We’re spoiled with armour makers nowadays. There’s some quality stuff around. Tony’s link should get you on the right path.

Very, very nice. You must be thrilled with how it’s turned out. :-) Edit : “turned out” sounds like luck - you’ve done a really solid job, so I’ll rephrase to “must be thrilled with what you’ve achieved”. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good job, Trooper. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hehe. I always felt like you were watching over my build - turns out, you actually were!! Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

(Hehe - #Legoflagpoles) Really like you power cylinders, Mark. Very neatly done. It’s not too late to shape the backplate of the power cylinders, if you wanted too. I did the same as you, fitted the wires at the back etc., then Tino kindly mentioned the possible backplate adjustment (which I’d totally forgotten to do). I carefully shaped mine with a Dremel sander, coming in from the front end to avoid damage to the wires. IF you accidentally caught the wires, they could either be repainted or classed as weathering. Personally, I was inspired by Tino’s and lightly roughed up the wires to show a little red, as seen on the trooper behind Leia. (Not overly clear in this pic, but can be seen on a big screen). Scope is looking great, too. As Tino mentioned, don’t forget the replacement screws from your pack. They really add to the piece. Best wishes, Dan

Hehe - hadn’t thought of that. Maybe my next project. Erm....it’s like you have CCTV in my brain!! 10 points to Tino. i have one extra mod planned too. I’ll keep that for next time.

Wow, Greg! That looks superb! Hard to believe that’s your first time kitting up - looks more like a Centurion application. BTW - lovely job on your lid. Great paint job, plus I really like the ears. Top job!

I might be up to something... But what could it be. ;-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep, no worries, Paul. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Apologies mate - I read it as scope, not stock. As you have done, very neatly might I add, no need for spade bits for the stock. Great progress. Wayne. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Spade bits and vacuum cleaner at the ready.

Great work, Wayne. Re the front sight, you could pad that out with green stuff if you wanted. Whilst mine is far from perfect, I added green stuff to mine, then sanded it to the shape and size required. :-)

Hi team, So, it’s 11:35 GMT and I’ve reached my reactions limit again. If I’ve counted correctly, I’ve reacted to 10 things today. Cheers, Dan

Great work, Matt. Lovely and even between elbow and wrist gaps. Top job.

Hehe - of course, I only jest. Your kit is incredibly comprehensive and doesn’t really need additions. As you say, a straw or many other small, pole like objects would do the trick. However, as you’ve probably guessed, I have easy access to lots of Lego and play-doh! (Thank you, children) Hehe

Wise words, Timberwoof. Welcome to the ranks.

Good job, Alban. Another great looking trooper added to the EIB ranks.

Wow - that’s a great list of positive events, Jim. Happy belated birthday, and well done for the troop and Aker wins.

Hmmm.... 22:10 GMT and I can now “like” things again. Same day, within 24hrs. I’ll report back if this problem occurs again. Dan

Although my sheriff’s badge has not arrived yet, [), you’ve got my vote. Great work, Greg. That’s a lovely looking lid. (P.s. sorry for adding to your workload)

Awesome! Looking great, trooper.

Hi Steve, Indeed - I’d been liking a few things during the morning (GMT), then noticed the message this afternoon. Thanks Dan

Looks great, Tom. Is that wireless transmitter for your Tramp? (FYI, I can “like” things again)

The guard certainly looks fine. Lighting not great on the sight itself - probably fine but post some more angles when you can. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow - looks like you’ve separated the front sight parts really neatly.
