Hi from Germany again

[Halfpint[TK]]

Hi everybody,

 

my name is Alan and I am located in Germany. Always been a Star Wars fan ever since the early 80‘s. Now I am old enough ( lol ) to finally make my dream come true. So is am working on getting a complete armor since my craftsmanship is zero to none with plastics and I do not have the space as well. Am looking for some insights on how to once my set arrives. 
 

if you have any question feel free 

 

cheers

Alan

Hi Alan, welcome to FISD.

Good luck and looking forward for your BBB day!

Thank you very much ! I will have a look Into this

Hello and welcome aboard, some great info for you in the Getting Started section  

 

Good luck with the research and look forward to seeing a build thread from you soon 

[Hesikaya[TK]]

Welcome to FISD Alan! While you wait for that Big Brown Box you have plenty of time to check out build threads and get the upper hand on those plastics when they arrive.

[Halfpint[TK]]

An awesome welcome. I appreciate it. And yes I will look into all of it until that BBB arrives.  
 

have a great day

Hi Alan, welcome to the FISD.

 

Maybe you want to get in contact with local 501st members in your area?! This might help to tackle all this.

 

Feel free to send me a PM with all your questions if you want.

Hallo Alan. Nice to meet you.

Hallo Alan,

 

Welcome to FISD.

[Halfpint[TK]]

Thanks again everyone. Also made a post in the 501st German garrison but no reply yet. It will take some time until my order arrives so I am not in a rush. Been ordering from trooper stuff which works with RWA creations and only read good about both.

Hi Alan,

welcome to the FISD. 

Where in Germany are you located?

Maybe we can help you to contact troopers nearby to help you with your build. 
Cheers Christian

Hi Christian and thank you,

 

i am located in Franconia close to nuernberg. 
It’s been quite a while but it seems the German forum is not replying. But since I am still waiting for my BBB I am in no rush.

Welcome to the FISD Alan! How excited are you?

It’s been a childhood dream ever since I saw my first SW movie early 80‘s so I am really really excited and that is an understatement hahaha

[Halfpint[TK]]

Just a short update. My tk is being build right now and I should receive it before Christmas if I am lucky. As soon as I get it I will post some pictures so you can help me if anything needs to be perfected in any way. Just wanted to keep you up to date here 

[gmrhodes13[Staff]]

At times it's just a few tweaks with strapping so hopefully you won't have too much to adjust. Looking forward to the BBB photos soon  

[Nairy[Staff]]

Very good to hear, thanks for the update!  Be sure to start a build thread or pre-approval request when you get it and we'll help you out when the time comes! 

[Halfpint[TK]]

Thank you very much. Can I start the build thread on here and also the pre approval request or do I have to do this on the German site? Just asking because the German forum is really not responding to much as I can tell.

Welcome Alan! If i might, the updates you are posting are absolutely perfect and boy do we love to see this stuff. Might i suggest, move these over to a WIP (work in progress) thread and continue to post there. that way you will one day be able to go back and look at where you started, and may undertake the building of your next kit, and can use these as reference pics. Either way, welcome to the FISD and we look forward to you joining us.
