While I was waiting though, I got my hands on a Rubies E11 to just start playing around and work on some plastic / building skills. I read up on some mods and options, and ended up with a pretty reasonable first try. - drilled out holes - added internal PVC barrel - ground out scope rails - drilled out strap holes (front and back) - puttied seams and filled screw holes - added clay inside handle, back, and barrel to add some weight - did a bit of weathering (not great, but hey...) Pics aren't great, but there you go. - Lance

Well kiddos - here we go. My name is Lance, and I'm in Austin, TX. Been lurking a while and telling myself how cool it would be to be a TK and troop with the 501st. Finally pushed "Place Order" a few months ago and finally got my BBB. Ordered from Anovos and they said it would be here after the New Year so I figured I had some time to get more educated, get some stuff ready, and dive in when the box got here. Well, they freaked me out and sent it within around a month. So, I've been scrambling to get myself ready for the 'first cut'. I've been pouring over build threads, tips, hints, pics, etc. and talking to a friend of mine here in Austin, TK 42113. I think I'm ready to finally pull the trigger. I'll be posting pics here as I progress. Any and all comments, input, suggestions, etc. are welcome! - Lance
