Jealous of your concert troop. I still haven't done one of those and really want to. Awesome about the little Darman's pouch!! It's not cheap but it really is well made and beautiful.

I've got this guy on my desk in front of me right now. He's a beauty. Seems to be an ROTJ armor that's lightly weathered, ANH bucket, black pauldron, and that big fancy gun. BFG seems integral to the costume as he's never without it.

congratulations!!!

I just saw this template and thought a MadeMeSmile meme was worth doing. stay shiny, fellow TKs.

That's a thing of beauty. I should attempt to print one...

In other news, I miss trooping.

Good job James!!! Momentum is the important thing. Keep it up! I've missed one day working out since around mid December of last year. Momentum keeps me going. Morning stretches really help me in getting into the gym too. This getting old stuff is strange.

Those who have bought a scope from Brian @Bulldog44 will understand. Just... wow. What a package.

and lastly A+ props for that Drake TK photoshoop @Morgi

The game reference also has a LOT more space between the bumps than the regularly-used shoulder straps do. The whole white panel has a lot more presence than a re-heated shoulder strap. 5 bumps worth of shoulder strap would be pretty dinky and stubby. 7 bumps worth gets closer to the game dimensions. And I'd be remiss if I didn't note that the 3D print files made by @Eric Ostendorf have a *killer* 5 bump strip included. Nice spacing between the bumps and everything.

https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/113-advanced-tactics/ EIB and Centurion stuff is in here. You obsess over the CRL and photos required, then get someone to take said photos whilst you repeatedly refer to the photo sheets and yell at them for not noticing your shoulder bells weren't quite aligned. But seriously, to me, it's really satisfying having armor that's as accurate as it can possibly be. Not at all a requirement, just a fun thing for those of us wired that way.

Weathering is required for EIB, but not mentioned for basic approval. I would assume you can get approved with it as is. My personal preference is to weather immediately though. The shapes are so basic... it really comes to life with weathering. Looks more like a used trooper pack than a grouping of CG shapes (not an offense intended at yours, but of all HWT packs). Your pack is looking great!!! Got the straps done? That part took me nearly as long to get right as the rest of the pack.

Congratulations @Sly11

Congratulations @Sly11

BRILLIANT!!!

I mean, February is shorter. There's no way it can also hold 500 of the things. We need a 500 memes pin.

My butt plate has no return edge, so there's no weak spots to crack. Flat ABS bends very nicely. I haven't had any problems with it at all.

Clearly a sitting tutorial is needed. I can add my own pix to it also @Morgi

-edit- wow, that's tiny. It says @Doggydoc @Nairy

I finally got to use this template!

You need to use a third party photo hosting service. The forums don't have much space for uploading.

Master @Morgi taught me the ways. Basically the trick is in the chest-to-ab strapping. Make it elastic so that you can get the chest plate to overlap the ab instead of choking you out at the throat and you're most of the way there to sitting. Add some good mobility cuts to the thighs and shins and you're pretty much there.

OMG @Morgi so many memes! I couldn't help it
