New armor from the master.

[Rolf[501st]]

After seeing this pic I had to put a caption on it...He is a cute little bloke, Peter. I am not seeing any trouble in his future with armor builds, he'll be making tutorials on the FISD by the age of 5!

 

 

 

hahahahah too cool, i have all ready talk whit Mr. TM about getting a JR TM for him

[ThayNerd[TK]]

Looking great Rolf! Can't wait to see it all weathered!

[TKDUEUNO]

Awesome

 

Looks like you need a tighter undersuit, though!

[Wildabeast[TK]]

Looks awesome Rolf....great build

[stukatrooper]

Rolf my friend fantastic pictures mate ,you sure do strick a great pose.I know its only a test fit and im sure as it is only a test you wont mind me pointing out a few bugs?

 

Well only two and both in the arm dept.Biceps moved down and forarms moved up,thats it!

 

I must say you fit the suit so well perfect hight and build mate.

[TKDUEUNO]

 

 

I wanted to point that out too, but I was reluctant to critique one of the masters

[89Batman[TK]]

Those pics are amazing !!!! I can't believe how different it all looks before the lid has the decals.

[Rolf[501st]]

Hahahahaha good one

I guess i have a beef whit Vader now, better fix it asap.

So he don´t choke me

[Rolf[501st]]

I just took some new close ups, of my new TrooperMaster suit here to show you.

The indoor pictures, did not show who fantastic the suit really is.

 

I will start hand paint the helmet later today.

Enjoy

 

 

 

 

 

(i have a little "air" under the rubber bow trim, it will be fixed)

BRILLIANT!! Rolf just BRILLIANT!!

I have to say Rolf, this is a phenomenal build. For Pablo to call you one of the masters is about as high a praise as you can get

 

That said, I agree the biceps could come down a bit. Don't hate me !

[Rolf[501st]]

Thanks bro, you are too kind

I used all my best tricks, through the years on him too.

I can´t wait to get him all done in a week or two, and take some out door pictures of the monster.

(i have all ready lower the bicep )

Thanks for your replys on the suit

[TKDUEUNO]

Incredible job Rolf, as close to perfection as you can get.

 

I can't wait to see this beauty weathered and to get my hands on a new flexible TM!!!!!

 

For Pablo to call you one of the masters is about as high a praise as you can get

 

And that is really too much, Paul! I assembled just one suit, Rolf showed his skills in many of them, and with this one is surpassing himself!

 

As for the helmet, I think the cap is a bit tall, I'd trim the brow a bit more and raise the faceplate.

[synaptyx]

If I ever acquire a TM, can I send it to you to build it for me, Rolf?

[JoeR]

That is freaking sick fellas.

 

TM what the f***, the helmet is perdy!

 

And Rolfe, what a build.

 

Joe

[james007bond[TK]]

A few pictures...

Rolf... you tease...

It's so shiney and clean..... I think you have to dirty that bad boy....

 

On the dirty note, when you start weathering the armour, I think many of us shiney's would be interested to see the technique used to dirty it....

[james007bond[TK]]

 

Now that's a good idea, using a double snap and a machine screw I presume?

[Anduril]

Looks awesome! I can't wait to order my TM kit!

[Rolf[501st]]

That is freaking sick fellas.

 

TM what the f***, the helmet is perdy!

 

And Rolfe, what a build.

 

Joe

 

 

Thanks for all your great!!! replys on him, the TM is sure in the top class of the best out there.

And i guess a must have for ANH freaks, like most of us in here.

 

Here a small update.

Enjoy

 

All most done.

Now i only need to add the new frame to back pack, and TM tube/canister + end caps.

TTTtthheennn its weathering time

Here its mad snow, i just hope it stops in the next few days.

So i can troop whit it out side, for some cool shots.

New pics up real soon, of the suit finish and done

 

Here a few pics so far:

 

I have paint the helmet Dave M style, whit the 16 tube stripes left side wearing it, and 15 right.

Paint the stripe second on the right, first left, cut the < in the right eye too etc...

 

 

Troop on
