ukswrath[Staff] Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 huh, I was off and on all weekend. I wonder why no one else was on either, weird Quote
Airborne Trooper[501st] Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 I think I was able to get on Friday but I didn't really try that much over the weekend. It definitely wasn't working for me yesterday at all Quote
Kredal[TK] Posted September 2, 2015 Report Posted September 2, 2015 Was down for me yesterday evening and all night (working the overnight shift, trying to watch build threads to stay entertained)... Did the dnsflush, all that fun stuff. Hopefully it stays up tonight! Quote
Haribon72[TK] Posted September 9, 2015 Author Report Posted September 9, 2015 The current to-do-list for drumstrooper (Jay). 1. Attach snaps to chest plate. 2. Attach biceps and shoulder bells to shoulder straps. 3. Attach holster to belt (holster coming from Vern). 4. Attach bicep hooks. 5. Final trimmings to biceps, forearms, thighs, back plate, and chest plate 6. Shop for Centurion blaster. Hasbro or conversion are not accepted. Quote
ukswrath[Staff] Posted September 9, 2015 Report Posted September 9, 2015 YEAH! Almost done Better hurry up your TFA is just around the corner lol 1 Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted September 9, 2015 Report Posted September 9, 2015 Looking good. The attention to detail is fantastic and it will be great to see this done. Troopers Helping Troopers, indeed The TFA will certainly be wanting for a team approach..."It will not be easy". 1 Quote
ukswrath[Staff] Posted September 9, 2015 Report Posted September 9, 2015 Man I wish I had a team on my TFA, that would have been wonderful. 1 Quote
Haribon72[TK] Posted September 16, 2015 Author Report Posted September 16, 2015 Sorry this build didn't have too much work in progress photos. I really needed to concentrate on getting his armor to fit him properly. After two sessions (11 hours each), we finally got Jay's application photos done. Quote
Haribon72[TK] Posted September 16, 2015 Author Report Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) We are wishing <strong>"Drumstrooper"</strong> a good luck on his application!!! From the beginning, I told Jay we are going straight for a Centurion build. His hard work and dedication to this project showed a lot of heart.<br><br>Things to acquire and work on in the meantime:<br><br>1. Centurion blaster (he currently has a Hasbro / Doopy Doo conversion kit). He's using my blaster for the picture above.<br>2. White latex hand plates<br>3. Fix the j-holders for the biceps.<br>4. Fix more armor pinches.<br>5. Helmet fan system.<br>6. Mic system.<br>7. Eliminate butt flapping action.<br>8. He really needs to be a storage / travel bin. He's been coming over my shop with cardboard boxes! hahahah!<br>9. Proper neck seal. My wife will be making one for Jay.<br>10. Helmet bag ( in-progress now ).<br>11. Paint knee ammo rivet white. 12. Improve the elastic strap between the biceps and forearms. Edited September 17, 2015 by Haribon72 Quote

Troopers Helping Troopers, indeed The TFA will certainly be wanting for a team approach..."It will not be easy". Thank you Daetrin! It was a honor to help Jay on this build. And yes, TFA team builds will be popular in the coming months. And if Gazmosis is watching..... Hey brother Steve!!!! I got one TK coming your way after he meets basic approval!!! Quote
ukswrath[Staff] Posted September 16, 2015 Report Posted September 16, 2015 Beautiful! Excellent job Walter and Jay 1 Quote
toybiz[TK] Posted September 17, 2015 Report Posted September 17, 2015 Incredible showing of what it means to have a team effort. The passion, enthusiasm, and mentoring truly shows in this and other team builds that you are doing Walter. I am proud to share the same garrison with you. 1 Quote
Haribon72[TK] Posted September 17, 2015 Author Report Posted September 17, 2015 Thank you Adam! Still waiting for Jay's application results. It's been 24 hours already and full of excitement. Quote
ukswrath[Staff] Posted September 17, 2015 Report Posted September 17, 2015 Thank you Adam! Still waiting for Jay's application results. It's been 24 hours already and full of excitement. It took Carlos almost 2 weeks to get his 1 Quote
Haribon72[TK] Posted September 17, 2015 Author Report Posted September 17, 2015 I'm also happy that we had alot positive responses and FISD eyes on his armor. I keep reviewing his application photos to see where we can improve. Quote
Haribon72[TK] Posted September 17, 2015 Author Report Posted September 17, 2015 It took Carlos almost 2 weeks to get his Are you serious? We'll I'd better start posting the other team build pictures while we wait. Quote
The5thHorseman[501st] Posted September 17, 2015 Report Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) Very nice work! The armor fits like a glove. The only thing i would improve is the strapping between the biceps and forearms. I would shorten it until the top of the forearm touches the bottom of the biceps. Right now the strap serves nothing, and we can notice it flapping loose. Edited September 17, 2015 by The5thHorseman 2 Quote
Haribon72[TK] Posted September 17, 2015 Author Report Posted September 17, 2015 Hello Germain, thanks for the catch. Well get right on the biceps and forearms. Quote
Haribon72[TK] Posted September 23, 2015 Author Report Posted September 23, 2015 AND HE'S APPROVED!!! CONGRATS JAY!!! 1 Quote
