Daetrin[Admin] Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 I took part in a book shoot for an upcoming LFL project. Can't say more, but I was allowed to keep the test shots. Some came out nice. Standard Shot I want YOU for the Vader's Fist! Obligatory SE-14R shots Stop that ship! Blast 'em! Oh wait, wrong movie Nothing beats a crew-served weapon All proceeds that I earn are earmarked for a new backdrop for the garrison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluehickey Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 That's freakin' awesome! You look terrific too! Can these images be used for FISD purposes as well, or are they the sole property of Lucasfilm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted March 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 They are the sole property of me, so FISD can use them for anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK bondservnt[501st] Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 great shots! only question I have is that the holster looks like it has Tan loops over the belt? shouldn't it be all black loops? maybe those just have tan sides... but it's really standing out! was the only thing I noticed!

Daetrin[Admin] Posted March 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 One thing to notice is that most TE derived armor has different length legs. If you note the right is longer than the left. This isn't so much an issue for shorter troopers it seems, but for us taller guys makes it challenging to adjust the thighs to look right. Also I used RT shins painted to match as the TE2 ones are just too small on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daetrin[Admin] Posted March 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Honestly I'm just the model. I can't build armor anywhere near this well. All credit goes to: Armor Make: mostly TE2 with ATA ab plate, RT shins, Mike A. ab plate button decals, TKittel belt Built by: TK4205 (RT did the shins though) Helmet Make: TE2 with Mike A. decals & Keith hovis Built by: Mike A. * I used the John Danter hand plates for the actual shots, but these test shots are TE2 snowie handplates.

Daetrin[Admin] Posted March 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 I'm sure I could if I clear out the wife and kids for a few weekends and have an empty house I could do it. I built my first TK, converted it to a TD, and built my first pack. And, I even modded several suits. But with my kids being small...I barely have enough time to troop on weekends as it is. :-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
