning down the inside of your armour, bucket, he'll I even used them to clean down my carbon fibre road race bike. They come in packs of 240 for about $3. Any of you Aussies out there, the brand from ALDI stores is the cheapest and the best. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I guess your right, it is closer to me, than it is to you. I'm all over it, cause it just makes sense. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Sounds like the Rebels are running some interference out there. Lesson 1. Don't trust the rebels, their information is dirty and underhanded at best. They will stop at nothing to prevent/deter you from joining the Imperial forces. Legion for life.

That's the go definitely, a throat mic, I need to find one locally and give this a crack as I too am fed up with trying to keep the mic in a correct position and getting my bucket on . Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Mods are looking sweet, almost there brother. [emoji106] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Wow, awesome, Congratulations.

Looks fantastic. Not that I think it will have a bearing on your application, but you could just bring those drop boxes up, until they virtually touch the bottom of the ammo belt, can't see anything else, now the Det screws are black. Good luck with your application. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Looking sharp Trooper, good luck with your application. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes to industrial Velcro Looks like you have got everything covered. I used Velcro on my snap plates as an insurance measure, incase a snap ever broke or popped out in the field. Save the cash on the heat shears and just use a cigaret lighter on the ends of elastic and webbing material, it works just as well. Good luck with your build, and please post plenty of photos, as not only do we LOvE photos of armor, but an image will always bring more accurate feedback. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

There is no reason why you can't aim for the top, and go Centurion with an AP kit. You do however need to replace a few bits. The Hovi mic tips supplied are tap aerators. pM Sskunky from CFO, his are fantastic . S trim for base of helmet , go to Trooperbay for that. Backs for your drop boxes, sorry can't remember where I got mine from. I love my AP armour fits me well, so if you aim for Centurion from the start of your build, it is easier than you might think to achieve. Have a look at my armour build at the bottom of my post, and check out as many AP, EIB and Centurion applications and builds as you can, it all helps.

Loving it so far, I can't miss this, popcorn time. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

WOW, you look sensational. How long can you stay kitted up before you overheat, considering the tight fit of the head pieces? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Looking good, keep it up [emoji106] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I use a suitcase, everything fits inside each other as has been mentioned. I wrap the blaster in a towel to stop marking the armor. I have a separate helmet bag from Trooperbay, with my TK number and forum name on it. Recently added FISD patches with EIB and Centurion rockers, and it looks great. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

To weather, you can use what is called "Dry brushing", I'll explain. I have included the link to my blaster build which has a few images of when I was weathering the scope. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/28297-slys-first-build-e-11-doppy-full-resin/ You select the desired paint colour, so lets say you are weathering the scope. Brass would be what you need as the originals were made of brass and then painted black. So first you paint your scope black, then dip you brush into the brass paint only a little. You then wipe the brush onto a piece of paper removing a lot of the excess until the brush strokes are leaving virtually no paint behind (run the brush back and forth like you are scribbling) Now brush back and forth lightly on the part of the scope you wish to look weathered. The effect is like black has been worn away exposing the brass underneath.

Looks awesome John, had fun helping out yesterday, getting closer and closer to completion [emoji106] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Looking good Trooper. I absolutely agree, it is so much fun. I am actually enjoying helping a fellow member build an MTK at the moment, and must say am very impressed with the kit in general. Looking forward to seeing your EIB application, hint , hint
