JTKenobi's AP


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I just wanted to say THANKS to everyone here for all the great advice over the past several months. I don't think I could have done this without Dave's videos, Troopermaster's advice, Bigturc's photos, as well as all the other great tips that you all gave me. I think my first 30 posts were just questions. Haha. I hope I can be of help to others down the road!

I have some minor things to do like paint the screws securing the ammo pouch by the knee as well as some mods to the bucket and hand-plates, but I am basically ready to troop!

 

So, without further ado, here is my completed armor. I will be taking better photos eventually but this is what we came up with for now....

My compliments to you John!!

Now, get that Elite status before me .. it'll kick me to send some pix to get it approved myself!

 

Hey Guys. Thanks so much for the compliments. So you can't tell that I am sucking in my belly? Great! (I am):P

 

Anyway I am off to Taiwan tomorrow to visit my wife's family for Chinese New Year so that should be pretty cool. Yummy food and no work for a week!! If anyone wants to see any specific photos of my set up, I'd be happy to post pics when I get back.

 

Thanks again for all the kind words guys. :D

 

 

 

And BTW - What do I need to do to get access to the 501st boards??

You need to be 501st approved .. just go fill out the form on the 501st.com site .. then, make sure to send the proper photos and you should be approved in no time!

 

After that, you just sent a message in the 501st access request threads and you'll be all set!

 

Good job again!

I realize I wasn't quite clear in my post. I meant the 501st-only boards on whitearmor.net. Sorry :( I've since received a pm on it so I should be able to figure it out. Thanks though Alain!

I know, Jez asked me if he could pull the picture of my helmet, I said yes of course .. but then, he pulled all the pictures from my album!

I was quite surprised to see them all there :)) But I'm really proud to be part of his site ;)

 

Ha! I'm famous now!!!
