Great to see you picked up the build again! I looked a lot at this thread when I started my own build on a TM. Can't wait to see your finished armour, all the pieces till now look really good!

Thanks Mathias, much appreciated!

Richard Smits 19979 EIB A4

Thanks guys! Really looking forward to my first troop next week

Woohoo! Thanks Tony and Andrew! I'll be sure to give the detonator a firm tug next time, and giving the boots some more coats is on the to do list! I'll have to lose some weight to be able to wear the thighs higher, but that's not a bad thing in my case From basic approval to Centurion in 5 days, I didn't expect that when I started building this 2 months ago Thanks everyone for the very helpful feedback and the great help I got in my build threads!

Thanks Andrew, looking forward to it! There were only some minor adjustments, so I could do them all this weekend. One thing I see now in my pictures is that I didn't push the thermal detonator down far enough on by belt. Hope this isn't a problem, you can see in the left and right side pictures that there is actually some room left on the clips to push it down further. I think my EIB pictures show it sits correctly normally (that's what you get when your GF helps you suit up )

Hand painted look FTW! Looks good as it is.

Nice nice, a lot of work done in those few days. The dremel is way faster that scissors

Glued the thermal detonator. Unfortunately my aluminum strips aren't aligned perfectly, so the little gap on the left is unavoidable (it looks worse than it is because of the angle of the shot). Hope this is ok: Bonus pic, glued the handguards with rubber repair from Bison, and added some heavyweights to push down on them

Thanks for the feedback Andrew!<br><br> I shortened my forearm straps yesterday, and I'm working on my detonator today. The rubber hand guards are giving me a headache, I tried CA glue yesterday but that didn't work. So today I'm trying rubber repair stuff from Bison. Third time is the charm (I hope). I'll post the adjusted detonator here when it's done.

I have tickets for the 10.00 AM showing on the 16th... Along with about half of the Dutch Garrison After that showing a lunch with the garrison and then probably a troop all day at that cinema.

The year (1997) and age (9) I became a Star Wars fan. Yes, with the release of the Special Edition of ANH in theaters.

Done:

I thought that was an optional one? I'll make some photos later today.

Thanks Andrew, looking forward to it!

Will do, thanks for the tip!

I'll be following this topic closely. Good Luck Daan! This is the correct sub for ANH build threads BTW, so you're good to go!

I will be shortening the forearm strap this weekend, and the shoulder elastic and rubber handguards are also on the to do list

I'm approved! TK-19979 reporting for duty! I'll be posting my EIB status request this weekend Hope to hear more feedback from you guys if you have any! And thanks again, without the great help I got in this topic the build would have been a lot tougher

I thought about that, and maybe that's easier. I already have them completed now, and I won't need to hassle with velcro or whatever to get them to work on the nomex.<br><br> So I guess I'll just have two pairs of gloves, one accurate pair with all rubber parts and one with the nomex plus abs handguards. <br><br><br> Sometimes the solution is right in front of you.
