Runnriottt Posted September 13, 2008 Author Report Posted September 13, 2008 I trimed a few peices to get the hang, and its not all that hard. The bells and hands are ready for sanding. I am diging up some refrence pics of ANH troops, and going from there. This is my first set of canon armor, so its a little diffrent build wise to the FX. I am still having thoughts of TD though... Gotta bash that outta my head. I really think I am just going to keep a pauldron around for my patches and such. Non-canon events... Might need some buds to help allign stuff for fitting. This armor is awesome... I love it! Quote
Guest TK-2416 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Posted September 13, 2008 Thats is great... TE2 is the best IMO.. Have fun with it!! I am very impressed with your line up of costumes/armors!! Your wife is very tolerante... And of course you should go TD with it!! I love what I did with mine... And I also didnt paint it white.. Just novus and earth colors and it is just perfect!! You can always go TK... He he he.. Sorry clean guys Quote
MandalorianWarrior87 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Posted September 13, 2008 Go Nathan! Can't wait to see more pictures. Quote

If anyone has an inside track & prices etc, PM me now if you want... I'd love to know. Thanks! Quote
Runnriottt Posted September 14, 2008 Author Report Posted September 14, 2008 Ok, stupid question no 1. What defines the left and right to these peices? My first clue was how they were packed, and I numbered them on a cut away section of each part 1 and 2. How do up tell the diffrerance though? Biceps Bells Thighs Calf Forarm Quote
Guest TK-2416 Posted September 14, 2008 Report Posted September 14, 2008 Hi! I have a build thread with a lot of pics.. It should be easy to see how they match.. http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=4109 Quote
troopermaster Posted September 14, 2008 Report Posted September 14, 2008 If you take a photo of the parts, I will tell you which is left and right Quote
Runnriottt Posted September 14, 2008 Author Report Posted September 14, 2008 Will do. It will help fot the TM build as well. I am going to be a plastic building madman! Quote
troopermaster Posted September 14, 2008 Report Posted September 14, 2008 Nate, I just took a couple of pics from TK-2416's link and here they are marked up for you. I'm sure you can manage with the thighs TM armour is marked up already Quote
Runnriottt Posted September 14, 2008 Author Report Posted September 14, 2008 Perfect. Thats what I am talking about. I am off to mark the parts! Thanks mate! Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted September 15, 2008 Report Posted September 15, 2008 Sweet news! Yeah, keeping posting pix as you go I'd say go TK and then when it's all beat from trooping go TD, and then use your TM for the TK. Can you really have enough armor? TE2 & TM - man it's like...like...getting an F-14 AND and F-15 for your birthday. Quote

TE2 & TM - man it's like...like...getting an F-14 AND and F-15 for your birthday. I know right! Some day I want to get the hat trick, go for an AP. With Vader done, and the TB done, its time to push the limits with TK! I have some of the parts rough trimmed. I will be starting on the Calfs first. Quote
TK-Viper Posted September 15, 2008 Report Posted September 15, 2008 I have some of the parts rough trimmed. I will be starting on the Calfs first. Cool. Can't wait to see the pics! Quote
