    Where do you stand with your submission?

    That is so awesome. Gonna need those as a t-shirt, patch, and wallpaper please.

    I can see this being a cool badge that is a MEPD exclusive thing. Not CRL or level but just a unique identifier. Don't think it's something for me personally but it is a cool concept.
  4. Airborne Trooper
    Awesome work! Love that T-21! I'm definitely going to need one of those some day.

    Get a clean mason jar or baby foot jar and put some small pieces of abs in and then add just enough acetone to barely cover it. Wait an hour or so and mix it with a craft stick or something similar. I always let mine sit overnight and I bought some cheap throw away craft brushes from walmart to brush the paste on. The smoother you get it on the less pain to sand it. You want to let the ABS paste dry for a day. If you rush it it'll be spongy like texture. Need to give it time for the acetone to fully evaporate.

    If you think about it, a sandy started off clean and shiny but went out to the dunes to do real work. You don't get too dirty on an imperial cruiser in space.

    That is awesome! You have some skills! I would love that as a shirt. Any chance you can make the colored version in multiple sizes for a desktop background?
  8. Airborne Trooper
    Everything is looking good, you'll go crazy overthinking things. Try to keep some scrap ABS for potential ABS paste
  9. Airborne Trooper
    No way I could ever go clean with my current kit. Way too many scratches and imperfections that are strategically covered.
  10. Airborne Trooper
    Awesome work, nice to see a face since I've only read your posts or heard your voice for years now.
  11. Airborne Trooper
    Good luck on your approval. Shouldn't have any problems.
  12. Airborne Trooper
    Don't forget to remove the return edge down by the wrist area.
  13. Airborne Trooper
    Improvise, overcome, and adapt! I will be doing this here shortly! Thanks guys!

    For basic entry you can remove the 4th button with the part that comes with Anovos. It's not perfect by any means but it'll get you basic entry. I would highly recommend hitting up Walt from WTF on whitearmor or one of the many great vendors we have in the community for the real part though. We like to show off the slit that the 4th button hides on our armor

    That's why I can't recommend Anovos after the Celebration pricing. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice kit that has been sterilized of "imperfections" but their normal prices are ridiculous.
  16. Airborne Trooper
    Looking great! If you get stuck on something, one of our SWAT members ukswrath has a very detailed Anovos build thread over on whitearmor
  17. Airborne Trooper
    Suspenders, that's old school!

    I used 2 inch white elastic but doubled it up to eliminate some of the extra elasticity, mostly for the shoulder bell attachment so it wouldn't pull it and create a bunching effect.
  19. Airborne Trooper
    I built my sandtrooper to Centurion specs but obviously ignored/added features to make it a sandtrooper.
  20. Airborne Trooper
    I love my hyperfirm. I just wish they would make a bapty version. I'll have to get a bapty soon anyways but no way I'm spending that much and risk getting it damaged at a troop.
  21. Airborne Trooper
    Swap out the screws that came with the thermal detonator with the screws on the ears. It's more accurate. You obviously won't need the thermal detonator for a sandy though.
  22. Airborne Trooper
    Get the sewn on. The Dritz #10 are very easy to find.
  23. Airborne Trooper
    So when are you submitting for 501st approval?
  24. Airborne Trooper
    I can vouch for blaster8266 as well. I picked up two leather MP40 and the cloth one with the little pouch. Top notch quality!
  25. Airborne Trooper
    That's fantastic. Looks like real metal
