darthfoster[501st] Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 (edited) UPDATED 12-15-09 Finally I have had the time to get the photos taken. Its been done since the Modesto, California parade of lights on the 5th of this month but the darn holidays are strangling me right now. Vaderdave is awesome, he has helped tremendously with the button fiasco. Well here they are......

firebladejedi[TK] Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 You need to be a full member with a TK number before applying for EIB status. Quote
darthfoster[501st] Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Posted November 1, 2009 You need to be a full member with a TK number before applying for EIB status. Thanks for the heads up Mark, after all the reading I should have caught that. Wasn't quite sure if I saw some other posts here a while back with a similar situation or not. Thanks for checking out the post though. Did you see anything that I should do to be ready after getting my TK number? Probably should have just asked for critiques in the ANH section before posting here, sorry guys Quote
DarthChridan[TK] Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 So..at next, on your E-11 the cartridgesreject it must to be silver. On your pix the lenses looks rather brownish !?! But at first your TK ID..... ....as yet it looks good By the way, the pinball and table soccer looks awesome Cheers.... Quote
tkrestonva[TK] Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 Other than the missing ab button, you are easily clearable for 501st membership. The RT Mod helmet comes standard with a flat gray lensplate, for EIB you'll need to change it out for flat green lenses. Love the man cave! If I had a room like that I'd pretty much live out of it.

2155TK[TK] Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 That's a great looking blaster bro! Is that resin? almost there bro! Quote
DarkTrooper[TK] Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 Great job with the armor. I'm gonna go for EIB too on my first TK armor. That's how WE represent Stockton, hahaha! Contact Scott with the Central California Garrison. He'll help you with getting setup with the 501st! We could use you in the Christmas parade coming next month in Modesto. Quote
TK-2126_MD[TK] Posted November 2, 2009 Report Posted November 2, 2009 Looks awesome!!!! follow the other things pointed out, the only other small suggestion i would have is to raise the thermal boxs till they almost touch the belt. did u sends your pics for 501st yet? Quote

For some reason between the lights and the camera flash I couldn't get the lens to come up green. I did change the lense to a Cutout Jackson faceshield 34-42 as suggested by other troopers to avoid flash through, looks like its working too good, Ill submit a side by side with the extra lense I cut out of the faceshield. Thanks for the compliments on the room, back in the younger days it was a Star Wars apartment cloaked with 2 of those 100' Taco Bell Feel the Force banners, action figures etc. and the motion Darth Vader bank on top of the toilet ..nothing like hearing the force is strong with this one when having to do your thing along with the lightsaber that was the perfect nightlight. Now The room and space allowed is getting smaller and smaller hense the loft.. Quote

Sorry its been a while, can't wait to get out there with you guys. I'll definitely contact him tomorrow. VaderDave got back with me on the button so its looking good for the parade. I'm going to work on painting the barrel and the thermal boxes. Can't wait to get out there! Thanks guys for the advice!! Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 2, 2009 Report Posted November 2, 2009 You are soooooo close Adam but that shouldn't detract from the pride in your costume or trooping. You're have a great looking suit and as soon as those details are cleared and your TKID assigned, you'll be golden. Quote
ObiHahn[TK] Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 Now The room and space allowed is getting smaller and smaller hense the loft.. Women, huh? Gret looking rig there, Adam. RT-Mod seems to be a great choice, you make it look very good! Quote
darthfoster[501st] Posted December 16, 2009 Author Report Posted December 16, 2009 Guys ...."We did it!!" :leia: Hope I got everything fixed here. Just got done going on my first troop with our garrison in the Modesto parade of lights! Super fun time there and we have some really friendly people in our garrison and I can't wait to meet others in trooping events. My main goal is to get in a few troops for the kids and charities here too. Hopefully I'll get the chance to be off work when one these takes place. Well thanks for your time and have a happy holiday season everyone! Quote
vicsouders Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 Great looking armor there Adam! Best of luck with EIB. Quote
ThayNerd[TK] Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 Looking great Adam! You'll be the third EIB in the CCG! Quote
TK-9820 Posted December 17, 2009 Report Posted December 17, 2009 I knew there was a reason we let you carry the Garrison banner at the parade. Nice looking set of armor. Quote
darthfoster[501st] Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Posted December 17, 2009 Thanks for the support guys!! Couldn't ask for a better garrison to be apart of. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted December 17, 2009 Report Posted December 17, 2009 If Terrell doesn't log in and give you the thumbs up in a day or so, I will. You look great! Don't forget to request 501st access too so you can access the det-only jacuzzi bar with Twi'lek wait staff. Well done! Quote
darthfoster[501st] Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Posted December 17, 2009 I'll take a blue milk please.. Thanks Paul, hope you have a nice holiday sir! Quote
