CRXPanda[TK] Posted May 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 Thanks guys. I'm off today so hopefully I can try another test fit when my chores are done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRXPanda[TK] Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) My -4.0 goggles arrived! Now I can see out of the bucket. I have contacts, but I dislike them. I wore contacts for 23 years and after going back to glasses, I prefer glasses. I also didn't work well with bifocal glasses or contacts, made my verdigo kick in. Sidenote: I wasn't clear... these will not be seen from the outside. They go on my eyeballs instead of my glasses.

ukswrath[Staff] Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Hey Andi, the goggles look nice however, 501st basic approval requires the lenses to be flat, dark green in color, these look grey. Keep up the great work. Here's some on trooperbay.com >>> http://trooperbay.com/index.php/dark-green-lens-material.html NOTE: http://www.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_anh_stunt Lenses are flat material, green in color, sufficiently dark enough to obscure the costumer's eyes.

CRXPanda[TK] Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) INSIDE the helmet. On my eyeballs. I didn't explain myself... I look like Riddick.. They are swimming goggles so they seem darker in photos than they really are. I'm still wearing them while typing this message.

The helmet is done with the green stuff... see the blog and past posts about it. These are swim goggles with my prescription for use inside the bucket.

CRXPanda[TK] Posted June 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Yup. I had to repair the sniper's cracks again. They got bigger when I heated it. White nail fill worked but you could easily see the difference in whites, so I chose to paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRXPanda[TK] Posted June 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Got email from GML all good except buttons too big. I never rechecked the validity of the ab plate, aside from cutting the cod and repainting the buttons it came with, I left it as is. Got 7/16" buttons tonight. Waiting on paint to dry. I have to take action pics and retake just the front pics according to GML. Tick tock .... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
