  1. It came today, a big, sexy box of raw, ATA abs armor!! I'm going to start asap. I'll try and post as many pics as I can to see if I can put a step by step guide together. I have 2 troops this week so I will hopefully get started tomorrow. I plan to have it done and approved for my 2 Weird Al concerts I am Trooping on May 4th and 6th!!

  3. i have been experimenting with different methods of painting helmet details,, though i prefer using my airbrush, i know that a lot of people don't own one so i made up this tutorial on painting helmet details with common spray-paints and masking tape with minimal bleed one of the disadvantages of using spray paints over an airbrush is the bleed. an airbrush can apply super thin controlled coats and does not soak the areas you paint.. spray can paints tend to cause bleeding because they are applied too thick and the viscosity can not be altered like airbrush paints.. this method i discovered seems to help eliminate 99% of the bleeding.. by applying a clear primer before adding the paint it essentially seals most of the gaps in the masked off areas making it harder for the paint to "leak" under your masking tape (you will always get some bleed with any type of spray-paint) the trick is to eliminate as much as you can tips to eliminate paint bleed 1: always use good quality masking tape (do not use dollar store or no-name brands) 2: use a round edge tool to press down all the masked off edges (like the back side of a artist paintbrush) make sure it is plastic or wood so you don't scratch up your bucket 3: make sure you thoroughly cover areas that you don't want to paint... never skimp on the masking tape (more is better) 4: temperature is important!! try to paint on a cool day or night (heat makes most paint thinner and more likely to bleed) if it is a really hot sunny day find a shaded area to paint.. do not paint inside, you will get dizzy MATERIAL LIST 1: masking tape (i used normal 3M masking from wal-mart but automotive masking works best) 2: plastic grocery bags 2-3 3: exacto knife or razor blade 4: pencil (with eraser) 5: small paint brush 6: transparent plastic primer 7: black, gray and blue spray-paint 8: small artists easel or helmet stand (just something to hold the helmet up) here is the vids of painting an ATA helmet... Enjoy! photos of the finished helmet (i used a normal pencil eraser to easily remove the small bleeds that i got) also not the color in the photo looks darker than it actually is.. we have no sunlight in Maine lol
  4. Ok i was wondering what helmet you think i should go with i have a 24"/61cm head its pretty big. Im looking to get a helmet which when assembled i wont have to do a 90 degree turn, without having to trim too much off the helmet but have it match the ata abs color? I have been searching the forums and have been getting a bunch of different answers. Oh and also on the cheaper side like 150 being highest. Thanks alot for your time just would hate to spend the money on a helmet and have it not look right or just not fit. From what i heard/read it looked like my two main options were efx and rt, but would like to hear other peoples opnions.
  5. Hello! I have bougth a tk kit from ATA,and i wonder if the tube to the Thermal Detonator is included in the kit ? Some say yes,some say no.. I havent got it yet,but i know it was sent to the 13 Dec :-D Thank you :-)
  6. Using the ATA armor is it easier to do ANH STUNT or ANH HERO. I was planning on doing ANH HERO primarly due to the wider selection of 501st approved weapons. Though if it is easier to do the stunt ill just go with that and wait a long time till i can get the E11 blaster. Thanks for any comments ahead of time.
