WhiteCommando[501st] Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 How do people feel about this... It is by Imaginager off the RPF. Just wondering. Quote
Exodus[TK] Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 Looks great. How about an EU consideration??? Quote
SuperTrooper Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 Ralph Maquarie stormtrooper concept, looks good. I must have missed it on the RPF, I've only seen the concept Vader thread. Got a link? Quote
Butah Fett Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 Looks great. How about an EU consideration??? I dunno... Calling a concept an EU costume can open up the gates for a lot of weird costumes... Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 There is EU, and there is 501st accepted EU. If you want to do a custom costume of any kind, whether it be something you read in one book or this prototype, my hat's off to you. 501st EU is of course the province of the LMO. I think it's cool that someone is attempting this - kinda like making real life models of Da Vinci drawings. Quote

Excellent work so far as well. Quote
WhiteCommando[501st] Posted January 24, 2007 Author Report Posted January 24, 2007 I understand about the weird stuff. I saw a lot of custom Mandos that I thought were kind of odd. I did a custom Mando a while back, as well as helping another fellow do it. My old avatar... Custom lid for a guy in the UK... BREAKING NEWS :: I just got a PM from the guy making it... he said he handed it off to some guys who said they will be making copies of it before this summer. There you go. Quote

I agree, but it looks cool though I understand about the weird stuff. I saw a lot of custom Mandos that I thought were kind of odd.

TK-4935 Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 i thought that to get a EU costume cleared you needed reference material from at least 3 different sources. surely the Ralph McQuarie concept trooper was just one or two sketches and maybe a painting from 1 source. Fraking love it though. i've become almost mezmorised by it. strange how it never got used. i think it's menacing as hell. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 For a 501st approved costume it's up to the LMO. Having three sources helps, but what he's really looking for is permanence in the SW universe. Doesn't mean you can't to this costume, just means it probably won't be considered acceptable for 501st status as an EU trooper. Quote
WhiteCommando[501st] Posted January 25, 2007 Author Report Posted January 25, 2007 That is why I will be approved in this... Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 Say, that armor looks quite similar to this I wonder if they're from the same source...And those decals...they look like those cool ones that are removable so you can change paint schemes...wonder where you got those from ;-) Quote
troopermaster Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 I've been following this project from the start and would love one of these helmet's.It's a shame Alan couldn't finish this himself but at least things are moving on.I hope to see this sculpt turn into hard plastic very soon -Paul.

WhiteCommando[501st] Posted January 25, 2007 Author Report Posted January 25, 2007 Wow, nice weathering on that suit. Amazing! Makes me want to paint mine!!!

Butah Fett Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 That? Oh no, that won't do. You'll never get approved in that. It's not even worth keeping. Send over to me and I'll see it get disposed of properly... That is why I will be approved in this... Quote
BactaReality Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 How do people feel about this... It is by Imaginager off the RPF. Just wondering. I feel that I must have one. Quote
TK8280 Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 That is why I will be approved in this... Nice, can't wait to finish my two kits up Quote
