[(137) TK 18910 Trooping Log]

I give permission for FISD to repost my photos on social media in an appropriate fashion.

 

Hey Troopers

 

This trooping log is waaaay overdue. This first post will just be listing all my troops to date. I intend to post pictures of (hopefully all) the troops I've attended and the friends I've made along the way.

Here we go. Strap yourselves in as we are going all the way back to 2017.

I also have to admit to wearing armour that does not fall under the FISD banner. Sorry guys

Most of these events have been amazing days that left so many smiles on faces. The flip side is that I have done a couple of heartbreaking troops that have no photographic evidence. Troops 67 & 68 are bitter examples.

Troop 67 was a visit to an awesome little girl at home, who lit up the world when she smiled. Troop 68 speaks for itself. This is why I do this.

There will be as many pics as I can find to follow

Congratulations Brother. Beautiful build

Awesome photo Brien  Both are looking great

Thanks Tony.
Unfortunately my little friends family have moved away so we don’t get to see her at events very often now. She has also outgrown her FO so is rocking a Dinky Darth at the moment

Looking sharp trooper, congrats on your approval

Thanks Q.

Wish it still looked that good but after 18 months of trooping it's in need of some much needed TLC. Need to spend some time fixing up the paintwork.

Never ending trooper troubles

[Bri's Jimmi FO TK Build]

Hello there

 

Sorry for being away for so long but so much going on and only so much time.

 

SPOILER ALERT

 

Managed to get this armour finished in time for the midnight premiere of TLJ but my clearance didn't come through until December 19th 2017. I was TLJ FOTK number 8 in the world.

 

I will get the rest of the build thread completed as I have the full build over on the UKG. I was in so much of a rush to get the armour finished in time for the premiere that the online stuff kinda fell to the dark side. (the only way to go)

Since then there has been a smelly filthy Jawa for my wife, the start of a Shoretrooper, many blasters and the beginning of a Clone now.

I will try to get this build thread finished soon and get my online presence back up to where it was.

 

See you all soon

Bri

 

ps. This is how I trooped the midnight premiere of TLJ with a young friend (with great taste in costumes)

Hey man did you trim your thighs? Mine need doing but want the right cut


Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hey Daniel

 

I did cut my thighs but not in length. I had to resize my thighs so they were not rattling about on my legs.

You can see from this image that I cut down the back and removed excess material before glueing in a strip of ABS then filling and sanding the outside before paint.

Hope this helps

[Safety when working on armor]

This is another good reminder for everyone.
I know I for one don't always take all the correct precautions when working on my armour even though I know I should. We all need to be safe to troop on our not blood covered armour


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[New Jimmi build help?]

I based mine on where the straps drop down from the harness I got from Teresa @ Geeky Pink Gaskets.

[New Jimmi build help?]

When snapping the thighs is it best out side or straight down de front?


Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I've just finished the strapping on mine and I've done mine just off the front ridge line.

Ask Anna who painted short trooper’s battle buddy - they seemed to make a good job of that.

Reached out to Anna today as nowhere locally can help on this. As soon as I mention what I need painted the tone of convesation changes. Even people I've shown the kit to don't seem to know how they would go about the task of painting it.

 

[Dyops TLJ FOTK Build (Jimmiroquai)]

I cheated and got mine from Teresa (geeky pink) and they were a perfect fit straight out the packaging. My next step is resizing the parts too so I'll be watching with interest how you get on
