  1. Yeah Nate you should! See you over there bud
  2. As darrel said thats all that is required for clearance. Doesnt take long to do or take a lot of effort either. The MR is a solid trooping lid and i love mine, i use it with my FX too.
  3. Bruce u trooper with 3 EIB's on a regular basis bud, just ask me, Aaron or Colin A what u need to do bud If you are Inverness we can have a look over it mate and help u out
  4. Awesome mate, Rustoleum isnt really made for use over here :S
  5. Tom ESB, i already have EIB with ANH Jonathan, i know what you mean buddy. I'm in 2 minds whether to keep them or get rid of them lol Its a gloss Christaan
  6. Been a while so here is some more pics 1st Coat of Halfords Appliance white:
  7. Next up was an under coat of Aluminium spray paint so that when it weathers naturally with use it looks more realistic. This was followed by 3 coats of Halfords Satin Black and then some final detailing on the D-ring and ejection port. Please excuse the dust on the blaster in the photos
  8. Iz glad to hear it buddy, well done!
  9. i agree with the side shims should be white plastic that matches the armour or as close as. Also agree with Scott, anyone lucky enough to be slim that you only have a slight gap should not have to apply this closing. A 6 month period is a fair amount of time to get the materials required and make the required shims.
  10. Iz, good to see you here brother Looks freakin sweet, as i said before i hope you get this through after all the hard work thats gone into it!
  11. Dearmeat thats a good shout buddy looks super comfy
  12. Maybe its just me but they look a lot sharper, great work as always Paul
  13. Congrats bud well deserved!
  14. Hi Brian, I cant send my pm as your inbox is full lol i wonder why? Cheers Mark
  15. The filled in area was sanded back to give it more shape and to remove any imperfections: Now i started to add the Doopydoo's conversion kit minus the counter, i used elastic bands to help hold them in place but on most parts this wasn't really necessary: Now that the T-Tracks have arrived and been trimmed to fit they are attached to the sides of the blaster barrel: A d-ring was made from repair putty (hards stronger than steel so hopefully should withold trooping) and fitted to the rear of the blaster and left to harden: Next an under coat of primer...
  16. Tom, unfortunately mate i think they are the only ones that i know off. Might just be a problem with the postal services. Have you contacted your local post office? I have had several kits from them with no problems except the last one i ordered took several weeks to arrive in th UK. It is a good quality kit but the problem is postal can be a pain in the butt. Give them a shout and see whats up. Only other option would be to build what you need yourself. There might be a few tutorials kicking around here. A think a few guys here have done that themselves, Pete 'Stukatrooper' i think has built a few items from scratch and put up a blow by blow account on his flcker site, but cant remember.
  17. Lid with 1st coat of primer:
  18. Grats Amanda good to see another ESB trooper going EIB
  19. Nate i feel for ya bud. The quality of all those items is shocking. The condition of the helmet in the 1st pics is unbelievable - i mean how can a seller really put that out to someone in good conscience! Just unbelievable what some will try to pass off and expect ppl to just accept that kind of crap!
  20. David this is my hasbro ESB conversion at the moment, got a few pics to put up showing more progress http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?show...mp;#entry109752
  21. Interested in a signed copy as well please
  22. Nice one Matti, looks awesome
  23. Ok so the UK now has a stocker of such paint (Homebase) at quite resonable price and in handy hobby can sizes etc. The question i want to ask my American Brethen (and everyone else who uses it outwith) is which colour do you guys use for spraying your lids and armour? Cheers in advance
  24. Dude its all about the kids. Good luck and thanks
