Profile Information

  • Interests
    Renaissance festivals, gaming of all sorts (video games, board games, war games, role playing games...etc etc etc..) sci-fi and fantasy movies...a fairly well rounded nerd, that had the good fortune to be at the perfect age to see and fall in love with all things Star Wars at the time the original opened in theaters. Always wanted a great Star Wars costume, but always lacked the knowledge and motivation to do anything about it...until... a friend of mine turned up at the Arizona Renaissance Festival dressed in his sandtrooper armor (Dune Sea Garison), now I have a kit, and nearly built, and can't wait to join the 501st, and be a part of such a great organization. if you're in the Chandler area hollar me up, I would love to meet people to start getting involved while I work on getting finished.

  1. I got mine here: http://www.mypilotstore.com/mypilotstore/sep/8049 I have rubber ones too, but the nomex work kinda well in the Arizona heat.
  2. Doopydoos is UK based isn't he? http://www.doopydoos...plicas-31-c.asp Never seen one up close for detail comparison, but I read alot of people raving about the quality of his product *shrugs* But those 2 sources are the only ones I heard a bunch of good reviews for to be honest.
  3. I believe DLT-19s T-21s and E-11s would all be suitable for any rank honestly...Doopy doo's are great from what I have been reading, and I think he is UK based? I love my Hyperfirm DLT, the detailing is fantastic, and they are great folks to do business with.
  4. Don't think you'll be disappointed, have fun weathering
  5. shipping may be pricey from Trooperbay, but I think it is worth it. The amount you get is enough to weather, I would guess 2-3 suits (I was skeptical of this when I saw the size of the packages) Once I started playing with it, it really goes a long way. The results are not questionable. I also used unsanded grout (powder) in the color linen (light yellowish tan). cigar and firepit ash, for some varying greys.
  6. TD-44835 Dune Sea Garrison, respectfully requesting access
  7. Just got my Legion ID today, and wanted to thank everyone here that contributes to this wealth of information. You guys have made this project a truely gratifying experience... Bravo zulu!
  8. I believe that should be Brake d'windu Everyone know an apostrophe makes the name far more "Star Warsy"
  9. Mine doesn't move around much, but it does tend to flare up too much in the back...been thinking about putting some Velcro on it to keep it down on the back plate.
  10. I just bought a DLT-19 from them...I sent a message to Lewis (slavefive) over at FISD. I think I bought his last one before he took a break for a bit, but I would certainly send him a message.
  11. Here is the suit...it's not "SWAT", but it is my first ever endeavor, hopefully it will get me basic clearance, and I want to get out there and play:
  12. I personally liked the way the Citadel Purity Coat (mat) finish looks. I figure it like this...after years of deployment in a place like Tatooine, nothing is going to stay "shiny"...I looked at cars in a junkyard as my inspiration spending long amounts of time in the sun and wind, with frequent dust storms (Arizona).
  13. I almost bought one of his suits, my wife saved me when she told me no...then I stumbled on this site to find that I almost made a huge mistake
