The Lone Knight Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 I finished my armor build just in time for Dragon*Con! I met some great 501st guys there and I am looking forward to becoming a member. You can see ALL of the pictures I took at Dragon*Con here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/theloneknight...57622182242355/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 cool! is that an FX painted black? is it part of the "expanded universe"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrestonva[TK] Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 That's an FX kit. At one time Deckard was offering FX TK kits pulled in black ABS. I've also heard of people painting their standard white FX kits. The shadow stormtrooper is an Expanded Universe (EU) character, it falls under the 501st Legion's Spec Ops detachment. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_stormtrooper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone pull a suit in black nowadays or do you just have to paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obievon[501st] Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I really love the look of the glossy black armor! Does anyone pull a suit in black nowadays or do you just have to paint? (First off I'm stuck at work and I can't see these picture till I get home..........And it's killing me) My TX is a FX and I've had it for about a year now. (slow to get it all together, that's just me) I've seen a set on the bay made by PirateTrooper that looks cool! (it's not a FX) I was tempted to buy one of his helmet kits because it too looks way cool. I changed my mind due to a earlier post I had put on here about that ........ (still looks cool though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(still looks cool though) I just took a look at PirateTrooper's kit. It does look cool, but it's pricey and I've heard some things... I'm a member on the Spec Ops board and they're very quiet on obtaining the black armor. After I put together a white set I'm totally going black.

I've tried to post over on the Spec Ops and I can't seem to get anywhere. Still validating or something it says. So I just hang around here and bug all the TKs. How long have you been on the Spec Ops? Yes the price was the determing factor on the PT set.. (a bit too much) I know ATA armor is able to be pulled in black, howerver for now it's not the super shiny stuff like my FX ABS. PM if you want the info he gave me.......... (Super) nice guy. He's a (Trooper) for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been on Spec Ops since late August this year. At first my account said "still validating" for a couple of weeks, then it finally went through. I just think not many people use the board so things are slow... And I'll take any info a fellow Trooper can give, thanks Bill! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
