Howdy! I’m Scott from the Dune Sea Garrison / Jundland Wastes Squad. Getting into all this has been a journey that I wish I would’ve started so much sooner. I always liked the stormtroopers and then I saw a video on YouTube showing a never ending parade of them going down an escalator at a convention. I was dumbfounded. If there’s that many of them in one place surely, I can find a kit myself I thought. Many years later, when my employer made a “whoops” that resulted in owing me a handsome amount of backpay I ordered a kit from Anovos and joined FISD. Having been bitten by the bug I started working on some foam armor for the younglings in hopes we three could march around the neighborhood together come October. My first troop was in 2019. My favorite so far has been going into hospitals and cheering up the little ones there. Seeing a kid in a hospital bed have their expression change from despair to utter excitement and joy has been amazing! My boys have outgrown their foam TK’s and now join me at every event they’re allowed to rocking a Gonk droid and Jawa costume as Galactic Academy cadets.

Congrats Ken! Welcome to Centurion.

That's great info. Looks like nearly 50% of those who hit EIB continue on to Centurion. Sent from my sorrosuub C1 comm link device using Tapatalk

Glad you're finally conquering the tube paint. Curious about the velcro you want to add on the shoulder elastic. How do your shoulder bells attach currently? I have snaps on mine. Or are you worried about stretching the elastic? I keep the arms detached from the body when not being worn. I found that the elastic I used on the shoulder bells stretches out if I leave them on the bicep when stored so those are disconnected when not in use too.

I run 4 fans on 2 separate circuits and my hearing assist all off the same USB power stick. The fans do get noisy so I wear nose cancelling earbuds and have my hearing assist mics isolated. Sent from my sorrosuub C1 comm link device using Tapatalk

Happy to be here among the elite! Who else is going to join us?

That's so exciting, I'm EIB#982 and Centurion#482 such an awesome coincidence. I'm so happy to have made it to Centurion. Of course, I didn't get here alone. Thanks must go to everyone who's offered advice along the way to get me here. You all make this community a spectacular place to learn and grow.

Welcome aboard Danny. There's loads of info on the forum and plenty to get acquainted with as you begin the R1 journey. Seems to be a pretty regularly used kit by Lucas film these days.

I would also have to echo this statement. Glen has offered up many pearls of wisdom to me, and located things in the forums I knew existed but could not find. His knowledge and omnipresence is amazing. Thank you and congratulations Glen.

Forearms: Belt snaps were too tight to allow the belt to stay any higher so I removed and raised their position.

No time to stop. Here the link to my Centurion application. Just a couple of photo reshoots were needed and a screw tightened so far. I can't seem to get my belt to ride high enough after fixing my Ab buttons so I'm going to remove and fill in the holes for the snaps and install another reinforcement of ABS to strengthen the area. I already noticed some marks indicative of stress around one of the snaps so I'm looking to address that.

Welcome to FISD Kenneth! While FB is hip and cool the white armor forum is truly the place to be to get all the best info. Can't wait to see your WIP. Add the link to this post too so we can check it out.

Seems I had a screw loose. I got help, it's all better now. Sent from my sorrosuub C1 comm link device using Tapatalk

Congrats trooper! Good luck on climbing the ranks to Centurion.

Welcome Lucas, I applaud your service and commitment to honor your brother by joining the 501st. Welcome aboard!

Take that! You unauthorized weathering on the grip! I repainted the E-11 grip with a couple new coats of paint. I'm going to try to let this cure a bit more before I touch it. Some days I just can't help myself but to pick it up, flip it on, and imagine blasting some rebels. But for now I really want this new coat to stick.

Thanks, Sha Sha Here's the updated pictures: Picture of back and kidney showing no overlap. S-Trim put back in place.

Thanks fellas. I hit it with a little more paint last night. Sent from my sorrosuub C1 comm link device using Tapatalk

Thanks Glen, You have a great eye. I know I will have to repaint that grip for sure I'm just hoping to get through this before I take the time to remove the handle and strip it down. Everytime I hold my blaster the grip shows a little more paint worn away so it's inevitable. But if I have to dust it for now to get me by I'll do it.

Thanks Glen, I think the back plate just got caught somehow when I put it on for pictures. It usually doesn't sit like that so I hadn't noticed when I was checking everything else. As far as the helmet I don't have any padding at the top. My nugget goes up in there as high as I can get it or I feel I can't see well enough. My blaster, I think I forgot to primer the grip before I painted it. I guess I can give it a quick pass to clear for now but I just know I am gonna have to take that paint all the way back off and hit it with some primer if I want it to stick for good. Did you see a T-Track that looked weathered? I can retouch those too but don't see any weathering.
