Rolf, It looks like late Xmas present

When there is TI8852, it means, that this number is taken by this guy. If he decides to go TK, he will have TK8852. But you can apply for 8854, if it is free and you have acceptable costume.

Nice Sandy. Somebody is building a personal army

What is price difference? Yeah black pastic can be painted white, you need make several layers of paint to cover it and some good paint for it. But I not sure how much it will be resistant to scratches and damaging it. I think better idea is have white stormie from white plastic.

Problem solved. In OBI they have steel 1 1/2" x 16 swg tube as part for garden fence pillar. For price about 14 EUR for 2 m long tube.

Another screenshot, where two of three ROTJ stormies don´t wear holster. They even have a bit different shoulders.

I make some more screengrabs.

As somebody said, when they used real Sterling as base for E-11. Logicaly they put it in holster on left, because ammo magazine, hengstler etc. They didn´t think about rebuild this weapon mirrored for right side holster. Too much work and money and almost no one will notice that. After years we can think, that Left handed stormtroopers are superior. For EIB ANH you need it wear on left, even if you are right handed. I don´t think they will change standard, because you are right handed or you make mirrored E-11 that can be worn on right. Funny is ROTJ in scene in front of Endor Bunker, many of them don´t wear holsters )

Good work Paul. Next step is hire some original TK/TD actors to wear it for promo?

Yeah thanks. They have here this tube, but they don´t accept paypal and I will ask about shipping to Prague.They don´t. Same as --------- Ha this looks interresting Aluminium Round Tube (6063T6) 1 1/2 in x 16 swg, but still 2,5 m long and no paypal or shipping to outside UK. Price is good. But somebody should buy it, cut it to 5 same part a send to me. Is anybody here, who can do it for me?

Can I ask someone, how hard is buy in UK adn send here few steel or duralloy tubes, 1 and 1/2 inch (38 mm) in diameter, 1-1,5 mm thick and 500 mm long for E-11 body? I have in my hands real Sterling for needed parts and it is better to use them on right tube, than bigger. We have metric system here and near diameter is 40 mm.

Good find. Thanks I was waiting for it from summer.They say, it is open from 2.1.2009 to 15.1. 2009.

Alex, I see you finally started. May be you will be faster than me

With computers is usualy the best way how to solve something test these simple things and if it fails, start test something complicated.

Good work

Welcome and congratulations. Who will be next?

Even if you copy FX armor it is recasting. FX doesn´t have lineage, but somebody made it. It will be really funny to ask all vendors of FX to show their molds and we can see if they are scratch build or only recasted. I think FX armor is more recasted than others.

I asked yesterday in store and seller said, that color change is possible, because when they mix colors and try to have paint harmless to environment it can produce this color change. May be Humbrol wants from us to buy paint from someone else

Looks good to me. I see this small helmet is more symetrical, than original asymetrical bucket.

Return edge is specific shape of edges of armor to give them some thickness. Because armor is made from 1,5-3 mm thick plastic and it should like that has something about 6-8 mm. There are two ways, how to achieve it .. 1/ buy armor with these return edges and hope it will match you without trimming 2/ use any armor and make them via small iron.
