Congrats TK 22826 and WELCOME!!! You certainly have shown your dedication here and attention to details! The armor really looks like it fits you like a glove! Superb! EIB and Centurion next?

Wow splendid job Tiffany!! Congratulations on reaching Expert Infantry!

Congrats Dave! Great job and welcome to Expert Infantry!!! Sounds like you're going to have a really fun time getting to Centurion, possibly with the help from your friends! Your armor is looking incredible!

To each their own!

For me it is the Humbrol Enamel Matte 109

Time to add another star to the EIB section!

Hello Adrian! Great to hear that you are close to finishing the armor! It's not too late to create a build thread if you want to get some advice, we will happily answer all your questions and give the best advice possible! If you're interested in the higher levels of approval such as Expert Infantry and Centurion, that's a great way of making sure everything is taken care of! https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/82-esb-build-threads/ If you feel that a build thread is not really relevant then a pre-approval thread could be a great way for us to assist you! https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/193-request-tk-pre-approval/ You need to contact your GML for the UKG! Keep up the good work!

Just found an image of what the backside looked like on the canisters we see on the Death Star surface! Thought I'd add it to the topic

You need to get a TK!

Great work Glen! Any chance we could get hold of jpg files for some creations of banners or other things for the detachment? What do you think? I know this is regarding banners but the resource itself would be everything! Super hard finding official background images that we can use

Is it FX?

Hello and welcome Ernesto! It would be helpful with some more images of the parts to determine if it is approvable into the 501st! What maker is it?

Welcome back trooper!

That's hilarous! I knew the memage would begin shortly after the buttplate pick up line

Great success!!!

Hello and grats on your first post Grant! Great to hear that you are scouring Will we get another TKC in the future maybe?

Hello Jonathan! What a sweet sweet name you have! On mobile, I long press the image //// choose "open in a new window" //// then copy the url from the browser. On desktop it is very easy, just "copy image address"! Looking forward to your progress and congrats on the kit!

Good luck Dave!

Great job on that armor Matt!!

Let's go! Can't wait to see what our people come up with!

Yoyo Ed! I have an RS Prop Masters kit and I had no issues whatsoever to see through the Hero lenses that came with my helmet. Although the reason for this was that the lens material was so thin that distortion didn't really happen, and the downside of that was that they were not as dark as they "should have" been. Right now I'm borrowing my bubble lenses from a mate in the Swedish Garrison that are purchased from Troopermaster and there is much more distortion there as the material is thicker, but luckily they have a spot I can see through! I don't ever get dizzy which is a plus but you'll figure that out yourself when you are wearing the helmet for 30-60 minutes straight! An easy way of going about it since their isn't a guarantee that a new helmet from SDS would match the armor you have, would be to just buy a helmet from any maker (RS, TM etc.) and if the shade of the ABS is way off, you could paint the helmet to try and match it as closely as you can! The TK's we see on screen had painted helmets so it wouldn't lose its accurate-ness in that sense I'd proooobably go for an RS kit and build it myself so that I could get every detail right from the beginning since RS don't automatically get every detail right when commisioning one, but you'll at least have a good looking armor that has lineage! Then you also have Troopermaster that has taken measurements from the screen used armor that the RS Prop Masters co-owner Simon owns, and he produces a wonderful armor too! Both of these makers has their pros and cons! Being restless and eager to get things going I'd mooost likely commision a helmet from Troopermaster and try to get a sniper knee plate, thigh ammo strap and ab buttons and a belt "trown in" (A.K.A. purchased) with the order, so you'd have supply of all things you'd need to fix on the SDS armor. Why TM in this case would be because you talk to him directly and he seems to work quickly! RS seems to have long wait times at the moment. When I commisioned my suit in April 2022 I had to wait 12 weeks or maybe more. Welcome!

Hello and welcome Vinny! The help you'll get here from our people is plenty for you to build an armor at level 3 specs! We answer quickly and are eager to help you out every step of the way! If you want you could reach out to your Garrison and try to arrange an armor party with them! Usually it is held at someones place like in a garage or studio but I'm sure you could get a few people in on splitting on the costs to rent a place to be for the day! I'm looking at doing that myself actually and it sure is a great way of getting introducted to the community when you are starting out!

Hehe ok good just wanted to make sure what level of detail we were talking about! Then again if that would slip through, then it would of course be catched if/when they apply for the higher levels!

So people could use white duct tape for the gap for basic approval?
