Making your officers and elite troops stand out from the crowd only does one thing, Identify the high profile targets for the snipers.

Yes a Rom FX runs on both 9 and 12volts Ok take two of the battery clips and join the red from one to the black from the next. That daisy chains that set in series. Take the third battery clip and solder the red from it on to the red from the joined two and the black end to the black of that set too. The first two that you soldered together red to black, go on the batter packs, the third onto your RomFX. DO NOT clip in two 9volt batteries onto this set up, that will give you 18volts and blow up your voice amp. Cheers. DesTROYer

Im just going to reply me, me, me each time i see you open this thread Nathan. Me me me

If you dirty up and modify your TK armor to TD, you can no longer keep the TK designation either, unless you can easily change back and forth. TK = clean, TD = Dirty Dirty TK's are not TK's or TD's until the ab and sniper plates are put on, Pouldren and Pack are donned and BFG acquired.

Should AP and others be concerned now that MR has released the TK helmet? I read somewhere that as soon as a Licenced version was released that LF were more likely to chase counterfit makers down.

OK, Im confused. We can't post Armor makers names in threads so they dont get in trouble. Instead we type in acronyms. Then you start a list in the open forum area so any one who wants to find out who say MC or AP is can look and go "oh look its Authentic Props, lets go sue there an impolite person" I am under no illusionment that Lucasfilm does not already know who AP is anyway, so its a moot point anyway, but still... Do you understand what I mean?

You could try reinforcing it from behind with a two part epoxy, by building up a thick paste behind the dimple. But also I would get on the email to AP and see if they will replace it.

Those Powerful Plasma rifles look like E-11's Still, now that we know they are specialised clone troops who have been bred to destroy, I feel better... not.

Nice work Pal, it looks really good. My display TK is almost finished too, and is already on guard duty in the hall. All he needs now is his new hands to arrive and I am waiting on some white Silicone rubber to make his shoulder straps from. I have the straps that came with the AP, but I just don't think they sit right.

Yeah, on any good close up pic from side on, you can see straight through the frown vents. Nothing there. When it is not new years eve and I have time, I will post up a pic or two.

Nice work Nathan. Keep us posted.

It needs paint and decals... Ok I got nothing, it looks great.

I like the designation FU, as FU is the exact reaction I feel when I think of someone wanting to do it to the tidy whitey Armor. Leave our TK's clean.

That is just so wrong... Oh george why, oh why?

My hall and my Workshop

Here are some of my helmets including the Weathed AP helmet Al helped me out with Tuesday night. Some more shots of the TD helmet THANKYOU SO MUCH TO AL FOR HIS HELP.

I know. The upper arms are upside down. DOH! Thanks Woppo for pointing it out.

OK, I have been both Slack and busy the last couple of months and the TK did kind of take a back seat for a while to getting Snowie finished, The Tusken Started and almost finished and a new job which drained a lot of my time and energy. But I am happy to say, that progress has been made. He's not finished yet, not by far, I still have to finish the legs, and seal up those Joints on the arm. I know they are not supposed to be that wide and that the strip is supposed to be on the outside not the inside, but i was assembling this to fit both me and the mannequin and with my Bulk I needed a little more room. Since then I have decided to make this purely a display piece as it is never going to fit me well enough... ever. I am waiting on some new hands for my mannequin to arrive and need to find some pants for the strapping Lad, but besides that, everything is going to plan. BTW thats a RT mod helmet, the AP helmet that came with he armor is now weathered and dirty on my display case.

I did exactly the same thing today. I think there are enough Plumbs here to fill a punnet if we look hard enough.

It also sounds like a great way to clean up the joins in armor pieces too. My Forarms are not the neatest of jobs, but this should fix it up nicely. Who wants to go seamless? lol

Great report mate. Sounds like you succesfully pulled off operation Shock and awe. Keep up the good work and keep those reports coming in.

ditto to what the rest of the boys have said. If it really annoys you, you can always get some white caulking to seal up the gaps.

All Altmanns Armour is Styrene and from personal experiance with the Scout bucket and Armour, i can defiantly say that it is prone to cracking on the stress points and when a crack starts, there is no way to repair it. I have never dropped my helmet, and don't ever plan too, but if i did I am almost positive a new crack would form if hit on the wrong place, like an edge or corner. However I recently did walk into a Tree recently on a photo shoot (No Tree hugging Scout Jokes guys and gals ok) and no damage was caused. left a nice weathering mark though. But that said, it is a lite helmet, looks great and due to the ability of styrene to be pulled sharper, it is a great medium for making armour out of.

Here are some pics of my weathered Snowie Armor. Chest plate. Pack. and the rest of the hard parts. Just now waiting on my Duster to arrive from the LadyGhst in the States and this one is all done.

OK, whilst the sun was still up I grabbed some more shots. Whats left to be cut out. My all but finished helmet. My a little dirty, Holden VY Commodore SS Ute, which I sometimes refer to as my VY-ST (VY-Scout Transport) and my bucket. The armour trimmed so far. from this picture you can see, the same mold damage on the back plate that has been previously brought up. As you wont see it under the straps, I'm not concerned about it. Thats it for now, except for some of my Snowie Armour shots I will post up in a min.
