TK-1287

Any idea how long shipping takes for barnstompers?? I ordered my boots about a month ago and still no arrival, I think I'll e-mail them at the end of the week if they don't show up.

Edit: Mixed up Gino and TE for a second.

I registered there a while ago, I've never been on it though. By the looks of it, I could be banned for even posting there, haha.

I picked up a bottle of that plastic weld, and so far it's making some awesome results on my armour. My biceps are almost done!! They look so professionally made, haha.

Once you go airbrush, you can never use a rattlecan and feel good about yourself again, haha

I've been airbrushing Boba Fett armour for years, and no matter how complex of a paintjob Boba Fett has, a stormtrooper will always be harder. Any blemish on the stormtrooper, you will notice, you have to prime it perfectly, sand it perfectly, coat it perfectly. These things can be ignored on Boba, and even add to the image.

The frown, ears, and vocoder have been painted. All that I need to do to the helmet now are to paint the stripes on the ears, install the lenses, and install the frown mesh. After this comes pics of the armour The armour is about 90% trimmed, I just need to first start learning to work with this modeling iron!!

Helmet is just about done! I just need to paint the frown, vocoder, ears, add pinstriping around the ears, install the lenses, and install the frown mesh. Then I'm all done with this majour piece of the puzzle which is the ESB Stormtrooper!!

That has an awesome emerald look!

For the Boba Fett community, we usually pick them up online.

All done trimming the teeth and ears. The ears lay perfectly flush, I will paint the frown, vocoder, and ears when I get home Plus I need to lay the decals!

1. I didn't prime it. 2. It sticks extremely well to the plastic. 3. Doesn't smell after 3 days, haha.

I decided to start on my helmet today. I trimmed the thighs last night but pics will come later. For the inside of the helmet, I coated it with Plasti-Dip, what you coat tools with, it gave the inside a fantastic rubbery finish. After I let that dry overnight, I started trimming out the eyes, I made sure to use a brand new razor blade trimming them out, I believe I captured the ESB look pretty well.

Oh yeah, I found some Plasti-Dip, so you can rip all of that stuff out now

Oh yeah, I've studied his tutorial I also purchased a modeling iron too! None the less, I'm not too worried, Boba Fett is probably 20 times more gut wrenching than this thing is, haha.

I've put together so many FX suits it's not even funny, and I've trimmed several FettPride suits of Boba armour, so I think I should be able to handle this

Armour has arrived. Only problem, no upper backplate!! I sent AP an e-mail asking him to give me the missing piece, I'm not in too much of a hurry, I still have all of this to trim!!

Just finished up the front sight.

I'm glad I got AP I'm so tiny. The reason I ordered AP is for the substance. I feel extremely comfortable about the ABS plastic over the HIPS. However, I must admit I had PayPal ready to give away all of my funds for that TE2 Lite suit, haha.

Little update since my armour is stuck in Ohio due to snowstorms, my leather neckseal with bib came in today made by our very own Riveting

Not really. Just find an available number, send it to your GML, and she can fix it instantly. Once she marks you as Ready For Duty, you'll have your application processed in 2-3 days. I recommend finding 2-3 numbers, just in case the number you select gets appointed to another trooper during your process.

Edited with Accurate Information: LEGION MEMBERS TOTAL APPROVED: 6636 TOTAL APPROVED and ACTIVE: 4325 TOTAL APPROVED and INACTIVE: 1902 So with TK NEGATIVE 1, and TK-0000, that's a grand total of 10,001 numbers 10,001 - 6,636 3,365 available TK numbers.

I ended up to redo the Rear Sight greeblie. Old one is on the top, new one is on the bottom.

I'd order 2' to be safe, however, I ordered 6' and they sent me 8', haha. Once I put together my bucket, I'll just give away the leftovers.

I started working on the little clip Greeblies, I should post pictures when I finish them up tonight
