So I'm still about 2 months out from my armor but I thought I would go ahead and start this. Looking over stuff I will also have enough stuff to do the Desert version of the Captian but my bucket has already been painted and weathered for STS. I am about to just dump a bunch of photos of everything I have done and have here. At the end I will post pics of my backpack work, medium Spanish pouch (bought so I would have something bigger on me for longer troops), and the Bapty conversion I am in the middle of on my DD E-11 (I had origonaly planned to do an ESB TK when I built it but caught the dirty bug in the middle so finished it off with bapty in mind but never finished the conversion). So here it goes:

OK so I have ordered a bag of 100 snaps, nomex gloves, and have bought 1" black nylon webbing, 1 1/2" white elastic, parachute buckle for garters, snap tool, black men's compression shirt, black women's leggings, black Chelsea boots that need to be painted, giant Stanley lockable rolling case. I need to get more glue and pop rivets and need to by magnets, clamps, lexar scissors, white canvas belt, and leather stripper and white leather paint...

I think that is everything.

Oh and the armor of course (just a month to a month and a half out!).

I've been really bad about keeping my threads updated. But I just talked to ATA yesterday and he is currently working on the June orders from last year. I'm a July order so I'm very close!

Just a few quick photos that most of you have probably seen on some of my other threads.

No. I was saying I will have enough extra stuff to but together a desert captain as well but I'm doing the Docking Bay 97 "stop that ship" trooper. The buckets paint job was focused on that.

OK! So I started working on the biceps and forearms. I'm ofcourse already having issues (see my screen name) with the biceps.

If anyone has any suggestions about the points the seems come to please see this thread I just started:

Otherwise it's picture time!

What's the difference with the updated back plate vs previous versions? What should we be looking for?

Actually just from a casual glance around FISD I think this may be the updated back plate. What say all of you?
