i made mine but you could pick up a single mag pouch and dye it black http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Alice-9mm-Mag-Pouch-M9-Molle-Magazine-Utility-Ammo-/260751982432?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cb6077f60 my other idea would be to use a jack knife case you could probably find one at wally world or a sporting goods store

you should be able to weather the shiny helmet fine.. but like Sean said light sanding to add scuffing in some areas.. but it is really up to you and how you want it to look.. the pouch is fine but the ICN has another small pouch attached to the side like so you could just add on another small pouch here are some pics of my helmet weathering.. i just polished it up and added more weathering whether it is dull or shiny that is up to you i had it dull before but i just added a shiny clear coat and i love it myself

i wouldn't worry about sanding the topcoat on a weathered armor myself. and ask away, that's what the FISD is for

ok, you need only to apply a thin coat at a time and it should dry in 24 hrs tops.. if your helmet took too long it was probably because the paint was applied too thick. When spraying the spray paint make sure to use smooth even passes across what is being painted. Do not start painting on top of the part because the paint will be heavier in that area. When painting you want to press and release the button to the side of the part being painted. Again a few light coats are better than one heavy one and make sure to allow proper drying time between coats. i wait 2-3 hrs between coats with rustolium.. then 24 to 48 hrs before handling (depending on the weather) i am currently using rustolium automotive spray paint and it looks great! the good thing is that if your going to make an incinerator you dont really need a smooth glossy finish.. it will accept the weathering better if you leave the sprayed on texture and you should only need 2-3 coats over a good primer

can i ask what type of rustolium enamel you used (appliance epoxy, automotive, professional) ??? and it will be great to have another ICN!!!!!

i love the hammered metal rustolum as well.. i also spray a mist of flat black to reduce the shine on some parts.. latest pait job http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=14624 i layer the hammered finish over silver then a flat black mist. it looks much better in person than the photos

haha! ok how much for a bag of those magic seeds????

wow! i like it alot

yea a special section for all EU stormtroopers would be cool.. it may inspire new TKs to go the EU rout

i think just myself and Stevenchewbacca are the only approved so far.. one has just submitted for approval and one more is in the works as far as i know... i am not sure if the first ICN still has his costume.. that was before my time here but if so that would make 3 to date i would really like to see more

i want to be close as well another intersting thing about chronology of the game... troopers from battlefront are 100% ROTJ perhaps the different types of armor were always there???? ROTJ,ANH,ESB image from SW battlefront battlefront is also set in the pre rebellion era

i wouldn't recommend that.. for one that is a detail that is most likely changed for game programming (3D skinning) reasons. also you will have no way to strap your cod and butt plates together without a strap showing.. look closely at this artwork from the game (the trooper on the far right has a normal butt plate) unlike the stormtroopers that come from the movies the ICN and other EU troopers from the game are digital art.. and like any form of art you need to interpret it.. this is why the CRL is set up with ROTJ style armor.. i believe that it was the artist intention for the armor to be in that style, that is why the butt,kidney should be one peice and the cod and ab plates should not be cut... for example.. look at this piece of art the details are obviously incorrect.. but you can see that it was the artist intent for this to be a stormtrooper.. make sense??? it is hard for me to to explain

really unless you can make a pauldron out of a very flexible/stretchy material and add padding to lift it up and keep the shape. i dont see how it will look right.. i tried this with my paudron and far too much black showed and the shoulder without the bell was slumped down and uneven from the left.. i would say it would be a nice to have (even for centurion) as it would be very difficult to do without making a new type of pauldron from scratch.

the problem with not wearing the shoulder bell is it is impossible to get a regular pauldron to bend like that.. (trust me i tried everthing ) even if you bend the pauldron like i did HERE it still looks really lop sided without the bell under it it was likely just left out of the game because of a limitation in the skinning check out the shadow incinerator, 2nd trooper from the left (this is concept art, but it shows the other shoulder bell) as for the belt, they appear to be rivets but i dont think they will be required under the current standards

sweet Vern!!! cant wait to see this.. i did the TKC already but the HWT i still need better quality.. i want to get my PS2 emulator working again so i can get the best possible quality screens .. i lost my BIOS files lol

yes those lenses are really nice i wants some

no i wouldn't separate the cod piece and the ab. -----------

finally got these ready to post these are from TFU ultimate sith edition

there is a EIB contest right now, you could be the next lucky winner http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=14465

lol! its from the force unleashed who said stormtrooper armor cant take a beating

i agree!! the symmetrical look really looks nice with the markings. almost makes me want to get myself a EFX

i just got the RC hailfire droid from the clone wars in the mail today, man this thing is great fun this vid was just after taking it out of the box, the thing spins really good and fires 19 missiles by the remote control its pretty tough as well.. a great toy for young and old but be prepared to stock up on batteries, it requires 6xAA + 3xAAA it also comes with a clone trooper figure... but like most of the new figures is really cheaply made,,, his head fell off after a few mins this toy is set for FUN!!! well worth the 25$
