Brezz Posted January 22, 2016 Report Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) Hello my friends. First let me say that my english is not so good. I will try to do my best explaining things that i do on my armor. Hope to get a little help from you. I already startet a Thread on the German Site from the 501st.Now i want to get more informations and get som feedback. I dont want to do something wrong I have already done some changes. I think pictures should be better than writing to mutch. Edited January 22, 2016 by Brezz Quote
Brezz Posted January 22, 2016 Author Report Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) Here my Boots. I want to do something on my own. So i decided to paint them. I like the TK Boots. But making something with your Hands is a lot more exciting. There is a "Busse" logo on each site but i willl later do some weathering so i think that the logo will disappear. I also cut the retunr edge on booth Arms. I know that the Rubies E-11 Blaster ( Star Wars Rebels Blaster) is not accepted for Troopig. But when i display the Armor in my Living Room i want that the Stromtrooper has thomething in his hands. For Trooping i am not Shure witch Blaster i want to use. Like the SDS one.

Holnave (evan_loh)[TK] Posted January 22, 2016 Report Posted January 22, 2016 I like what you've done with your boots. It's original Soon after a number of troops you'll see the paint crack and look just like the Stormtroopers boarding the Tantive IV! Quote
welshchris77[TK] Posted January 22, 2016 Report Posted January 22, 2016 Great start!, if your thinking of getting the SDS blaster, I assume you mean from 'Shepperton design studios' yes?, then you maybe be better off going with a doopydoos kit, its a much better blaster and cheaper and you will have fun making it, plenty of build threads here to help you out too 1 Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted January 22, 2016 Report Posted January 22, 2016 Those boots are looking great, Patrick! I noticed that you are using Velcro on the forearms, though. You should actually not need that, unless your hands are much too large to fit through the small end. I they aren't, I would suggest gluing them permanently with an inside cover strip, (which will make them very strong) as well as an outside cover strip, as seen in the photo. The only place you should really need Velcro for is the back of the calves, (which will also need an outside cover strip). Halten Sie die großartige Arbeit!! Side note: I am really liking your work surface.. With all those colors, it looks like a cool abstract painting! Quote
Brezz Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Posted January 23, 2016 Thank you for the Tipps! I'm still working on the forearms. Veryhard to get this glue off. Arhhj.. I have also buy the strapps for the forearms. I will put some pictures online tonight. I think i will go with the overlap methode. Quote
humperdingle Posted February 1, 2016 Report Posted February 1, 2016 Hi, boots look good! What paint did you use? And did you use same paint on the elasticated gussets?<br><br> I have the same blaster... Quote
