tkrestonva[TK] Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 One of you FOTK (I really want to type FOKT) nerds better suit up when you're done and take a high quality photo with one of these shields! -Eric Will do, boss. By the end of this week, I think you'll have all the photos you can stand (and them some). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryanmc[501st] Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 I finished my shield but since my baton just arrived today I don't think I'm going to get to it before the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vertex[TK] Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Here's how I did my back plate. Added some foamrubber to the plate to protect the paint on my forearm and avoid some slippage. Added the foam handles so I could have something of more volume than a thin strap to hold on to.

jrhd89[501st] Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Here are a couple post build shots and me trooping with some Garrison Tyranus mates at the National Air and Space Museum on Friday, 18 Dec. The shield looks good painted. I used the Rustoleum paint (semi-gloss white, semi-gloss black and silver over a flat white primer). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plushie[TK] Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Working on my shield now. What glue are you guys using? CA or E6000? I'm torn between the two. Cure time is not a factor for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
