As i all i have is a helmet, i obviously cannot partake in the movie, but i thought id give you a suggestion: Whatever story you go for, make sure that you get someone to storyboard it first. There may be some scenes where it is prefereble for most people to join up someplace and film, but for scenes where there is not much movement you can have members film themselves infront of a greenscreen (a green carpet or something similar), so that they can join in the movie even though they may not have the funds for a planeticket to go to the prefered dessert (or wherever you plan on shooting the movie). Most movie editing programs that are worth using have the capability of "blocking out" the greenscreen with fairly little effort. Then all you have to do is place them in the scene and adjust colorbalance and all that, and perhaps add some shadows. If people have poor cameras they can just be placed further back in the scene as it will not be that visible, and you could get away with blurring them a little. That way most members should be able to partake, even though all the MEPD brothers are spread all around the world. Good luck with the project, i hope you guys make it!

I have not been on here for a while, so i thought i should say that the upgrade to the site is really good, i love it! Great work!

That turned out really nice!

Great work! Looks perfect to me! Looking forward to see what you do with the weathering!

really cool! good work!

Looking really good! Only suggestion is that it looks like the arch of the black brow is a bit higher up on the right side than the left on the original? (right side when we look at the picture, not right side when wearing). But that might only be because of the angle the picture is taken, i am not sure. Anyway, it looks really good, keep up the good work!

I can see all the pictures, good work so far! Cant wait to see the weathering!

Looking real good! Great work!

That looks really nice! Good work!

Good work! Keep it up, take your time, and take pictures!

Hope to have you back asap! Good luck with whatever is going on!

Good work WoodChuck, you never seize to amaze me!

The picture did not show automatically for me but it works if you click the link!

not so good with PS but i tried =)

Apparently some people water down acrylic paint to thin it out, then wipe it all over an armor piece, then wipe off with a piece of cloth so that the paint sticks in the dents and cracks in the armor, but not elsewhere. See a lot of it over at the clonetrooper forums. Perhaps that is what you are thinking of?

Amazing as always! Great work buddy! =)

That looks really nice Rolf, very realistic! Good work as usual! Only suggestion might be to weather the hose thingy (the one that looks like what you use to water plants in the garden except it is metal) because it stands a bit out! =)

Really nice (as always!) Thanks for the tutorial as well! =)

Looking good there buddy! Thanks for sharing the cool pics!

Great work! Really cool looking armor, thumbs up from me! =)

Keep up the good work!

I think he meant that he scratchbuilt the rest, except the radio? Anyways, it looks good, but i am no expert on the field packs, so i have no idea if it is accurate or not! Keep up the good work!

Very nice collection! Cant wait to see the weathering on it! Good luck!

Exciting news! Keep up the good work, im really looking forward to watching the progress on this one!

Looks good! Your new haircut reminds me of that picture where all the sandtroopers have their helmets off infront of a dewback! So now you are even more screen accurate (although you dont actually see the haircuts in the movie) =)
