bdgr Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Hello everyone. My name is Eric and I'm in the Ohio Garrision. With some of my other 501st costumes near completion or completed, I've started to do a TK and a TD. I was originally going to do an ANH TK first, but while waiting for my armor to arrive, I notice some great deals for a field backpack, so I will now be doing a TD. Looking forward to joining the sandy side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplehaze Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Hi everyone, Andrew from Melbourne Australia here, Just a quick line to say hi and intro myself. Having been a fan since 1977 aged 11 i was only made aware & introduced to the 501st about 4 months ago & instantly joined the MEPD once i was showen your website. its tax time here down under & i already have the tax refund spent on an AM kit, eFX helmet, boots & Paldron. in the mean time i have been keeping busy building my T21 for trooping following Pandatroopers sensational build tutorial (i plan to follow his weathering tips aswell), one thing as i plan to order a sargents pauldron (seems to be a lot of Captains) but i like the T21 dose the pose a problem when applying for MEPD deployment as the sargent usually carries the DLT 19 or E 11. any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again Andrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EarlyGerm Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Hey guys, Adam from NZ here. Looking to build my first official kit for 501st approval, always loved the sandtroopers so i'm thinking why not build one! Right now i'm looking to get some AP armour in the next few weeks and start my journey there. Will take some time to finish as i'm a student so funds are a lil' tight right now but i'm sure i'll make do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
