supa troop

how do i put the thighs right in such a way that it still gets MEPD clearence

ok ive managed to sort out the shins but i still need help and advice with the Thighs ..................... anyone

Hi Guys well this arrived today its a LEE ENFIELD wooden stock made of walnut. I think it is a BUTT for Lee Enfield No.4. It is in good Conditon and never been used. It is marked:"N 49 /I\". At the war time this code N49 was used by H Morris & Co Ltd GLASGOW. They made wooden parts for No4 Mk1. its made from British walnut and was probably produced during the WW2 era, or few years after 1945. Does anyone know of a pattern i can use for the Middle section of the T21 the bit goes between the Butt and Barrell

The weathering is down to individual Preference Mate, some like extreme dirt and some like subtle weathering, im certain this will get MEPD clearence therefore if it gets MEPD clearence (which imho is the biggest accolade you could get) then it should be cleared every where else. If you like it the way it is then keep it, your a Sandtrooper and Sandtroopers are meant to be dirty

Ok against my better Judgement ive decided to try and get this TE ANH armour done, as im getting married this year im having to persevere with it as just cannot afford or justify getting different armour. The Build is going ok a few issues to sort out ie the Shoulder Pouch, need to change the Orange Pauldron to White and then weather the Helmet some more The Fun in weathering the whole armour comes when its complete Ok so from the front everything looks fine but once i turn around all the problems with how small this TE becomes apparent. I need to sort out the Butt section as it sags at the sides which is the easy fix my problem are the legs in particular the thighs and calfs, how on earth am i going to get those areas to meet at the back and be at a standard for clearence into the MEPD ranks .......... your help and guidence would be great here guys plus any other issuse you can see with the build so far, long ways to go but its getting there. Once done il be ordering boots building a BFG and ordering a back pack from the MEPD Back Pack master Picture one Change Orange Pauldron to white and sort out the ammo pouch Picture 2 Looking ok from the front but way to clean Picture 3 Big Problems here, sort out the sagging Butt Section (easy done) but how on earth do i shim the thighs and calfs to a standard to get MEPD clearence.

yeah you need to use some pretty good poppers from a proper Fabric supplier

Wow what a picture, i seriously need to get some more weathering on my TE 'LSD' helmet, he almost looks oily .......... what do you suppose they used to wether this

ok give me about an hour or so to take some and upload

im up for a white one

wow having been away a while this is the first time ive seen this and it totally rocks im looking forward to seeing how you fix the butt plat to the back plate this bit always baffles me I have the first RS Sandtrooper Helmet in my posession if you want pictures just let me know

Thank you

Hey Guys im really sorry ive not been around in a long time i could bore you all with reasons why but my quess is you want to see pictures of a Fem with a BFG You may remember a while back i was building a Fem Trooper for my Fiancee, well she as well and truly got the trooping bug and her own personal FB page to http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100003256560524 Pictures with RS PROP MASTERS With IG-88

I just cant get over how tight this stuff is, ive shimmed it to the max but i would never get this stuff on defiantely need to look at another set to troop in if im to join you guys at Celebration

Well i can officially rule out the chance of ever wanting to wear this TE Armour. I tried to do a Test fit on me and there is no way its going to fit. Im in the Process of getting over Knee surgery and working out pretty hard, ive gained a few pounds and Inches in Muscle mass and boy does it show on the armour. The Bicep pieces would need to be shimmed about 5 inches Looks like im going to have to invest in some old style FX at least i know that will fit

Those are awsome, whats the probability of having the T-shirts done in this way
