  1. Welcome, Looking forward to watching this thread
  2. looking really good there, I followed Ukswrath thread. I went with the Humbrol paints for the plates.
  3. good luck, looking forward to seeing the finished armor.
  4. completed my TD, I used my Dremel to grind down the ends so that I could get the TD down to 7.25 inches. I painted the tube in Gunship Grey Testor #1923 (spray paint) picked it up at Hobby Lobby. I found the black pan head screws in my father-in-law's workshop so didn't have to paint them at all. I started to paint the Ab Plate and found there is a difference on the Gray paint, the Testors #1138 is very light compared to Humbrol #5 below you can see the difference.
  5. so exciting opening it up. good luck on the kit.
  6. Great work and loved the build thread, Congrats on getting approved.
  7. looking good there, I was looking at doing this just to get basic approval and then moving over to the Kittle Belt.

  15. how is the building doing? any new photos to share?
  16. it's been a week since I started this topic. thanks from everybody here who welcomed me. in the evening I have been working on my kit, here is a couple of photos of what I have done to this point. I finished the hand plates from the kit, I cut them down to half the return of what was in the marked lines here is the biceps. the forearms working on the shins now.
  17. lots of great information you put into the thread. how long did you take from start to finish on this project?? any finished photos???
  18. as I was researching everything I could on building a stormtrooper, I found that the lead times were up there especially with Anovos, then a post was put up in my garrison 2 weeks ago that a user who just received his Anovos brown box and after waiting 9 months had lost interest. so i answered the post and drove up from tiny Rhode Island up to New Hampshire that weekend to pick it up alone with TK boots that were exactly my size and a resin E-11 blaster. I am following ukswraths forum and themaninthesuitcase and watched TK-1636 on youtube. here are some photos of how I have progressed so far. I have trimmed about 70 percent of the pieces here is what I still need to cut. have a question on the handplates do they need to have so much return on them. appreciate any tips on building the kit.
