TheSwede[TK] Posted December 25, 2017 Author Report Posted December 25, 2017 Torso and shoulders complete so half-a-Stormtrooper-dance-it-is Time to start on the limbs, cover-strips are rough cut and marked so there's no confusion later on 1 Quote
shadan[TK] Posted December 25, 2017 Report Posted December 25, 2017 Awesome build so far. I haven’t ever really looked closely at a TM kit before but after reading your thread, damn it’s nice! Next time perhaps? 1 Quote
TheSwede[TK] Posted December 26, 2017 Author Report Posted December 26, 2017 (edited) Thanks and I'm very happy with it Edited December 26, 2017 by TheSwede Quote
TheSwede[TK] Posted December 29, 2017 Author Report Posted December 29, 2017 Expected to have done more but apparently I didn`t So...arms are done And the Shins are sized up, next up is the hook-closure before they are sealed...and the sniper-knee is rough trimmed Hopefully they dont walk away on me because that`s it for today 1 Quote
CableGuy[TK] Posted December 29, 2017 Report Posted December 29, 2017 Such a lovely shape to the TM armour. Plus, you make a great job of putting it together. :-)Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote

TheSwede[TK] Posted December 31, 2017 Author Report Posted December 31, 2017 The build is starting to come to an end and I'm already starting to miss this controlled chaos Final coverstrip is curing, ammo-knee and thigh elastic waiting to be installerade and then it's some trimming for comfort and TD to wrap this up - Happy New Year everyone 1 Quote
CableGuy[TK] Posted December 31, 2017 Report Posted December 31, 2017 Happy New Year to you too, Daniel. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your build in 2018. :-)Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote

TheSwede[TK] Posted January 2, 2018 Author Report Posted January 2, 2018 Pics sent to GML - it`s HARD taking pictures on your own but on the upside there`s pics that you didn`t even know you took untill you are done Like this one: blooper/behind the scenes.. Some small tweeks to be done but overall I´m very pleased with my Stunt-kit from TM (troopermaster) and E11 from Imperial Warfighters 4 Quote
TheSwede[TK] Posted January 4, 2018 Author Report Posted January 4, 2018 Removed a bit more return from the thighs, mostly inner half which got them a wee bit higher and also rotated them slightly = less black showing Before After 1 Quote
Steaditrooper[TK] Posted January 4, 2018 Report Posted January 4, 2018 I don't know Daniel... Looks a little too good. Nicely done. Great looking TK. Please tell my wife it is good for me to have more than one awesome suit. 1 Quote

Haha, thanks man Yeah I tell her Sandtrooper is completely different and besides that, having only one, that Trooper gets lonely and tend to suffer stess related cracks in armor - and we can`t have that 3 Quote
CableGuy[TK] Posted January 7, 2018 Report Posted January 7, 2018 Great job mate. Another superb looking set of armour. Lovely blaster, too. ;-)If I may, with Centurion in mind I couldn’t make out if your TD screws were pan head? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Thanks Dan but now you got me worried, they are black, slotted but not your typical pan head...however they were a part of the screen accurate strapping kit I bought with the kit so I just assumed they were...and I had no problem first time around, perhaps that was an oversight, I guess we will see - easy enough to replace though ( I have calmed down now) Thanks for checking up on me Quote
CableGuy[TK] Posted January 7, 2018 Report Posted January 7, 2018 No worries, mate. Mine were slotted done heads and I had to change them. As you say, it’s a nice easy fix if required. As I said though, superb build mate. You are building an army of outstanding armour and weaponry. :-)Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

Very kind as always - thank you Dan And yeah but I think I have to calm down a bit...Mrs 99665 is as patient as an angel with me having AND getting all this new stuff and I don`t want to push it but....well....i guess a few more blasters won`t hurt need 2 more E11:s for that gun rack That ROTJ TK will just have to wait.....
