Quick update I submitted my photos to my local GML and he had a few corrections for me to fix. I spent some time fixing those issues and resubmitted my photos to my local GML. I received an email today saying he is approving me for 501st approval!! Time for the waiting game! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Checked the mail today and my TD clips from Ukswrath arrived this was the last piece for atleast basic approval into the 501st still waiting on my blaster so I can move to EIB and Centurion Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Remounted my lenses using a technique I saw in the forum. I went to Hobby Lobby and bought one thick black foam sheet and traced my lenses onto it and then cut it out. once cut out I pressed them into the inside of the helmet where the lense will mount and got a good indention so I can cut it out for the lense Then I used Zap a gap and glued the foam pieces inside along the eye opening or ridges.I made two for each side and stacked them and glued them together then very carefully glued the lenses to that. I know I need to re plastidip my helmet now lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just need my Thermal Detonator clips and I can atleast submit for basic approval and then when my blaster arrives I can apply for EIB and Centurion Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My neckseal from trooper bay arrived and my holster only thing I'm waiting is my Thermal Detonator clips and my Doopy Doos E-11 blaster kit . I painted repainted my ab plate buttons because I originally overly painted them way to big and I had the wrong blue paint. The correct blue paint arrived in the mail so I began removing all the old paint by using rubbing alcohol and a old terry cloth. The rubbing alcohol is very safe on the ABS plastic and doesn't ruin the shiney finish like paint thinner and acetone do. I painted the buttons free hand with no masking or stencils.

Today I went to Home Depot to see if I could find aluminum to make some temporary clips for my Thermal detonator just until my clips come in from Ukswrath. I have a 4 day weekend and wanted to take advantage and get my 501st application done. I couldn't find thin enough aluminum so I ended up just buying a 25 Gallon Husky case while I was there. Home Depot did have the 50 Gallon sized Husky Box, but it was like $64 and was freakishly huge, so I settled for the 25 which is more sleek. Everything fits accept the helmet and I have possible room for my blaster when it gets here. This just seems like it would be easier to travel with. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I finally finished the bra hooks for my shins Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After the boots were done I just had to try on the armor again Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After messing up the Thermal Detonator I started on painting my boots. I bought Angelus white leather paint and Angelus finisher for after. Her are some of the progress photos with only a few coats. And here is the finished boots looks pretty good and it was very fast to paint. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Today I went and purchased a PVC pipe to start on my Thermal detonator Long story short is I couldn't get the end caps even and took to much material off of the caps and control panel. I may end up just buying a completed one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
