  1. Nice one I hadn't thought of that before.
  2. Congrats on making EIB Tom, glad to have you in the ranks!
  3. Congrats on making EIB trooper!
  4. Thanks for posting that up Tom! i'll have to check if they have a location close to me. Oh and congrats on making EIB!
  5. That looks pretty awesome! I might have to pick one of those up.
  6. The snap system and elastic might be hard where you are at unless there are local fabric stores around. If that is the case, both should be readily available at that type of store. You can also look here: http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/store/p...ts/3631-00.aspx When installing the snap system you are going to have to make snap plates. Here is a great tutorial on how to make them. http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?show...;hl=snap+plates Hope this helps.
  7. Congrats Johnny. Ed Karl posted pics from your wedding. Looks like everyone who attended had a blast.
  8. You are also going to need to get some ab buttons for you suit. VaderDave on here can help you out with that.
  9. I couldn't agree more. Kiel you armor looks a lot better. I think Smitty is right on focusing on your armor before you change out your helmet. Also putting the decal over the stripe is what I would suggest as well. You can get decals for your helmet here: http://members.cox.net/appstronaut/tk4510_decals.html Mike and his family are on vacation until the 26th of this month. He should be able to help you out when he returns from vacation. I think the lenses on your helmet need to be changed out for something a little darker, Smitty can help you out there.
  10. Tom that blaster turned out really well. You really have your suit dialed in.
  11. That price is outrageous for that helmet. The most someone should charge for that is like $150 max including the shipping, even that might be too high.
  12. Yes it is, I didn't say anything in my first post because it was pink. LOL
  13. Great screen caps of the muzzle flash and ejected cartridges.
  14. LOL that’s funny. I ask my girlfriend (soon to be fiancé) if she wanted a pink TK helmet and she laughed and said no. I would totally make one for her thought if she wanted one.
  15. Looking great! The under armor logo has to go and the butt plate split needs to be visible.
  16. Looking good, the only thing I saw that might need to be changed is the ab buttons.
  17. This should get rid of any fine scratches. http://www.skygeek.com/7030.html
  18. I just got the same memo today Chris! I love that movie.
  19. That's a lot of posts boss! Thanks for starting this place, my armor wouldn't look like it does today if I hadn't found this place. Cheers!
  20. The nomex glues would be fine. That's what I use. For cutting if you can get your hands on an exacto knife that works the best for me. The score and snap method works the best for me. I used it on some of my stormtrooper suit and did nothing but that method on the clone that I am currently working on. Can you get your hands on a rivet gun? If you can, you can get that sniper knee plate on in a few minutes. No worries about the belt mate, we'll help you out as much as well can with your armor adventures. I wish I had found this place before I bought my first set of armor and assembled it, it would have saved me a lot of extra work.
  21. Kiel, as I said in your other thread you are going to need to trim a lot on your kit. I think you can trim a little off the bottom of the shoulder bells. You can open the biceps and bring them in a little more. I think you are definitely going to have to trim the chest and back plate you can do a search on here for the chest mod tutorial. You’re going to need to add the sniper knee plate to your left leg piece. In addition, the belt should go around the back of the kidney/butt plate. I am sure this sound a little over whelming right now but we are all here to help you with your armor mods.
  22. Great job on your armor Pablo! Can't wait for your EIB submission!
  23. Looks good. Welcome aboard 2155!
  24. Awesome Pablo. Your armor looks great on you! Can't wait to see your EIB submission!
