T-Jay

Never heard of this, although I live in Germany - but that doesn't mean anything. This site was launched in September 2010 and seems to be a bit outdated, as the latest comment I found is from July 2012. However, there is an option to contact the maker for price info and availability. So if you want to give it a try...

Looking really good. Please show us a picture when the paint dried. So curious...

Very cool. Increases my interest for a TK-TD conversion at some far away day...

A very nice resource for builders Would be great if some high res pictures or detail shots could get added...

Thanks Rick and Damian.

Ah - a familiar face Hi Bas

Don’t know if this has ever been discussed anywhere, but could it be possible, that a Renault car logo was taken to vac-form the sniper knee plate? In the early 1970’s Renault had changed its logo as you can see here: So when the TD suits were in production, that logo already existed on cars. Compared to the TD knee plate it just looks a bit wider, like if the original was cut in two halves and some little pieces were added to top and bottom. Then filled the surface to get a smooth result. (picture of sniper knee taken from the CRL) Is there any confirmed information about that?

Hello everybody, although being registered for quite some time now, I haven’t posted much and feel I should introduce myself here. My name is Tino, living in Germany, 38 years old, father of two kids (5 + 8). In 2013 I started the TK journey on the FISD with an E-11 blaster build that took several months (and modifications). Next step was my TK (Troopermaster) and when it came to light weathering, that was the first time I had a bit of that feeling, which you all here will surely know and thought: There could be more to that suit than just TK… But that has been left for the future, as an additional upgrade. So, maybe some day I will do a TK-TD conversion. In the meantime I am offering Completion Sets for E-11 builds and currently working on some other nice things for the community… As my TK was just meant as a display, I am not aiming to become a 501st member - but you never know what comes your way… Best regards to all the dirty ones here (wow, there are much more and cooler smilies than on the FISD ) Tino

Very cool. Looks like comming straight from the battle on Hoth...

Very interesting weathering, makes the parts really look like metal. May I ask you to let us know, how this was done? Dry brushing? Dabbing? The only thing I wonder about is the weathering on the T-tracks. Is that correct?

That guy really seems to be an artist in what he does...

Noel, Vince already won that bucket a week ago. Have fun with it, Vince - and post pictures.
