KarinOlava Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 (edited) To show that also girls can be TKs with big guns! Hi, I'm Karin and I can't wait to be a badass Stormtrooper with a BFG! So, yes.. picked up my big brown box today! Haven't really done anything yet, other then to marvel at it^^ As everyone seems to lay the armor on their bed for first pictures, I shall be no different! Right after this I had to run to work. Actually leaving the armor I was falling in love with for 9 hrs 9 hrs later.. Got rubber gloves and handguards from Karin, and some tkboots! And last my Sci-Fire MG-34, soon to be a DLT-19 <3 well.. there we go will try my best to take some pictures during the build - Karin^^ Edited November 18, 2011 by tkrestonva Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinSivertsen[501st] Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 Great! Can't wait to follow this thread. I'm just waiting for my vacationmoney and I'm starting down the same road myself, and hopefully TM has an armor available in the not too distant future...

Why thank you Mathias^^ I'm looking forward to seeing this built up. Just remember to take your time and enjoy the build, and take lots of pics along the way Will do! Looking forward to starting, but a bit scared aswell. Mostly worked with fabric, so this will be a challenge. Good thing I have awesome people i can ask for help! And thank you everyone else! I'll try to remember to take some update pictures along the way. Edited June 4, 2011 by Acima Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinSivertsen[501st] Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 Did you have to pay VAT and customs fees on the package? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarinOlava Posted June 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 Chicks as Stormtroopers - so cool! Agreed! A shame there is so few of us though :/ If you have Locitus on board, you are set. His build was superb I know I'm very lucky that my local garrison has such awesome members that are willing help me. Did you have to pay VAT and customs fees on the package? That I did. Was expecting it, so didn't really come as a shock to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarinOlava Posted June 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 (edited) Some short progress here.. but should speed up as I've now started on my holiday break and will be attending an armor party tomorrow Trimmed, just need to sand down the edges a bit to make them less sharp. All done with my little lexan scissors. These are awesome for trimming! And my little box of leftover abs shrapnel. Also, got my second DLT today, a doopydoo. Made a post comparing the hyperfirm and doopydoo in the blaser section if you would like to see. - Karin Edited June 10, 2011 by Acima Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billhag Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 All done with my little lexan scissors. These are awesome for trimming! Karin Yerrp, Pete-Stukatrooper opened up an whole new way of doing things when he brought these Bad Boys in to the trooping World, I never use anything else I'm Just finishing off this TM for a new guy in our Garrison and it was totally trimmed using nothing but Lexan's, and I'll be doing the same for the one that I'll be starting straight after. It's like a TM conveyer belt in my house at the moment As others have said, you're doing a brilliant job and it's looking really good just take your time and if you get stuck with anything just ask and we'll all jump in to help you mate.
