Baldenwonder Posted January 14, 2012 Report Posted January 14, 2012 Hi Ade, I have moved onto trimming my armour now, I thought I'd leave the helmet for a bit as I'm tempted to take the stripes off and do them again. The TM armour is a work of art so I want to do it justice and do an awesome build. Work has gone bonkers busy so I'm itching to get building. You'll be trooping in no time Quote
sharptrooper Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Posted January 14, 2012 Hope so mate gunna miss the E1 3d premier as induction is week afterish :-( sad times Quote

Rich330[TK] Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 Very nice project, well done. Although it's a slight sacrifice on accuracy, it was sensible to put flat lenses in for trooping. Quote
sharptrooper Posted January 20, 2012 Author Report Posted January 20, 2012 There not flat there bubbled mate for true hero accuracy :-) Quote
Rich330[TK] Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 There not flat there bubbled mate for true hero accuracy :-) Sorry, mate. They looked flat in the photos. How's the vision? Did Paul make them? Quote
vecspeed12 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 Looks good! I like how your biceps are actually. Quote
sharptrooper Posted January 20, 2012 Author Report Posted January 20, 2012 Vision is surprisingly good just on the outside edge it's a tiny bit weird but over all its very good and yep paul done them for me. And my biceps are???? Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 Where's the centurion application? You look awesome! Quote
sharptrooper Posted January 20, 2012 Author Report Posted January 20, 2012 Still not cleared with UKG mate :-( Quote
Rich330[TK] Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 Vision is surprisingly good just on the outside edge it's a tiny bit weird but over all its very good and yep paul done them for me. Ah yes, Paul commented in another thread that he's developed a way of shaping them so that you can still see OK. And my biceps are???? The dog's danglies! Quote
troopermaster Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 The is not as much of a bubble as on some of the other lenses out there. I have made lenses that look close to the orignals but vision is terrible, so now I have a slight bubble towards the outsides and try and leave the inner sides flatter for better vision. I think you have to compromise when it comes to bubble lenses. Quote
Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 Did you ever know that you're my hero, And everything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle, For you are the wind beneath my wings. If you only knew how long I've waited for an ANH hero to come along to sing some Bette Midler here on the FISD forums. Looking great. I think you're a few blaster photos and a TK ID away from centurion. Maybe Mason could give you a pre-approval letter as if you were applying for a mortgage. I think he'll be hard pressed to suggest any changes. Aloha, -Eric Quote
sharptrooper Posted January 21, 2012 Author Report Posted January 21, 2012 Cheers for the comments guys :-) clearance and tk id couldnt come sooner!!!! all the waiting is making me balder to say the least lol well here`s my E-11 pics had to add counter and cylinders to gun as ANH hero style aint clearable unfortunately :-( my DoopyDoos E-11 will kit up tomorrow for posing pics :-) any excuse really to b honest Quote

sharptrooper Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Posted January 25, 2012 well as of 2:03 this afternoon im now a cleared ANH Hero stormtrooper of the uk garrison so tk number should b alone shortly fingers crossed Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Ignore both these suggestions. You have the biceps set perfectly and EVERYONE else has them too high which is WRONG! I think you have been looking at too many replicas to come up with this conclusion. ONLY use screen caps when building armour, NOT other peoples interpretations of what is seen on screen as 9 times out of 10 they usually get it WRONG A bit of a gap at the sides is fine and I think the 'no gap' rule is a bit stupid seeing how the gaps can be seen in the movies. But, I will agree with DA and say the back plate could be higher to stop the overalp onto your kidney plate. Do this by making the back shoulder tabs closer to the chest shoulder tabs. If they are already touching then you will have to cut the back tabs to allow the back to ride up higher. I'm late to the party but agree with TM on both counts. The no gap rule is a good goal and remember at the time all most had was FX kits with huge gaps, so having "no gap" was easier than saying "a small gap is OK". I also agree fully with the biceps - good call on that. Quote
senna1rossi[TK] Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Wow, so nice... It's dreamy Quote
