  1. I'd start with the thighs, these are the first parts on when you kit up.

     

    What's hitting and where, are they too big, are they too snug or just so? Looking at them they want to come up a shade but there's stuff in the way.

     

    You're arms, abs, back, butt and belt also need looking at but one step at a time is the best way to good results.

     

    I'd also agree that having a poke through some of the Anovos builds its a good idea, maybe start by going to the centurion section and finding some members who cleared Anovos at level 3 so you can see what they did to get there. (plug: I'm one of them and I have a handy link to my build in my sig)

  2. The doopydoo kit is one of the best out there for both quality and price (and there for value).  But their already poor customer service seems to be getting worse and worse from what I've been reading.  I was toying with buying another last summer/autumn but the rumours of stuff taking even longer put me off.

     

    There may well be a perfectly valid reason for all these delays but thanks to the "legendary" comms issue we'll never know.  Guess it's time for us to all move on, which is a real shame.

  3. There's a few dozen lined up over the next few months, with more already in the pipeline I'm sure (the events team only publish 8 weeks in advance).

     

    Next big ones will be the MCM events in Liverpool (march), Birmingham (Different weekend in March) or London in May. There's lots of smaller events but I'd have to go look those up, there's one in Basingstoke I think, but don't quote me.

  4. Turn up at a troop and you'll be welcomed. We'll have a good time, make some smiles and arrest some rebels.

     

    If you want to know the ins and outs of the UKG clearance process let me know and I'll give you a run down, I won't lie it's not as simple as most Garrisons but it's also not as scary as people make it seem. Yes the standard is high but it's also not unachievable with only a little care and attention to detail.

  5. Hi Andy welcome to the FISD. 

     

    I went to uni in Bournemouth, lots of good memories there.

     

    I must admit I don't know how active or not the Dorset troopers are in the UKG.  What I will say is if you're going to go to the effort of movie accurate then the UKG will welcome you.  It does seem a bit regimented but the reality is once you're through the clearance process you can take or leave as much of that side as you want.  What it does give you is access to some of the great trooping and event opportunities we have.  This is obviously you're call but at least consider it.

     

    I'm going to guess you've got a Shed (also known as a DA) kit?  

     

    What ever you're choices 501st wise get a build thread up and ask any questions you need and I'm sure you'll come out the other end looking great!
