Adon Rai Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Hi everyone, This is my very first post here, so hello to you all and I apologize in advance if this is the wrong place etc etc. For a long time I have wanted to get my own armour. I cannot decide whether I want to make a TFA Trooper armour, Clone trooper or Boba Fett. However, I have absolutely no idea where to start and found your site by reading up on google. So I was just wondering if anyone could point in the right direction to get started or even give me some tips on how to achieve something of at least a decent standard for a newbie. Many thanks And May the force be with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starsaber25[Admin] Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Hi Ash and welcome. You have made your first big accomplishment by finding this forum. Please take your time and have a look around. This is a very active detachment. We can help you here if you choose a TFA armor. If you go with a bounty hunter or clone trooper then Scott already pointed you in the right direction. Please keep in mind that TFA armor is hard to come by at the moment and carries a high price tag. Good luck and have a look around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for replying guys, its especially nice that 501st members have replied (you guys are incredible and had the pleasure of meeting a few at a local SW convention a few weeks a go, my son even had his picture with them, he was a 2 yr old Kylo Ren minus the mask at the time as he was getting grumpy) Thank you for the tips, I'll read some of the suggested material and go from there.

DarkTrooper[TK] Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Classic Stormtrooper armor = $$ Clonetrooper armor = $$$ First Order Stormtrooper armor = $$$$? Boba Fett full costume = $$$$$ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
