SKUTCH[TK] Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Hey guys, My TK armor just got approved and I'm hoping to get TK ANH-STUNT Elite status. I constructed my armor as a secret project unbeknowned to my own garrison. I used the specs on the elite page. -used the strip method for construction. -white straps for drop boxes -stunt helmet -flat green lenses (thanks to Smitty!) -d-ring on the hyperfirm added -unattached shoulders Let me know if I need to do anything. Thank you for considering me for Elite status. I hope to serve alongside you troopers. TD/TC-2243 Skutch, ECG, MEPD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperTrooper Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Just need closeups of the helmet to verify the aerators and lenses. Also for your elite profile pic, I need a shot that is evenly lite, the sun and shadow lines make it impossible to photoshop into a SW background. Good job on the armor trooper.

SKUTCH[TK] Posted October 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Will take close up pics tonight. The light sucked. I didn't realize the sun was shining on my legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CureMode[TK] Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Looks great Skutch, we have to compare notes. Why would you want to keep such a great set of armor secret? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott M.[TK] Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Just need closeups of the helmet to verify the aerators and lenses. Also for your elite profile pic, I need a shot that is evenly lite, the sun and shadow lines make it impossible to photoshop into a SW background. Good job on the armor trooper. Yea, what he said!! Also, I can almost tell, but I would like to see a side shot so we can see the gap (or lack there of). If you can't do these, feel free to box your kit up and send it to me for proper storage!!!

Smitty Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Lookin Sexxay! what make of armor is that? TE2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKUTCH[TK] Posted October 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Thanks for the comments. I'm very happy with how it turned out. The 'strip' method adds another giant chunk of hours to the time, but it just looks so much cleaner in the end. Here are more pictures as requested. I probably won't have time to totally suit up again fro full retakes until the weekend. I'm working like 70 hour weeks and this armor took me forever at the rate I had to go. Let me know if you guys need anything else for getting approval. I like detachments like these that really make you do it right before accepting anything. It actually looks a little darker than this picture makes it look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott M.[TK] Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Looks great. All I need is a side shot showing the "no gaps" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Outstanding! Yes, a side pix. Lord Vader is getting impatient - he's been waiting for you to achieve this for some time. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKUTCH[TK] Posted October 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Here are some unused shot which show my side. I used white elastic on the right side and the armor is edge to edge. If these gap is too big on the left side, let me know and I'll add something. I can probably move the snap pretty easily and close it more if needed.
