Update time! So after doing a couple of troops the inevideble happened: One of my bridges went kaput! Luckily it was at home on my little sister's birthday party so it went well with only some tape for the moment. I contacted ATA again and ordered a new pair, and as I was already buying things, I bought some new button panels too for centurion. The new bridges both have pros and cons, they are thicker than the old ones and should be sturdier, but they dont have the same details or shade of white as the old ones: I hope it will go well though, the shade of white shouldn't be that noticable if you're not looking for it. Well, I may be painting the buttons tomorrow. I think I will continue to use this thread as a repair and upgrade thread for later.

I'm going slow, but I have ordered new button panels at the same time as new shoulder bridges. Should arrive soon! I am saving for my next armor though so it will probably be awhile before I start to fix other things.

You can do it Dave! I also see you fixed those shoulderbells, Great!

Wohoo!

Go Dave!

Second birthday troop! Together with Vader again and his son as royal guard, when we arrived, we hid in the garage again and dressed up. Walked out and surprised the party, gave the kid a diploma and lanyard, took some photos and Vader started a treasure hunt for the kids. Some might have been a bit shy or scared to take a photo, but as we were leaving, Vader got many of them to "Hail the Galactic Empire!", fun stuff! On another note, don't know if it's sad or funny; Vader told me later that me and him have had about double the amount of troops than most of the garrison this year. I know there has been a shortage of troops lately but that surprised me a bit. Anyway, troop done! Onto the next!

Cardinal red for Cardinal!

My first birthday troop! It was me together with Vader and TIE from previous troop. We arrived about an hour before the party started and hid in the EOs garage to dress up. When the time came we came out to the imperial march with pizzas in hand, it was a surprise to be sure (but a welcome one) both for the birthday boy w/ siblings and to the guests. We talked a bit, took some photos and gave the kid a birthday diploma and a lanyard from us. The meeting only took 5-10 minutes but it was fun nonetheless, but the best part I think was when we were about to leave was the boy saying: ¨I actually wished that you would visit me...¨ Good times!

Not official, but I want to post it anyway. Surprised a friend who recently finished school by wearing my armor to his celebration at the beach. Here I am on my way, good thing it's only 5 minutes walking away from where I live.

So, today I had a more official TROOP! It was a run (walk) for Hjärtebarnsfonden, it was me and 3 others, including Vader, a TIE and a Royal guard. We walked about 2,5 km (half of the real run) and took some photos. The local newspaper was here too, that was fun! Altough it all only took 45 minutes, it was fun none the less. May update if I get any more pictures.

Maybe you could try imgur? It works pretty well for me

Here we have the recording, maybe not the best but I think it came along fine! (Fixed)

Edit; 17/2-23: I give permission for FISD to repost my photos on social media in an appropriate fashion. Edit; 5/3-23: Please use only the photos where I'm alone though, as I don't know if others want their photos shared. Today was my first (I think official) troop! Well, it was a virtual troop, but it worked anyway! The Nordic Legions (501st, RL, MC) recorded a video for social media for May 4th, there were some technical difficulties but I hope it came out good. It should be out tomorrow or something on Nordic garrison's facebook page, I think. Will share a link when it's out. I'm the trooper between Kylo and the scout, under the other Kylo. Fun times!

We shall see! @Helotech

@Helotech I've said it before and I will say it again, Thank you for inspiring me to start with this build!

Oh, that was you! Haha! That's a nice surprise!

Yes, I was there one of the days.

Congratulation to whoever won!

Got myself an armor bin today!

Touched up the vocoder before putting away the paint:

Jonas Andersson 22423 EIB A4 Joseph Thank you for everything! My pleasure, brother! http://www.whitearmor.net/eib/certificates/22423-eib.png 278

Thank you! It has truely been an honor working with everyone on this project, it glads me that it is so little left to L3! I might take a little break on the armour though, as it has been going on for almost half a year! I WILL come back though, probably when I've worn it a bit more and seen if I could improve things here and there. TK-22423 out!

Here we have some extra photos: Split rivets: Han snap: Buttons, I know as they are separate and not molded into the button panels they don't hold up for centurion. I will probably change them sometime when I can afford new button plates, right now I have very little money and can't afford any new ones. Will be satisfied with EI for now at least. Hopefully those will do!
