ATA armor build in progress


Recommended Posts

Finished up my build on New Years Eve! Did some tweaks over the last couple of days after walking around in it for awhile.  Today I filled out my 501st app and sent my pics off to my local Garrison. Looking forward to joining the ranks that you all deservedly serve in! Happy New Year!!! (yes, my TD/O2 canister is off centered)

Congrats on a well deserved achievement, Aaron, and welcome to the ranks!  In case you weren't notified by the 501st, you are now required to do the "Stormtrooper shuffle"...   :dancing-trooper:

Congratulations! Well deserved, and wow, that approval was fast. I was sleepless for a few days waiting for the 501st to stop watching the movie and hit accept.

 

Thank you! Yeah I did not expect it to happen all within hours of my submission! I would have been sleepless as well.

I bought a TK Mannequin and set it up this week.  It's a few inches taller then me so my armor fits a little different on it.  All in all I'm impressed with how it looks.  It's the first time I've been able to view my armor fully assembled without me being inside of it!  I'm not sure how long my wife will let me keep it up though, lol. You get this weird feeling like it's going to move because it feels like somebody is in it! I could sit and stare at this all day!
