Congratulations Russ, you look magic sir.

That is a neat idea, I like it.

Great idea Adam, looks awesome too.

Hi mark Everything on the FISD forum end seems fine. Your affiliation does lapse if you do not log into the forums at least once a year. The only thing your affiliation actually effects is the ability to vote in the detachments election. As we are on the legion server shared service, our data base automatically gets updated before elections every year and your affiliation becomes reconnected provided you do log in. You last logged in in 2018 until today.

This will be the 4th set of armour auctioned off as 501st members cash in on their screen time in the TV series. At least the fourth I am aware of, could be another. If Disney don't care then why should legion right. It's not a good look in my books, but each to their own. Generally if you can be bothered doing some sleuthing, it's not too hard to figure out who it is putting it up for auction. That's how we worked out who sold the first couple lol. Wonder how much this one will garner, I do find it interesting to see what the perceived value is to a collector on any given day/auction.

Thank you Jonatan for offering assistance to our members, I think this might go well, so I am going to pin your post so it is easy for everyone to find.

Blaster is coming along very nicely, keep up the great work.

Wow Adam, you look awesome!

Welcome Paige!

Welcome to FISD Brad Looks like you have had an interesting life, and it's about to get a whole lot better again! This is a wonderful, fun hobby and I am positive you will fit right in here.

Congratulations Jonatan, welcome to Centurion

If you need me to remove images you have posted directly as opposed to using IMGUR or any other 3rd party share service, just let me know and I can remove them from the back end.

Try either option, I use direct link sometimes and others I use the one for forums towards the bottom. The direct link doesn't work for me on my Garrison forums so i have no choice.

Congratulations and welcome to Expert Infantry rank Jonatan

Wow starting to look like the real deal, I love that little sanding tool you purchased, must look for one myself as getting into those small areas is quite a painstaking task.

Congratulations Gerald, welcome as an official Stormtrooper!!

Cool!

Perfect!! I hope we are sharing some of these memes on our SM platforms, the effort you guys put in should be enjoyed by everyone, they are so great.

@gmrhodes13 you know need a follow up with the rejoicing as the 6 year wait has ended and members are receiving those BBB's I'm waiting for the next chapter

Very pleased to see you post this up at last Joseph. How could I say no to such an admirable and generous offer, but that is you to the core. Good luck with this build and ever better luck with the eventual auction. Two things I know for certain, 1. This will be a wonderfully finished piece with you and your attention to detail and skills. 2. FISD members in general are generous and I am positive this pieces will be worth every cent to the auction winner, as not only do they get an E-11 blaster built with love, they will do so in the knowledge that they have made a difference with the proceeds going to a great charity. Well done sir, it's why we love you so much.

Welcome aboard Carter! You will find no shortage of assistance here, so ask plenty of questions and ch out a few build threads to give you some ideas.

I saw Christhepropguy used this one today, also had a chuckle.

Oh I like this, spot on would make a very nice prop

Hi Cody, Glad you took my advice This is a massive resource, but fear not we have plenty of members and staff, all here to assist you in every way we can. Obviously if you need any local Brissy assistance hit me up, I've built/assisted many Redback members with their armour over the years. Glen has given you 2 key links that you should wade your way through, but also make sure you familurise yourself well with the Shock trooper CRL https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_shocktrooper This is the guide on how to assemble your costume to meet Legion basic approval. You will notice some Blue and Red text under the Black text sections. These are optional levels of accuracy you can build to, which will come under review here on FISD as they are driven by the detachment. For your basic approval, that will be handle by our Redback Garrison GML and the CRC (costume review committee) which I am part of as well. Ask plenty of questions, and assistance will flow. Enjoy the journey, it's a wonderful experience.

Thanks Code, this is the kind of feedback we hope to here from our members, and I'm glad the detachment has made this journey a pleasant one for you
