All the best with this Steve....

Thanks Guys, I could not have done it without the support of this amazing place... FISD totally rocks!!! Terrell, please use the following piccy... Many thanks again Guys.... Shiv

Hey Steve, good to hear from you buddy, or should I say TK6631 Time to start trooping.....

TK4235 - reporting for duty... Sir

cheers Gary....strike whilst the imperial iron is hot....

No worries Daz, hijack away... Gentlemen, i stuck the lid on top of a lamp and this is how the pics have come out. Believe it or not, this bucket has shade 3 dark green lenses.... the lamp/flash on y camera kinda makes them look yellow... Perhaps I should take the pcs in normal sunlight?

Hey Billy, will do..... I see what your mean now about the colour of the lenses.... will find a lamp and do the colour test... Hopefully the TK number isn't far off...... Can someone nudge the 501st HQ for me.....

Cheers Mark....

Certainly, lenses are flat shade 3 dark green from the one and only Smitty... Looking at my piccy they look bubbled but they are not. They just have a curve to them to fit the countour of the eyes. I also have a shade 5 dark green which are way too dark..... Anything else, let me know...... thx

Thanks Mark..... Still need to loose a few pounds though.... lol, then i'll be more comfortable..... it's all that Guiness... ... evil stuff...

Hi Paul The hovis are actually movie accurate one, my picture is just a bad one.... i'll post up a better picture.... Does this look ok... maybe th angle is not a good one, but the hovis are angled slightly on the end, i then painted them 2 tone and added the mesh....

the UKG cleared me last night and I figured I may aswell put the request in at the same time for EIB. I've been a member of FISD forum for a few months and let's face it, it's the place to been seen and be known in our Imperial universe....I'm just waiting for my TK number to come through from the 501st HQ so hopefully that's just a formality.. Can't wait to go on my first induction event in the UK.. We get fed too many Fish and Chips and of course drink Guiness

Cheers FBJ...

Cheers buddy... all the best to you too... I'm just waiting for my TK number now from the 501st command HQ, they say it could take up to 3weeks... jeeez... I'll be weathering the blaster on Friday so may update my pics then... Post those pics when you get a chance.... cheers Shiv

Hi Guys Well i finally finished the helmet.... Here it is in all it's glory..... enjoy..

Looking good buddy, here mine at the moment...

Congrats dude, take your time, don't rush it.... and aim for that Elite Status.....

Thanks Alex.... It was nerve racking filing those teeth at he correct angle and then putting paint to plastic.... I was in a Hobbycraft shop for over 30mins just looking at the correct paint brushes to buy.... Anyway, i'm nearly there..... just have to paint the black border around the ears, put on the ear stripes (still deciding), mesh the frown and cut/mount my welders shield for the lens and then do the hovis... Then it's taking a few pictures and submitting them to my local GML for clearence..... Oh once done, then it's over here for EIB status as I have everything in place for that.....

Ian, you'll be fine buddy.... there are many good tutorials on this site.... Follow them religously and you'll be fine.... OK Guys, here's the vocoder... what a pain it was to paint that.. :shock: Anyway, here's what i've done..... Just the hovis to do now.... yeah Oh and the blaster....

Well, it looks like it's a black mark on the end then...... Just painted the vocoder this evening....... boy oh boy..... it's not easy to do.... Will post up a pic later....
