The Anonymous Egyptian's ESB Armour build! (ATA Kit)


Recommended Posts

I'm considering doing like a YouTube series on the build? Like the process and whatnot. It wouldn't be a tutorial as such, rather a compilation of what it's like to build stormtrooper armor for the first time and whatnot.

Can never have too many tutorials in my opinion. That said, remember some peeps will follow your build to the letter, correct and incorrectĀ  ;)

14 months? Wow! I've had my 1st TK cleared, converted a CfO TK to shock trooper, built a centurion RWA kit and almost finished an RS ESB kit in that time :D <br>

I respect your patience :)

Not 100% required but most shoes have 'some sort' of coating, or finish. If this isn't removed - or at least roughed-up - then the white paint won't adhere very well and will flake easily. I know that's kinda screen accurate but - personally - I like nice white boots ;)

Right, I see. Would nail varnish remover work?

Yes but they usually have a dye in. Ā This will be fine for the boots but don't use it to make ABS paste if you need to as it will be the wrong colour!

You can get neet acetone in small bottles from the pharmasist or a bigger one from a beauty suppliers, Ā Sallys is reasonably common and who I usedĀ http://www.sallyexpress.com/page/storelocator/Ā The bigger bottles are much better value.
