TD-1536 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I've been re-tooling my original TE clean set of armor, going to wear it this weekend at Farpoint. The armor is original TE, the helmet is a bumpy cap TE2, painted ESB with correct decals and paint chips. Got the holster on the correct side but am missing the correct hand-backs. (Paul, help me out!) and I also totally re-did the strapping with the correct rivets, etc. I also pulled out a stick of drawing lead to mark up every piece with scuff marks... I must say, it looks 100% better that way, so much more authentic I don't know why I didn't do it sooner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobody Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Looks awesome Mike, I wish that I was thin enough that my abb and back armor would meet on the sides. You are the perfect size for a stormtrooper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jango_Fett_Jr Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Awesome!! I'm entirely jealous that it's taken me so long to get my ESB trooper together, but seeing yours gives me an idea of how well it'll pay off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Really Nice work Guys, I have two ESB Helmets but both of yours look amazing. I'll have to get me one of them TE2 buckets I think.

TD-1536 Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 Since we're on the topic of ESB troopers, this one in particular really irks me... I'm glad Lando shot him. WHAT IS UP WITH HIS PANTS!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuneSoldat Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Is that the "I got caught in the bathroom" trooper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk7602 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 sweet looking trooper! i had started to go ESB at one point, but then i got re-deployed to tatooine ditto on the "lack of side gap" envy. i've gone from 4 inches on each side down to around 1.5 though, so i'm on my way! as for that last trooper, i think he's the "crap my straps broke and no-one noticed" trooper.
