I am not 100% positive but I think the only part needed to be painted is the back black.

Is the move along trooper the captain roadblock version?

Yeah I could go for the move along look. Am wanting to go for the captain cantina version. Oh and thanks for the tip I will keep that in mind when I take pics of the finished paint job on the helmet.

Well have been putting most of my time right now into my helmet until I get more glue. I have finished the helmet and started to paint the teeth. I am having a bit of a problem with the next trim crating little wrinkles where the ear pieces are. But I think the helmet came out okay for my first one however the alignment of the face and cap seem to be crooked.

I attached mine on the back and used two brackets on each side for more support. I'm guessing its personal preference.

Thanks for all the info guys, I am going to try to make time to go to my local thrift store to see if I can find one tomorrow.

Okay cool thanks man, I will keep looking though and try to hunt one down.

Yeah I just went over my grandmas house today looking for it, unsuccessful though.

I know there are some people selling the radar dishes here on the forums, but I just wanted to know if you could find them at a Walmart or Target?

Earlier today I posted a for sale thread for my TD kit to be sold, like the old saying I put the cart before the horse and did not think this one through completely. I am pretty young (17) and became overwhelmed with the cost of this hobby. It is hard for a teen to acquire 1000 dollars lol. However I have decided to stick around and push through to completing this project. I have gone this far now and do not want to quit on myself. I do apologize for putting up the for sale thread and turning back around to take it down. The MEPD has been very supporting and I thank you all. Treg

Just thought I would give a quick update on what point my armor is at. I have been working on the bucket getting the eyes and teeth cut out, and re-painting the inside. I have also got the white elastic attached to the front and back torso section. I also have been working on my pack I received from Dirty Boy. I got my strapping system complete and finished the mortar tube just need to add the panel and radar dish.

Where did you find your tupperware lid, do stores sell it like walmart or target?

Hahaha yes I saw that one too, I was originally going to post that one but went on youtube and saw this one.

just thought I would share this funny commercial of Lego star wars 3 that is coming out soon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZkMZLspd_Q&feature=watch_response_rev

snap pliers are used to put snaps together, makes it alot easier, that and the glue are sold at a michaels or any craft store.
