Coil requesting preapproval review (TM ANH)
CableGuy replied to Coil's topic in Request TK Pre-Approval
Hiya. Have to echo the others. Great looking armour, and fits you really well. The only thing I’d add, which could be a lighting thing, but it looks like there might be some return edge left on the main belt. As per the ref pic, ideally there should be only a small gap between the top and bottom of the belt boxes. I’ve seen that mentioned in either EIB or Centurion so might be worth bearing in mind. :-) Again, great build!! :-) Best wishes, Dan Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
The 'yellow' trooper renovation -WIP
CableGuy replied to CableGuy's topic in Assembly, Mods, and Painting
Many thanks, Mike. I kinda blame you for this. Saw your painting videos and thought, “that’d be fun”. Less than a year later and I’m a UKG Stormtrooper!! (All meant on the nicest way!) :-) Best wishes, Dan. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
E11 Blaster pipe build with lights and sound
CableGuy replied to welshchris77's topic in ANH BlasTech E11
Wow. Nice work. I’m only viewing on my phone at the moment but, from what I can see, you’ve finished them really nicely. :-) Impressive amount of electronics squeezed in there, too. Great job. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Hiya, Just a fitting thing, I think. With the calves open, you can get your hand in and attach the poppers, then fasten the calves. Very difficult to do that at the front. The Velcro is a bit easier at the front - line up the shin and push it against the boot. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

ANH - Blaster on the left hand or right hand?
CableGuy replied to Ripper_L's topic in General Weapons Discussion
A couple of friends and I watched the Original Trilogy back-to back yesterday. I always had a feeling ANH and ESB were (mainly) lefties, then ROTJ went right. However, it appears that the majority of ‘set pieces’, rather than action scenes, the troopers are primarily lefties throughout all three films. I get the feeling that ‘force of habit’ kicked in for some of the action sequences and, as you would if you’re right handed, some blasters were in the right. I know that there are some exceptions to the rule but, as per pic below, the big, staged scenes are primarily left. Personally, this encourages me to troop as a lefty, just to bring that extra level of detail to the character as that how I believe they were “intended”. Don’t get me wrong, though - I’m not judging the righties - this is just my personal preference. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Hi mate. I also had twisting shins. The options I’d heard about were: Popper on back of boot Velcro on front of boot So, I went for both. ;-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hiya, Personally, my opinion would be that RS Prop Masters and Troopermaster are some of the nicest kits I’ve seen. (I also love my RWA armour, BTW). :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

CableGuy replied to hollowbodies's topic in ANH Build Threads
Yes, I was very pleased to have those videos to study. :-) Certainly sounds like you’re on the right track by studying other AP builds. And, as you said, just ask lots of questions and the folks here will point you in the right direction. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Congrats on your new arrival. Looking forward to your build.
