Thoughts on Deuno Novo, today.
themaninthesuitcase replied to Atnevon's topic in ANH (Stunt and Hero)
I purchased a DN First Order kit, a while ago. It was in stock and I got it here in the UK from the US in around a week. I also ordered a neck seal and there was some manufacturing issues but they sorted it for me reasonably quickly, would have been faster but it went out of stock so had to wait for a restock. They usually offer discounts around may 4th, that’s what I used when I ordered. -

@TK6178 if you want to merge the accounts we can do that for you. Just PM me and let me know the 2 accounts, which one to keep, and probably more importantly what email you want to use and I'll make it happen.

Welcome Matt! As Glen says that post is updated as often as it needs to be. The armour situation is pretty stable at the moment and it's been a while since it's change so 2024 is plenty up to date. Make sure you take your time and read up, we're always happy to help you. A little work up front can save expensive heart ache later.

Good to see you getting going. Make sure you sand that blaster, 3D print lines must not be visible.

Imgur is now blocked in the UK
themaninthesuitcase replied to themaninthesuitcase's topic in Announcements
It’s due to some well intended and not well implemented legislation to protect children from graphic imagery and video. The government will not back down any time soon I wouldn’t expect. Affected site need to implement a proof of age system using card payment systems, which is not exactly great, and imgur basically don’t want to. So to prevent legal hassle they just block to the UK. Not sure why other image sites work, but that’s what’s going on. -
Worth it ?

At 10 years old the plastic is going to be well past it's best, and the SDS kit is far from my favourite. Personally I'd pass. -

These changes are now applied to the working document I have for the NT which is in the correct format for the new CRL system. The R1 CRL was renamed to Non-Saga yesterday so will request the other CRLs be updated "soon". -

I'm currently trying https://freeimage.host/ which seems "pretty good actually" but will reserve judgement until I've used it a bit more. -
I say ish as this arrived in July, but 2025 I guess.... This is a ShearTech Rubber ANH E-11. I borrowed one of Marks at the start of the year having carried my Doopy for 9 years at that point. The lack of "oh no what if I drop it" was such a weight off my shoulder so once I got round to it a couple of months later I ordered one and it arrived in July. Where it mostly sat in a box until now. One thing I did change was the weathering. It came pre-weathered but not to my personal taste which is less is more. Most of the pre weathering was removed with IPA or acetone for stubborn areas and then I used Warhammer paints and a cheap Ali Express drybrush to repaint the slide and apply subtle weathering. The slide also got a coat of nuln oil and was then also drybrushed. I'll post some photos here. This isn't a Hyperfirm ultra idealised and perfected casting. It's a real world casting of a real Sterling, warts and all. I've also got a couple next to my Doopy Doo I built way back in 2016. ShearTech at the front, Doopy at the back.

Greetings Troopers, In line with some other CRL naming the Stormtrooper - Rogue One CRL has now been renamed to Stormtrooper - Non-Saga. This will bring the CRL in line with other detachments and also allow us to consolidate the uses of the armour from Rogue One, Andor and Kenobi, as well as any future uses, meaning we will not need multiple nearly identical CRLs with trivial differences. There's some wording that still references Rogue One, this will be addressed in time. https://crls.501st.com/fisd/stormtrooper-non-saga

Yes this is a good spot. If some one sends me a new image I can get it replaced. -

Oops forgot the back plate details: These are a few small details that would be lvl3 only, and is quite a small detail. -

Some of this is assumes the R1 CRL is updated to be a "non-saga" CRL as most the changes are from useage post R1. I've posted on legion about this rename. Teeth - R1, NT and artillery all already say 9. Shins (for all of R1, NT & Art) Add to L1: Shin closure is at the rear of the calf. The rear cover strip is mounted permanently to the outer half and closes over the inner half on both shins. Under Suit (for all of R1, NT & Art) Remove from L2: The hip section shall not have ribs. TD R1: "The center of both end caps is grey or white, and both must match." The wording "both" should imply both match but English isn't everyones first language so good to be a bit more specific. NT: just remove that line as they may want a grey TD as some of their grey elements. AT: no change without specific evidence. Pouldrons need to dig into that one more than I have time for today. Holster, blasters and space pack We can't add anything without a photo but if someone builds one I can help make it happen.
