gazmosis[501st] Posted December 27, 2011 Report Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) Big...big trooper!! Looking good, Man!!! Constuctive crit (don't kill me) The only thing I noticed is try to hike up the shoulder bells a little bit higher if possible. Edited December 27, 2011 by gazmosis Quote
tkrestonva[TK] Posted December 27, 2011 Report Posted December 27, 2011 Big...big trooper!! Yeah, exactly what I was thinking. Got any 7-foot Vaders out there at the Outpost? If not, I know of one in the Ohio Garrison - you two really should get together. Looking good. Quote
BananoPower22[TK] Posted December 27, 2011 Report Posted December 27, 2011 looking nice! is the butt separated from the kidney? Quote
Necron[TK] Posted December 27, 2011 Report Posted December 27, 2011 looking nice! is the butt separated from the kidney? On the RT-mod they are separate pieces. Quote
MartinSivertsen[501st] Posted December 27, 2011 Report Posted December 27, 2011 Looking really good. Must be nice to finally get your EIB :-D Centurion next! Quote
dashrazor Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 looks great Eric. Approved! hope i never have to troop next to you lol you'd make me look like a jawa JK Quote
SolderMaster Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 (edited) Yup, I agree with gazmosis, hike up the shoulder bells, (shorten your strapping) and I would email Rob about getting replacement thigh ammo box and new sniper plate....for Centurion, that is. Glue the sniper plate and get the correct split rivets or brads for the ammo box... That's what I'm doing. That and either paint or get the "painted" decals from Trooperbay for your lid. Also get the correct "S" trim, White elastic to hold down your shoulder straps, White elastic to connect chest and back, and when you get the $$ grab a Hyperfirm, or get a scratch-built or all resin E-11. That's about all you and I both need. Only I have the Hyperfirm already.... Looking great fellow RT-MOD trooper!!! Edited December 28, 2011 by SolderMaster Quote
matt black Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 Well done Eric. Another fine addition to the EIB. Suit looks fantatsic mate. Quote
Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Posted December 28, 2011 Hells yeah! Thanks Mason.... and everyone else who have helped along the way. Big...big trooper!! Looking good, Man!!! Constuctive crit (don't kill me) The only thing I noticed is try to hike up the shoulder bells a little bit higher if possible. I know, right?! My shoulder bells are an ongoing battle. When snapped to the shoulder elastic they pull down on it so much you can see a big white blob poking out from under the shoulder bridges. I have a strap between the two that once went across my back but that pulled the bells toward my back too much. In these photos I put the strap across my chest but still can't quite get them high enough, but at least they're tilted forward not back. looking nice! is the butt separated from the kidney? Yep. RT-MOD comes that way. I have the belt going over the seam between the two to cut down on trooper booty. A pic from my build: Yup, I agree with gazmosis, hike up the shoulder bells, (shorten your strapping) and I would email Rob about getting replacement thigh ammo box and new sniper plate....for Centurion, that is.

I already have the hand painted decals from trooperbay waiting to be adhered, s trim is installed, and there's a half glued droopy resin E-11 on my workbench and that should be it for centurion. See above my about my shoulder bell woes... it's in process. I'm already using actual split rivets in those photos for my thigh ammo and the sniper knee is glued. Is there something else up with my thigh ammo that would warrant a replacement? Oh and yes... yes.... I'm one big mothertrucking vader sized TK Aloha and thanks everyone.... Best Xmas present yet -Eric Quote
